WWE fans have plenty to look forward to on May 27, with Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes squaring for the second round of their grudge match along with the culmination of the Heavyweight Championship Tournament between AJ Styles and Seth Rollins. Now, just shortly after Gunther made his Monday Night RAW debut, the Intercontentional Champion will be put on the line at the Night of Champions as Mustafa Ali has secured his shot at the title.
Mustafa Ali, who's known for his exceptional agility and quickness, secured his shot at the Intercontinental title after he'd survived a 25-man over-the-top battle royale on the May 15 episode of Monday Night RAW.
Ali's latest triumph represents his first shot at a title belt after failing to snatch the United States Championship from Austin Theory at last year's Hell in a Cell PPV.
Ali has never won a championship in his WWE career and he might have to wait a while to earn his keep. Ali is up against Gunther who is no slouch. Many in the WWE view him as the next big thing and he's being built as such. There are talks that Gunther will hold on to the Intercontinental Championship for as long as possible with a potential feud against Brock Lesnar on the cards.
