Because Why Not, My list of most unlikely to likely as to who has just gotten their noggin caved in from Negan.
I'm to start with less likely and finish with who I think is most likely.
11. Rosita
For whatever reason I feel she is the safest of them there, no disrespect but I just don't feel she has made that big an impact in the show yet to really be the one.
I only reason I could see it being her is to give Abraham some guilt about how he treated her, but yeah, I'd be very surprised if it was Rosita.
10. Aaron
In a big way I feel it would be a massive cop out for it to be Aaron, He is the one character who has been around the least and whilst I like him, I don't think him dying would give Negan the heat from viewers they clearly want, for most part I think Aaron is safe for now.
09. Sasha
Sasha has sort of gotten a bigger role as the show has progressed, and of course has been getting close with Abraham, however I just don't see her as the one who gets it, only reason they might is to once again drive Abraham mad.. But I think Sasha will walk away from this one.
08. Rick
Now then, if you really want to make a big Impact and throw in a humongous swerve, what better way then to kill off the main character himself, however I'd be very surprised if they did, whilst it would certainly be a big swerve I don't think it would be good for the show as a whole.. Andrew Lincoln has teased Rick being killed of in the past, but I don't think It will happen here.
07. Eugene
As of late Eugene has been getting a bit braver and starting to show some usefulness a bit more, so this will be probably be the time to kill him off, but once again I think Eugene will be safe for now.
06. Carl
Like Rick, if you really wanted to throw the ultimate swerve, why not make it the future psycho killer himself?, whilst "If anyone moves, cut the boys other eye out" suggests it isn't Carl, maybe that could be a swerve to make us believe it isn't him, and with the actor getting older maybe they would use this as an excuse to get rid of him, however I doubt it.
05. Michonne
You really want to piss Rick off why not kill off his love Interest?, Michonne is one of the most useful characters in the show and having her killed would be a big blow for Ricks group, but if Negan is anything like his Comicbook version, he is a lot of things, but not a Racist.
------------------------------------------------------
Whilst I guess you shouldn't rule out those 7, I just don't see it being them.. The Top 4 however I think are high possibilities.
04. Maggie
Granted this could be a risky one, but if you want people to hate Negan, killing off a pregnant woman could be the way, however ofcourse it's also a good way to get lots of angry letters and deaththreats etc
. Negan has already teased killed Maggie but maybe he will actually do it this time, This would also put a downer on Glenn and Ricks relationship who could accuse Rick of letting Maggie die.
03. Daryl
Ok you have the new villain, what better way to make people hate him then kill off arguably the most popular character in the whole show who has been there from the start?, Daryl's death has sort of been teased a lot during season 6 and in a way would make a big impact indeed.
The main reason it may not be Daryl?, obviously they want people to watch the show and killing off arguably the most popular character could be a rating killer.
02. Abraham
Honestly 2 and 1 are pretty even at this point, I could easily have swapped either.
Personally I really don't want it to be Abraham but at this point he seems one of the most likely choices.
It does seem Abraham is finally starting to be happy as a character and putting away past demons, this usually means you don't have long left.
His comic death was also given to another character so maybe he was given a little longer this time for this.
Storyline rise he is arguably the toughest of the group and that could be a concern for Negan so get rid of the muscle and you weaken the group.
I hope I'm wrong here but I see Abraham as a strong candidate for meeting Lucille.
01. Glenn
Of course, the Character who gets it in the Comics. Once again we have seen that Glenn is about to become a Dad and is also one of the characters who has been in the show since Season 1, of all characters it does seem Glenn has had the most lucky escapes and maybe it's time for his luck to run out.
The only reason I think it might not be Glenn is perhaps having it be Glenn could be a little to predictable, why have all this hype just to be the same guy from the Comics?
Either way he remains my most likely choice, but Abraham is pretty close.
----------------------------------
That's how I see it.
