Chris Jericho has Most Reigns with the Intercontinental Championship:
Chris Jericho is one of the most underrated assets of the WWE. This champion performer who defeated The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin on the same night holds the record for the most reigns as the Intercontinental Champion. Jericho has held this prestigious title 9 times. He first became the champion in the early stages of his career when he was a below-the-card performer. The later stints came after his thunderous comeback at the Royal Rumble. One can never forget the “Walls of Jericho” as his signature move. His moonsault was a treat to watch.
The Miz is Second:
The Miz happens to be the second on this list with 8 successful reigns as the champion. The Miz is also famous for its off-the-mat antiques. It is either his girlfriend Maryse or his homie Ted Debiase Junior who helped him hold the title. However, the WWE has never seen a better trash talker than The Miz. With the microphone in his hand is an amazing performer. In the ring, his “The Skull-Crushing Finale” is a treat to watch.
