WrestleVotes provided an update on potential plans for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 41 during a Live Q&A on Backstage Pass.
I haven’t heard anything officially. I think what we saw last night between Bron Breakker and AJ Styles makes a lot of sense. But they can go a lot of different ways with Bron, and I don’t think AJ Styles is a wrong decision if that’s the match. So, I’d expect a bigger name. I’ll leave it at that. You know a bigger name for Bron Breakker’s opponent, and AJ Styles fits that bill.
The potential match-up gained momentum after their interaction on Raw, where Breakker attempted to spear Styles but hit Dominik Mysterio instead when The Phenomenal One evaded the move. Breakker’s last Intercontinental Championship defense occurred at Saturday Night’s Main Event 2025 where he retained against Sheamus.
