 | | This seems to have been recently retconned by WWE, who now claim on their official title histories page that Patterson brought his WWF North American Championship to Brazil and won a tournament to unify his belt with the "South American Championship" (a non-existent title) to become the Intercontinental Champion. |
 | | This plan was abandoned and the Intercontinental Championship was unified with the World Heavyweight Championship on October 20, 2002, when then-World Heavyweight Champion, Triple H, defeated the Intercontinental Champion, Kane. |
 | | When revived, the belt received a facelift of sorts - namely, a nameplate was added, a change which had been made to every other WWE championship belt after the introduction of the unified WWE Undisputed Championship belt. |
