Vince McMahon will resurrect the AWA. He'll get a deal with Lifetime or Court TV. That's why Lawler has been so active lately. Ahmed johnson and Rick Martel will show up with Sunny in their corner. Animal will have a job again other than hangin out at Ohio State football games. Then Paul Birchill will win the Rumble. He'll show up at Wrestlemania for his title shot and Johnny Depp will come out dressed like Jack Sparrow to stand in his corner for moral support. Drew Carey will be in the rumble again, too. Jim Carrey will not. Carey Grant won't either. Val Venis might. ECW will have December to Disregard once again. The king of the ring this year will be one of the Highlanders. Stone Cold will manage Cryme Tyme. Kurt Angle's neck will break when he fights A.J. Styles or Christpher Daniels. Sting will get hurt (his feelings, not his ribs or anything). Abyss will call out Foley. The Rock has left the building. Hogan will fight Nash for the X division title in a "my knees won't allow me to run on the beach" match. And HBK/Dreamer/Richards will be the match of the year (yeah right, like Vince would be smart enough to book that one).

The King of Kings will return to his throne sooner rather than later. Once DX destroys Team Rated RKO a few more times, HHH will turn his attention back to the WWE Championship. Cena will have defeated Umaga, so will we get another HHH/Cena match at Wrestlemania? I hope not b/c I’m not sure what they would do to try to top those corny entrances from last year’s Mania. Hulk Hogan will wrestle Big Show at Wrestlemania in what many predict to be both’s last match. However, Hogan will be back by Summerslam, since he wrestled there the past couple of years anyway. The WWE will once again forget that they have tag team titles after Cryme Tyme wins the titles. A few more divas will get hurt. Gregory Helms will defend his cruiserweight title about 3 times all year due to lack of competition. Mr. Kennedy will be moved to Raw and hopefully CM Punk will be saved from the sinking ship that is ECW. TNA will still put on solid shows, but their TV ratings will not improve. A few more WWE stars may jump ship, but it won’t help. 
- Ernie Ballard

Another major WWE star will defect to TNA. The initials...RVD! TNA will crack the 1.5 mark in the ratings by years end WWE's PPV buyrates will continue to fall and Creative will still have no idea why. Samoa Joe will FINALLY win the NWA title this year. The seed of HHH will win the Cruiserweight championship when it learns to walk. 
- Trace Armstrong

The Miz will become US Champ on Smackdown (God help us all, but I think he's got what it takes to make it up that far. I would pay money to see him get beat up. Not your money either, but my own.) * Randy Orton will feud with Cena and win the WWE Title. * ECW won't die in 2007, in fact after an initial downward toilet-bowl spiral period it will get much better * Ric Flair gets get so worked up on Raw that he actually has a heart attack * Finlay wins the World Title on Smackdown * RVD will NOT quit WWE for TNA. * Just when we have forgotten about Mark Henry, he will come back and despite working really hard will suck the life out of at least two feuds that were doing fine till he came along. * Tommy Dreamer will go on a rampage and remain undefeated for 12 months * CM Punk will job to Bobby Lashley at Wrestlemania
- Barry Cronin

Randy Orton will win the Royal Rumble and then go on to win the WWE title at 'mania and be turned babyface since it's what they've wanted to do with him since the beginning. - Mr. Kennedy will win the World Heavyweight Championship. - Matt Hardy will win the U.S. Championship. - MVP will win the U.S. Championship. - Carlito will win the Money in the Bank ladder match at 'mania. - Umaga will win the WWE title from John Cena at New Year's Revolution and lose it back to John Cena at the Royal Rumble. (Sound familiar?) - John Cena will be WWE champion at 'mania. - Steve Austin will wrestle at 'mania. - Chris Jericho will return to WWE. - CM Punk will have a strong showing at the Rumble possibly winning and will win the ECW title at 'mania. - Samoa Joe will win the NWA title. - Kurt Angle will win the NWA title. - Brock Lesnar will return to WWE. - Homicide will win and hold the ROH title for the better part of 2007.

I'm sure looking forward to plenty more naked man-ass next year. We all know how popular that is. Man-ass=comedy gold. Cena, god bless him, will remain as the top babyface in the company despite being the most hated wrestler in the company. ECW will.........die, I guess. But then again, it was never really born again in the first place. It was sort of a fetus, who never reached the final stage of becoming a human, and then they killed the mother (Heyman). We probably haven't seen the end of Big Dick Johnson (Hehehe, Dick), though he'll probably be fired, jump to TNA, and form a tag team with Super Porky (And we all know with Russo booking, it's probably more likely than it is funny).
- Blair Tyler

* Raw will have no real Mania main event. * Citing financial troubles and lack on main stream media, the WWE hires a homeless Kevin Federline and has him win the ECW title, cause anyone can win that. Following this, they hire David Arquette to beat him. * The WWE will scale back PPV's from 234 a year, to 233. * DX will disband. * Tag Titles will STILL no longer mean anything. * Jeff Jarrett will come back...sadly. * CM Punk will become a mega star. * Smackdown will fall, having no major new storylines, except the renewed push of Rey Mysterio which focuses on him living through Eddie Guerrero. * Kennedy will be a major breakout star. * Kennedy. * Not so much a prediction, but has anyone noticed that Triple H hasn't held a title since WM 21?
- Adam Airforce

The Royal Rumble, despite being split between three brands will continue the trend of being below average for a once in a year event and the ECW guys will probably be the jobbers of the match with a Raw winner. ECW will get a new wrestler to face Lashley. Smackdown will try to revive the cruiserweight division. The women's title will all but be retired. More WWE wrestlers jump to TNA. TNA will come close to equaling WWE PPV buy rates. DX will disband at Wrestlemania and Kane and Undertaker will face each other.
