The Miz defeated Zack Ryder to become the brand new Intercontinental Champion on Monday night's post-WrestleMania 32 edition of Raw. The victory came about after Ryder was distracted by Miz's wife, former WWE Diva Maryse, slapping Ryder's father at ringside, which allowed Miz to get the victory.

Miz's win marks his fifth reign as champion.
