Intercontinental Title Match Set For 4/30 WWE SmackDown
Big E will get his rematch.
WWE announced that Big E will challenge Apollo Crews for the Intercontinental Championship on the April 30 episode of WWE SmackDown.
Crews defeated Big E at WrestleMania 37 in a Nigerian Drum Fight to win the Intercontinental Championship when Commander Azeez showed up and took out Big E.
Big E was hoping to get his rematch on the April 23 episode, but Kevin Owens received the match instead. Crews was victorious over Owens following a distraction from Commander Azeez.
In a backstage segment following the bout, Big E attacked Crews to set up the rematch next Friday.
