Here's the predictions that were made last year. For reference, here's mine:
-Either Shawn Michaels or Undertaker are retiring in 2009. And regardless of whether they wrestle each other or not, Undertaker is winning at 'Mania, and HBK is losing.
-Jericho ends his streak of getting arbitrarily thrown into Money in the Bank at Wrestlemania and gets himself a 1 on 1 match versus CM Punk. It steals the show.
-Mr. Kennedy gets himself a midcard title, main event push, and an injury. Not necessarily in that order. No world title for him this year, except maybe ECW.
-Colt Cabana wins the world championship. That's right, the ROH World Championship.
-Somebody is going to get wellness'd out of the company. Not a major guy, but somebody notable.
-Matt Hardy is going to get the same "can't win the big one" storyline that Jeff got this year. But by year's end, Matt still won't have won the big one.
-Orton wins the Royal Rumble. Faces Cena at Wrestlemania, loses, but then wins the belt a month or two later. Eventually turns into a tweener type of face.
-MVP wins Money in the Bank, unsuccessfully cashes in the briefcase, begins his chase for the title and eventually wins it.
-Kelly Kelly wins Women's Championship, becomes new face of women's division.
-Jack Swagger gets pushed to the moon, but lack of promo ability gives him Lashley-like levels of apathy.
-John Morrison gets a main event level feud. Doesn't win, but gets established as a top tier guy.
-The Brian Kendrick gets depushed, gets released/quits.
-Christian stays in TNA.
-But Kurt Angle doesn't. Goes to Raw, wins title.
-Kevin Thorn, Funaki, and Hardcore Holly all run out of luck and finally get released.
A few thing I was way off base on, but all in all a solid effort.
