(JG Note: This is the first round of reader predictions for 2009. We will have more predictions, as well as the 2008 Year End Award Winners, over the next week. You can still send along your predictions to 2008@worldwrestlinginsanity.com)

"Batista calls it a day and retires

At least one of the current "Main Event Mafia" will appear on WWE programming before the end of 2009

TNA will have at least one 5* match. unfortunately for those involved, they will subsequently be squashed by Kevin Nash

Jeff Hardy will win the WWE Title

Kofi Kingston, Evan Bourne, and Jack Swagger will all be major players by the end of the year. If there's any justice; Kofi, CM Punk, and Bourne will be given the massive exposure guys of their size deserve. Kingston especially excites the heck out of me; I think he's an incredible and charismatic talent.

John Cena and Randy Orton's edgey personalities will win them more fans than their previous incarnations combined.

HHH will win a World/WWE Title again (because the year has a 2 in it)

Samoa Joe will still be booked to look like s**t by TNA. If i want to be really bold; there will be rumours of his jumping to WWE before the end of 2009 unless TNA get their act together.

I will buy a Kofi Kingston "Jamaican Me Crazy" t-shirt"
- Mark in London

"1. Triple H winning at least three more World Titles to put him towards his goal of 17.

2. Jeff Hardy finally straightening out enough to capture a World Title.

3. I see Money in the Bank for Kofi which will lead to him being the first Loser in the Bank.

4. I see Batista whining his way over John Cena at Wrestlemania but also his age and his body wearing him out of full time wrestling before the end of the year.

5. I see Intercontinental Gold for Evan Bourne.

6. And last I see another mass firing somewhere down the line, which will include some comination of a whole ton of rookies who never got past ECW, Ryder, Hawkins, Val Venis, some divas, Goldust (again), Hardcore Holly, Manu, D-Lo Brown, Dolph Ziggler, and Vickie Guerrero."
- Chris Hageman

"-CM punk will win the world title agian.

-HBk and JBL will have a awesome feud that will end at WrestleMania.

-TNA will headline a PPV with Kurt Angle and MIck Foley in a Loser Goes to WWE match. Not that either guy will really go, but just so TNA will have a excuse to mention WWE every week.

- Evan Bourne will win Money in the bank and challange Cm punk and have a awesome match at Summerslam."

- Matthew Campagna

"* Jeff Hardy will win the WWE Title (I hope).
* Miz and Morrison will continue to be the best in the company as a tag team.
* Kizarny, that new Fallen Angel copycat and Dolph Ziggler will all be wished the best on their future endeavors.
* The Undertaker will get progressively more generic and lame.
* Edge will continue to be the leader of the company.
* Triple H will get progressively more generic and lame.
* Shawn Michaels will be more bald, and more lazy eyed.
* No one will take Mr. Kennedy seriously....seriously.
* Behind Enemy Lines 3 and the Marine 2 will be awful.
* MVP will set a WWE record of 500 consecutive losses.
* Ric Flair will "Leave the Memories Alone."
* Vince McMahon will return and the TNA Legends Title.
* ANGLE IS WWE, SEPTEMBER 2009
* Undertaker will get even more progressively lamer, how dead can he be?"
- Adam Airforce

"Tommy Dreamer will get fired and go to TNA. Canadian Bulldog and Aaron Wood have a grudge match; Aaron loses an eye and bulldog loses a tooth like Benoit did. Shawn will consider retirement, then get the itch to have another title run. Big Daddy V will return and throw up in the ring. Boogey man will get better in the ring and Vince will decide to have him do split personalities, one without the make-up. Bruno Sanmartino and Macho man will create their own Hall of Fame. Stephanie will say stupid sh*t about her and HHH and continue to confuse fans not in the loop. Sting will pull a hamstring. Kurt Angle will get hurt. Jeff Jarrett will have sex with Velvet Sky. Then he'll give me a turn..."
