At The Bash, Intercontinental Championship Chris Jericho will go head-to-head with Rey Mysterio for the third time in less than two months. But this time, Mysterio is risking his mask for another chance to win the gold that both Superstars hold so dear.

Both men have written their own chapters in the Intercontinental Championship record books. During an interview with Jim Ross and Todd Grisham on SmackDown, Mysterio voiced his hope to one day be among the greatest Intercontinental Champions of all time. And Chris Jericho leads all WWE Superstars in history, holding the championship for a record ninth time.

After Mysterio successfully defended his title at Judgment Day, Jericho ripped Mysterio’s mask off at Extreme Rules as he was going for the 619. And before anyone could catch their breath, he quickly followed up to pin the stunned Superstar, taking his gold and his dignity in a flash.

Jericho has insisted his adversary “panders” to the WWE Universe and claimed that he is a coward who “hides behind a mask.” But now, Mysterio will be forced to put his entire heritage on the line.

Mysterio's iconic mask, as is tradition with luchadors, is his whole identity and immense source of pride to him, both personally and professionally. And Jericho has continued to exploit it to win matches against Mysterio, threatening to expose Rey's face to the world permanently.

In this rubber match between perhaps the two greatest Intercontinental Champions of all time, will Mysterio's iconic identity be stripped from him forever? Or will Rey strip away Jericho's cherished championship? We find out in Sacramento June 28.
