Since its premiere in 1979, the Intercontinental Championship has been one of the WWE's top contested titles and one of the most sought-after championships in pro wrestling over the last 40 years. Can you name all the holders of the long-regarded "work horse" championship?
Note: Quiz updated once a year after WrestleMania.
Alternate spellings may exist for some names that might be more difficult to spell. Wrestlers who appeared under alternate names and characters can be guessed with just one of those names.

"Date Won" means the calendar date on which the wrestler won the title, not the WWE "recognised" date. "R#" corresponds to the cumulative reign number for that respective champion.
Vacant: On a number of occasions and for a variety of reasons, the IC title has been vacated by its holder. The date relating to each vacancy is when the champion relinquished the belt. There is one exception: the vacancy on 1/3/2000 occured when the two wrestlers simultaneously pinned one another. Some sources credit the time between then and the next reign as both wrestlers being co-holders of the belt, but WWE themselves regard this as a vacancy and for the purposes of this quiz it shall be regarded as such.
