Back in 1992 on a UK tour Jake The Snake beat Mr Perfect for the IC Title at the Birmingham NEC but not only was it never acknowledged by WWE/F, for the rest of the tour Hennig remained IC champion. Many believed Perfect must have been injured and called an audible or failed to kick out in time but those in attendance said it looked like a 'legitimate' pin.

Obviously with the internet they'd have to run with the change if it happened now but it shows title changes do occasionally happen on tours. Plus when HBK beat Davey Boy in Birmingham that time a few years ago, nobody expected it as Davey never lost over here.
