According to a report from F4WOnline.com, WWE looks like they're going to go ahead with unifying the WWE Intercontinental & United States Championships. The report states that a title unification match is "likely" slated to be part of the Elimination Chamber ppv. Incidentally, this year's Elimination Chamber ppv falls on February 23rd, the day before subscribers can sign up for the WWE Network.
Since it was announced that WWE was unifying the WWE & World Heavyweight Championships, a fairly common topic of discussion has revolved around the unification of WWE's two mid-card championships. A few weeks back, WWE itself teased the possibility of unifying the titles with an article on WWE.com when the question was posed to Big E. Langston & Dean Ambrose. WWE doing this and going so far as to mention the article several times on television gave the notion some stability.
IF this is the plan, personally, I'd like to see a series of matches between Ambrose & Langston over the course of the next month or so, culminating in one final bout at Elimination Chamber. A series could put them on a more even kilter with both men earning decisive and clear wins over the other as a means of building up hype for the final match. As things stand right now, I'd be very surprised if Langston doesn't unify the titles. Given that Langston is the IC champ, it goes without saying that he'll probably come out the winner no matter how the feud is build up, as the IC title is the WWE created championship. However, a series of competitive matches between them could at least give the impression that both have a near even shot of coming out the winner.
