Dominik Mysterio is Intercontinental Champion.

Mysterio outlasted three other men at WrestleMania 41 Sunday to become the new champion. The finish of the match had Finn Balor lay out Breakker with the coup de gras. However, Mysterio was ready on the top rope and pinned Balor to become champion for the first time.

Breakker had been champion for over 180 days, defeating Jey Uso back in October on an episode of Raw. It was his second reign as champion, defeating Sami Zayn last year.

Breakker had wins over Penta, Balor, and Mysterio in the weeks leading to the match. He had also successfully defended the title against Penta and Balor. During that time, dissension also grew between Mysterio and Balor, with Liv Morgan encouraging Mysterio to get involved and put himself in the title picture.

This was the first title change of the second night of WrestleMania 41. In the opener, IYO SKY retained the Women’s World title over Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley.
