• Possible New Intercontinental Title Match For WrestleMania 34

It was previously reported how Braun Strowman was in line for an Intercontinental Title shot at WrestleMania 34, but it looks like that’s not the case anymore.

With Strowman possibly being involved in a mixed tag team match at WrestleMania 34 with Ronda Rousey, WWE officials are discussing former Universal Champion Finn Balor facing The Miz for the Intercontinental Title at WrestleMania 34.

With that being said, The Balor Club (Finn Balor, Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson) taking on The Miztourage (The Miz, Curtis Axel & Bo Dallas) in 6 man tag team matches might take place at upcoming WWE Live Event matches.

Finn Balor lost his opportunity to get a chance of main eventing WrestleMania 34 when he lost to John Cena in the main event of this week’s Raw. With that win, Cena qualified for the Men’s Elimination Chamber match – Winner of this match will face Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 34.
