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:
:leon: I'll take Angle (or anyone for that matter) over Foley

I was just thinking he'll be in the crowd for one of those NXT Takeovers and they'll show him clapping lol and that will be the Kurt Angle return. :heh: Although I remember someone posting that 2K indirectly makes returns possible by trying to include them in the video game (e.g., Warrior, Goldberg). Maybe we need to pressure 2K into getting Kurt in 2K18 :blessed:

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
Literally none of this will happen.

- Undertaker will get seriously injured in the ring like Sting, or retires before that happens

- Finn Balor will return from injury to another ridiculous push, will fail to deliver again (either through injury or just flat out awful champion)

- NXT will stall even further as homegrown talent continues to falter and Trips runs out of indie talent from other promotions to sign for drawing power

- Cody Rhodes will make fools out of all the people who doubted and belittled him for leaving the E

- The Hardy's leave TNA and spread their broken/deletion gimmick to multiple indie promotions

- The New Day will break up but not one of them will get a memorable singles run

- CM Punk will return to wrestling in some capacity, most likely a commentator

- Mickie James and Nikki Bella will have a feud over Cena even though Cena will acknowledge neither of them on a show that isn't Total Bellas/Divas

- Braun Strowman, Baron Corbin and Big Cass will all win singles titles this year, but marks will continue to complain that the E does not build new stars

- Roman and Seth will continue to compete at the top of the card throughout the year even though both characters will have grown stale by WM

- Sasha Banks will not be in the title picture again until Summerslam at the earliest, Charlotte will remain dominant champ

Chuck loses and regains the title 6 times
New Day breaks up
Emmalina still doesn't debut

That's all I got off top.

  • 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.


Becky is doing alright as face but she's a heel...she control matches and works over body parts too masterfully. She can definitely switch roles.
