The Walking Dead: Which Season 7 Spoilers Are True?
'Who did Negan kill?'This question has become the most talked-about topic in pop culture since the [...]
Glenn or Abraham Get The Bat
Almost every source of spoilers has narrowed Negan's victim down to one of these two men.
Due to Glenn's death at this point in the comics, and Abraham's completed story arc, many feel as though either one of these men being killed makes total sense.
In issue #100 of the comics, Negan appeared, exactly as he did in the series, and killed Glenn. The show has sometimes strayed from its source material, but this was a big moment for fans of the books.
Abraham actor, Michael Cudlitz, has been overly talkative about the character's relationship with Negan. In a show that has kept secrets on lock down, it seems this may be a diversion tactic.
Verdict: Very Likely
prevnextGlenn AND Abraham Get The Bat
One of the more popular rumors out there states that, instead of taking just one victim, Negan will slaughter two main characters.
Spoiling Dead Fans has reported that the sequence will go as follows:
"Abe will be killed first, followed by Glenn. Daryl, who tries to interfere after the beating of Abe, will be taken by Negan and will apparently not like dog food sandwiches."
According to this source, after Negan kills Abraham with Lucille, Daryl will try and intervene. This causes Negan to be even more upset, and he takes his frustration out on Glenn.
This would be heartbreaking for fans, but the series has broken many hearts in the past.
Verdict: Likely
prevnextCarol Doesn't Last Very Long
Carol was in bad shape heading into season seven, that much is for sure. She was willing to walk into a firefight, for seemingly no reason at all. Her attitude has completely shifted, and many are questioning whether or not she even wants to live.
Melissa McBride, the actress who portrays Carol, has revealed in multiple interviews that the chacter has lost much of her hope in her group, and herself.
This could be a sign that Carol is on the way out, but it could also mean that she is being set up for another important arc this season.
Verdict: Not Very Likely
prevnextRick Loses Control
After a few recent incidents, Rick's leadership has come into question. His decisions lead to multiple deaths in Alexandria, and it was his call to slaughter a number of Negan's men in their sleep.
With Spencer back at the community, it wouldn't be crazy to think he would be rallying his friends against Rick - especially when the group returns without a member or two. This is the event that could turn the tide, and have others doubting Rick's ability to lead.
In the comics, Spencer does exactly that. He plots to overthrow Rick when he's at his weakest, and put control of Alexandria back into his family's hands.
The rumor hasn't been talked about much, but the source material shows that this could be a valid story in season seven.
Verdict: Likely
prevnextTara Introduces Oceanside
When last season ended, Tara and Heath were out on a supply run. It was clear they had run into some danger, but nothing has been clear regarding the whereabouts of the two characters.
In one of the season seven trailers, Tara is seen running from something, but Heath isn't around. Many have speculated he died, but there has been nothing more to support that theory.
What has surfaced, however, is a rumor that Tara was seen filming a few scenes on a beach, with a character names Jennie. According to Spoiling Dead Fans, Tara washes up on shore, and Jennie helps her get back on her feet. This is rumored to be the beginning of another settlement from the comics: Oceanside.
No one is sure how Tara would have ended up in the water, or where Keith is, but it would make sense for Tara's character to have a heavy involvement with Oceanside.
In the comics, Michonne deals with the boat community often, as a way to deal with loss. Since her relationships have shifted on the show, odds are that role would have to be given to someone else.
Verdict: Likely
prevnextDaryl Takes Carl's Place
In the comics, Negan and Carl develop a unique relationship. After Negan comes to Alexandria for his first supply run, Carl sneaks onto his truck and hitches a ride back to Sanctuary. Upon arriving, Carl unloads an automatic weapon, killing many of the Saviors.
Negan is angered by this, but chooses to take Carl under his wing. The boy is kept at Sanctuary for some time, and this allows the readers to get a glimpse at life with Negan. Through this experience, we are able to learn a lot about his psyche and how he functions.
In addition, this relationship alters Carl's views on his father's leadership, setting up many interesting scenarios down the road.
Many sources have indicated that Daryl will be taken back to Sanctuary after the next episode, and many of these interactions will be given to him.
While he may be taken by Negan, the notion that the show would skip out on a great dynamic between Carl and Negan is a difficult thought to bear.
Verdict: Not Very Likely
