since last years thread got bumped we might as well see what people think is gonna happen next year :lupe:

here's mines, some kinda obvious :russ:

-Reigns wins the Universal title, will happen before or at WM 33
-Cena beats AJ for his 16th reign
-Miz feuds with Cena for the title and wins
-Asuka debuts on Raw, Bayley beats Charlotte for the title after a long feud and feuds with Asuka
-Brock vs Goldberg 3 happens
-New Day breaks up, Enzo & Cass get the RAW titles
-RAW & SD Live have some kind of major trade or they "shake things up again"
-Kurt Angle returns either for WM season or when 2K18 drops

Last year I went safe. Let's go a little more crazy this year.

-Shinsuke Nakamura and Samoa Joe will be called up (duh).

-Barring injuries, AJ Styles will have another year of greatness (duh).

-Hall of Fame 2017: Diamond Dallas Page, the Steiner Brothers, the Midnight Express w/Jim Cornette, Owen Hart, Ivan Koloff, Rick Rude

-Jericho will win a major title (maybe his last one)

-KENTA won't last in the E for much long, will return to Japan to feed off steroids fighting spirit and be himself again.

-WWE will extend his global territory to Asia, having a similar tournament to the British one, and will steal at least one another major Japanese name (not Okada :birdman:)

-Also, the Network will start airing indie shows, but not ROH. Maybe a couple British ones.

-The Shield will reunite... briefly. One of them will get injured cutting short their new run.

-Jack Gallagher will be such a successful character that will transcend the cruiserweight division and get showcased in the Raw or SD main event (If that cartoon James Ellsworth could, why not)

-Cesaro will finally have a successful main event singles career.

-Lucha Underground won't have a season 4. Yes, I know for the most part is very good and interesting, but is also a small niche product and ratings don't justify the production values.

-CM Punk will desist of this UFC foolishness and will go to New Japan, but NOT as part of the Bullet Club. He'll be the head of a new unit when CHAOS finally disbands.

-The Miz will be fired :mjgrin:

-Smackdown will surpass Raw's ratings at least one time.

-Matt Hardy will make "The Infinite Deletion", a full month of broken-themed TNA shows, exhausting the concept forever.

And of course, TNA will somehow survive 2017

Samoa Joe title reign

either Jeff or Kurt comin byke

Cena doesnt get 16 (wishful thinking)

Brand split loses integrity and we get at least 4 PPVs with cross promotion matches

TNA survives again

Samoa Joe and Nakamura gonna be in the main event scene by the end of the year

Rumble winner gonna be Jericho, Taker, or Nakamura

Payoff for Wyatt/Orton is gonna suck

Bubba or Cody coming back by end of year

The Swamp
- Samoa Joe will make his main roster debut at the Royal Rumble, and he'll be eliminated by Dean Ambrose
- Tye Dillinger will also make his main roster debut at the Royal Rumble. He'll be put on RAW, get over, but they'll stick him in feuds with Titus & Bo Dallas killing his momentum
- Finn Balor will return at & win the Royal Rumble by eliminating Jericho (via Kevin Owens fukkery)
- Kevin Owens will lose the Universal Championship to Jericho before 'Mania
- Kevin Owens vs. Finn Balor vs. Chris Jericho at 'Mania for the Universal Championship
- AJ Styles will lose the title some point before Wrestlemania, turn full blown babyface without changing his character at all and he'll end up feuding with either Miz or Baron Corbin going into 'Mania
- Nakamura will make his main roster debut on RAW the night after Wrestlemania & win the Universal title before the end of the year

  • Reigns vs. Cena will happen at SummerSlam and Reigns will win.
  • Naomi will win her first Women's Championship in 2017.
  • Shaq will pull out a Vader Bomb at WrestleMania on Big Show.
  • Mojo Rawley will form a tag team with Apollo Crews since Zack Ryder is injured. Once Zack is back, they'll all be Hype Bros.... until one of them (Apollo or Zack) turns on the other two.
  • AJ Styles will get sent to Raw because Vince wants more stars. However, he'll find limited success because they won't know what to do with him (sort of like whenever Edge was on Raw and not on Smackdown).
  • Bray Wyatt will have a winning record in singles matches on PPVs.
  • Kurt Angle will make a cameo appearance on WWE TV (Raw, Smackdown or NXT).
  • Alexa Bliss will get turned face for merchandise/marketability reasons and Becky Lynch will turn heel for character development reasons. Both turns will sorta work since they'll try their best to make it work, but it'll be obvious what their true calling in face/heel alignments in their careers will be.
  • Carmella's gossiping gimmick will be used as a device to advance angles between different superstars and might even get her her own talk show segment.

Kurt Angle will replace Mick Foley as GM of RAW. They'll tease the old sexual tension between Kurt & Stephanie by having Triple H get mad :umad:
