While it has been revealed that Dirty Dominik Mysterio has picked up a legitimate shoulder injury, there could be a brand new Intercontinental Champion on WWE Raw.
With some continued concern over what the future might hold for the current WWE Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio —there could be a brand new title holder on the horizon.
Here are five brand new WWE Intercontinental Champions that could take over the IC title on WWE Raw.
5. Penta
Potentially a solid choice to take up the mantle of the Intercontinental Championship on WWE Raw could be PENTA.
After becoming a fan favorite since his arrival, it would make complete sense to see PENTA win a championship in WWE in 2026.
With his sights set on the Intercontinental Championship in the past, now could be the the perfect time to see him bring Zero Miedo to the title picture.
Setting up exciting potential feuds with Logan Paul or even a returning Chad Gable — there could certainly be something memorable made out of a unfortunate circumstance.

4. El Grande Americano
Since assuming the role of El Grande Americano after Chad Gable was taken out of action due to injury, Ludwig Kaiser has been a remarkable replacement.
Learning Spanish quickly and then subsequently showing up only speaking Spanish in AAA, the German native has clearly taken the role seriously.
Since he has been a fan favorite in AAA, it might make sense to see El Grande Americano to overthrow the AAA Mega Champion, Dominik Mysterio for specifically the Intercontinental Championship.
Able to go to war in the future for both of the titles and pave an easy road for Mysterio to hold both again, there could be a fun feud forthcoming from El Grande Americano and Dirty Dom.

3. LA Knight
An exciting potential new Intercontinental Champion could be the ‘Megastar’ LA Knight.
While LA Knight had a stellar run on SmackDown with the United States Championship, he has so far failed in his attempts to capture a title on WWE Raw.
Potentially able to take the opportunity to take over the vacated IC title, Knight could utilize Dirty Dom’s injury to stake his claim on Netflix.
Able to feud with any of the top heels on the brand, it could end up becoming a vicious fight out between The Vision and LA Knight over maintaining control over the title.

2. Austin Theory
After the return of Austin Theory to WWE Raw, it seemed certain the latest affiliate of The Vision would gain acclaim soon.
With the potential that the Intercontinental Championship could be up for grabs if Dirty Dominik Mysterio is out with injury, perhaps the best next choice is Austin Theory.
Positioning Theory as an immediately viable threat to any other title in WWE, it would provide added tension in the event he wound up being the only member of The Vision to be holding a title.
With still certainly plenty of storylines left to be played out between Theory and The Vision faction, a win of the IC Title could be just the beginning.

1. Rey Mysterio
A potential replacement for a vacated IC title on WWE Raw that could end up setting up a variety of future stories might be WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio.
Either hanging on to the Intercontinental Championship until Dirty Dom returns or dropping it, the elder Mysterio could certainly spend some time in the near future feuding with The Vision.
Having taken up against the dastardly group in recent weeks, it could end up being not on a viable storyline to give Dom time off but also, see some more legendary moments from Rey Mysterio.
With demonstrated in-ring chemistry with Logan Paul, it could also be Austin Theory or Bronson Reed who ends up having a rivalry against Mysterio in the new year
