Seeing the thumbnail considering KO deal was up in December & he’s fighting Cody for the WWE title at the Royal Rumble in February & has feuds with Sami & Randy set up afterwards I don’t think he’s leaving
Feel bad for saying it, but I’m 25 mins in the episode and it feels genuinely like a waste of time. Especially Luke’s predictions are, as usual, negative towards WWE and very much delusional. The KO thing in particular.
I don’t think he hates WWE he can be very cynical to it sometimes & over defensive of AEW even when the criticisms valid. I just find the KO predictions odd his deal was up this month in December as he signed a 3 year deal with WWE back in December 2021 time & they have him & Cody set up for the 2025 RR which is in February which more or less tells you he signed a new deals & they’ve also set up feuds up with Randy & Sami for after the RR
This is literally the whole Drew McIntyre contract all over again. KO isn't going anywhere. He main evented WM39 with his best friend (practically brother) and won the tag titles, the year before that he main evented WM38 by literally bringing Stone Cold Steve Austin out of retirement, fast forward to this year and he's arguably having the best run of his career in years! Even holding the famed Winged Eagle WWE championship. He's been booked like an absolute star since Triple H took over creative in 2022. He'd be dumb to leave imo especially with the state AEW is in rn
Man I do hope Josh heads there. Three of the biggest I love to see, which if he heads to NXT first then it would be after that, is him being in a feud with Gunther, Chad, and Ilja
As someone who will make £1 bets with my brother over the most stupid stuff when we hang out, I hope the "Oli owes Luke a tenner" gag never dies because Oli always forgetting to have the money is so funny to me
Here’s some of my predictions: 1. Rock AND Austin will wrestle at WM41 2. Cena and Tanahashi will interact at some point in 2025 (not saying they’ll wrestle, just they will be involved with each other in some way, which leads me to…) 3. WWE will work with more outside companies, including NJPW 4. Rey Mysterio will join the list of people retiring in 2025, having his last match against his son, possibly Mask vs Hair. 5. AEW will retire/unify one or more titles 6. Bron Breaker will have a main event match 7. CM Punk will win a world title, and get injured during his reign.
Here's my prediction. In 2025 we will see the first AEW mass release. The kind that will result in Wrestletalk doing a breaking news live stream. It will at least 8 people released over a 3-5 day period.
My hope for this year is that AEW gets a proper booking team for, at least, one of their shows to boost the story quality. And that WWE puts more focus on, at the very least, their women’s division
110% That is something I've been saying for at least a year!! Booker (Not T 😄) for each division! Have writers that have wrestling experience too would be very helpful. TK could still be involved, he would still have final say.
My prediction. Jordynne Grace will leave for NXT but will still be forced to have a match against Tessa Blanchard, which will spark tension in TNA and WWE.
I know that the Jam that jampionship is just a fun story, but that Sat did not do anything with it and did not even took to livestreams when he was there or defended it was a big misstep, i am happy it is again at a worthy champion.
With all the Kanes and Steven Flowe and such out there I absolutely believe someone would do The Cuddly Boyz gimmick lmao just gotta get the idea pushed out there.
I predict Chopper Pete will return to be a special guest referee in a tie breaker when Oli and Luke tie in the Monday Night War. He will be siding with Oli the entire match even wearing a Pipebomb better than Maths shirt. As Oli goes for the pin he counts 1…2..and then stops revealing a Maths better than Pipebomb shirt then fast counting a roll up declaring Luke the winner. Starting a feud between Pete and Oli but the Grivalry will not Row!
Reigns vs Punk is the Night One main event thanks to Heyman’s favour. Cena wins the Royal Rumble and challengers Gunther at WrestleMaina but loses. If Rock doesn’t face Rhodes then Cena will win the Chamber, Punk will win the Rumble and face Gunther in Night One’s main event and Reigns will face the undefeated Fatu. The Women’s Title matches at WrestleMaina will be Stratton vs Chamber Winner Charlotte Flair, Ripley vs Grace, US Champion Naomi vs Cargil, IC title, Lyra vs Lynch Cena vs Orton 1000 will be at Bad Blood for the WWE Championship which Orton will win. Cody’s run will end by the hands of Orton. If his contract is up then I predict the big move this year will be Aj Styles jumping ship to AEW where he’ll be feuding with Kenny Omega. The big build up will be a 2026 program against Osprey. Cena will win his 17th World Title in his last match against CM Punk on Saturday 20th December in Boston. The average AEW TV attendance will be 3000 but will include more sellouts due to smaller buildings and stronger crowds. Ratings will slowly rise but not be the peak of 2021. The next AEW Champions will be Darby Allin, Christian Cage and Adam Cole. Will Osprey will not be AEW Champion this year but will be bringing new life to the TNT Title making it what it once was. He will win the AEW Title at All In London in 2026 taking it from Aj Styles. The final four in the men’s Rumble will be Cena, Punk, Reigns and Rollins Jordan Grace will win the Women’s Royal Rumble and sign with WWE and face Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMaina 41. Charlotte Flair will return during the match and face new Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton after winning the Elimination Chamber Copeland and Cage will be AEW Tag Champions at Full Gear
1. Cena will win his 17th World Title at Survivor Series 2025, but will not retire as champion, instead setting up one final match at Wrestlemania. If he wins, he retires as champ, if he loses, he can go out on his shield. 2. Britt Baker leaves AEW. 3. Malakai Black leaves AEW. 4. The Elite reunite to defeat The Deathriders in a wet fart ending to this feud. 5. Sami Zayn wins a World Title. 6. TNA/WWE partnership ends. 7. ROH is dissolved and restarted as a new AEW Branded show that effectively acts as an NXT Brand for AEW. 8. WWE announces fewer PLEs but more 2 night PLEs, meaning less events in 2026, but PLEs become more like weekend extravaganzas.
With RAW going to Netflix, there will be crossover content, and there will be an episode of "Is It Cake?" based around WWE and have wrestlers as the judges for it.
Don't get it right with that Becky vs Ronda match last year. But this is my prediction for next year anyway : 1. Everything will switch back again like the 2019 to mid 2022 with WWE & AEW. AEW back to being hot and on top, while WWE start to getting cold and bored. 2.Jericho trying pull the same stun like Punk did in AEW, cause he's want to get out from there and join WWE. But WWE not interested in him, and he ends up in TNA. 3.And finally we've got CM Punk backstage drama in WWE. My safety bet is it's him had a beef with the young bucks buddy, so it's either Kevin Owens or AJ Styles. Or just like Luke said it's him beefing with The Rock, because once again the big boss baldy Dwayne, coming in and make sure Mr. Brooks doesn't get the main spotlight at WrestleMania.
My prediction: Kenny Omega makes a deal with both AEW and WWE for short-term contracts and jumps back and forth between the promotions and their other properties. (ie. a 1 year+few months contract with WWE, one with AEW after, etc.)
I can't imagine Kevin leaving without wrestling Sami again (specially when he mentions Sami in his promos) and I don't think we have time for that until his contract expires.
I predict that Netflix will gut WWE's roster to frontload Raw with all of their main event guys. Learning from the past, when Smackdown was devoid of top talent, Trips will start pushing key figures from the Smackdown midcard and turn them into proper stars.
Prediction: Jacob Fatu turns on literally everyone in the Bloodline storyline, snapping the Ula Fala in half and declaring that there won't be a chief, because he's here to end the tribe.
I feel compelled to make a bold prediction that will hurt me personally. So - In 2025 The Beast Mortos will attempt an unmasking gimmick in a attempt to revitalise his position in the company. He'll suddenly gain the ability to speak and cut promos and have a "handsome" gimmick. While initially well received a lack of followthrough will ultimately ruin him and he'll return to being masked again by the end of the year though it'll never quite regain the same magic it currently has now.
"She goes back to TNA" Bad news, guys Some random predictions throwing in for the hell of it - Gunther stays world champion the whole year, including a Brock Lesmar win, and finally drops it at survivor series... against Ilja - chad gable turns back face and instantly wins the us title - Oba femi beats gunther in a non title bout - the night 1 main event of summerslam will be roman versus jacob fatu for the ula fala - La Knight signs with TNA - Tyrus wrestles one last match in NWA - Ricochet wins the world title from Copeland - Rey announces his retirement tour, in AEW - Samoa Joe becomes a commentator in NXT
There will be a feud between A.J. Styles and John Cena ending in a "loser must retire" match in Saudi, with Styles losing and ending his in ring career.
1. Owens wraps up his tenure with wwe, but before going to AEW, he pulls out a Moxley 2019 move and first goes to New Japan and starts a feud with Aaron Henare cause you know tough boys duking it out 2. Omega becomes AEW World Champion at Full Gear 4 years after loosing it in the same PPV by defeating Okada 3. Joe Hendry becomes NXT World Champion 4. Pentagon JR becomes a hot commodity in wwe’s catering division (no solid creative plans) 5. CM Punk once again injures himself
My prediction for 2025; Pentagon Jr makes his debut in the Royal Rumble to a decent pop and he’ll do nothing of note until Fenix is able to sign a WWE contract in the middle of the year, then the Lucha bro’s will be just another tag team on the roster
The AJ Lee/Becky Lynch prediction just got much more interesting after the promo war last night on the last RAW on USA network. I would be so into this...
My prediction is that Luke Owen will say something incredibly stupid yet again, get backlash for it and then call the fans "dumbfucks" when he backpedals.
My prediction is Cena will talk Stone Cold into doing something with him at Mania. Dunno if it will be a match, but they only have this year to have something between them.
Gunther is still champ at the last PLE of 2025. He comes out and issued an open challenge to anybody because nobody can beat the ring general. Out comes his old nemesis: PCO. They have a banger of a match, chopping the flesh off of each other's chest and PCO wins. After the match, PCO is on the top on the ramp celebrating, WWE logo comes up, screen is about to fade to black but out comes Bron Breakker with the money in the bank briefcase, he spears PCO and wins the belt.
Regarding the Raven thing: Wasn't Raven shown in the crowd at some point for something? Or was that also years ago and I'm totally forgetting how long it's been?
Not so much a prediction but something I just want to actually happen: Triple H on his burner account will notice the fan reaction to War Games being too overdone and stale. As a man who loves tournaments and never looks to take jabs or ideas from other promotions, he’ll create “The Survivor Series”. A 12 man round robin tournament with a RAW League and a SmackDown League, with the semi-finals and finals happening on the Survivor Series PLE
I predict in 2025 Adam is going to come back and reclaim that Jam That Jampionship! Also, I'll take one more Hulk match if it ends with him dead in the middle of the ring. That's the only way I want to see that geriatric nightmare in any capacity again.
Pentagon debut on Raw, teams with Rey Mysterio, wins together, Penta turns on Rey and goes Lucha Underground Pentagon in WWE. That's my bold take. Debut as a face, and immediately turn him heel
Hey Oli, hey Luke. Regarding a Cody heel turn... 1)Do we think the Cody-Owens feud ends at Royal Rumble? Looking down the calendar, I see Elimination Chamber is exactly four weeks later. 2)If Cody and Owens face off again at EC, in SkyDome, who do you suppose the Toronto crowd will be behind? Early prediction, but probably unlikely: Owens beats Cody at RR in the ladder match. They fight again at EC, this time the crowd heavily behind the champ Owens, Cody resorts to heel tactics to regain the title, then goes full heel on the following Raw, setting up heel-Cody vs babyface Roman//Punk/Owens/??? at WrestleMania.
Right, so here I go:- 1. Tony Khan vs Shane McMahon will main event All In 2025 in a Lights Out match for control of AEW, and TK will get a Monster pop during his entrance for the match 2. At some point in 2025, AEW Dynamite will air on Monday Night, and after the show TK will keep boasting about it being the most viewed wrestling show on Television on that day, it'll be funny at first but it'll get very old very quickly 3. The Rock will win the Royal Rumble and MITB, and will win the WWE title multiple times throughout 2025 4. The "favor" that Paul Heyman owes CM Punk will be largely pushed to the background, until around after Summerslam where it'll be an important plot point again 5. Due to him having "friends in high places", all charges against Vince McMahon are dropped Around September/October we get the launch of Titan Sports (I checked the US Patents and Trademarks database, WWE no longer owns the Titan Sports trademark) a new wrestling company ran by Vince, and bankrolled by Elon Musk and/or Saudi Arabia. This new company will employ unethical and downright predatory tactics such as hostile takeovers, screwing over existing partnerships (WWE's Saudi deal might be in jeapordy if the Saudis are involved in this, for example) blatant contract tampering espionage and sabotage against every other wrestling promotion (mainly WWE and AEW, but really everyone's a target) and might take some of them down (they might buy PWG as a warning shot, for instance). This will, in turn, create a level of inter promotion solidarity that had never been seen, as they'd all unite against the common enemy
5 predictions for WWE in 2025 1. Penta squashes Gunther at summerslam to win the WHC 2. The Rock enters the royal rumble at 31 but doesn’t win 3. Zilla Fatu debuts on the smackdown after wrestlemania 41 4. Cody Rhodes turns heel on the last smackdown of the year 5. Brock Lesnar returns in the men’s royal rumble match
There will be a big name of one company (wwe/aew) that will wrestle on the other company brand while still a member of the other roster as tko/kahn will realize the huge potential with steaming services and watch ability at other times and not just during demographic times. This can help catapult both companies back to the top of main stream media.
that money he owes luke is going into long term booking...it will end with oli and luke fighting over the belt and the money at the same time..winner takes all
My 2025 prediction is that by the end of the year Oli will STILL not have given Luke that 10 quid 😂
Seeing the thumbnail considering KO deal was up in December & he’s fighting Cody for the WWE title at the Royal Rumble in February & has feuds with Sami & Randy set up afterwards I don’t think he’s leaving
It's obviously clickbait. No way in hell KO will appear on the other company without Sami.
@ville4090 ya wrestletalk uses wwe pictures as click bait now but then mainly talk about aew
Feel bad for saying it, but I’m 25 mins in the episode and it feels genuinely like a waste of time. Especially Luke’s predictions are, as usual, negative towards WWE and very much delusional. The KO thing in particular.

@matthennessy146 nahh just wrestletalk
C'mon lads, a "10 pounds of gold" joke is RIGHT THERE!
Dammit, have a like
10 pounds of jam 🍓
Oli I challenge you to a Jam eating contest for the title.
Jam that jam brother
When you win I got next
@@SimeonBird-kq3gzif you win I challenge you to a contest of who can jam the most things inside of themselves
@@SimeonBird-kq3gzyou’re lucky RUclips isn’t letting me challenge you, you’re not man enough for THAT contest
I don't mind officiating that match.
KO would be insane to go to AEW when he's having the biggest push of his life in the main events of the #1 promotion rn
Didn't he also just sign a new contract?
people said the same thing about edge going to aew & he did so you can’t rule it out for ko going to aew
@@TheAmericanNightmareWitch I never saw anybody say Edge was having the run of his life, they were barely using him 😅
Bryan Danielson’s last match before jumping to AEW was a three-way challenge for the Universal Championship in the main event of Wrestlemania.
This is literally the whole Drew McIntyre contract all over again. KO isn't going anywhere. He main evented WM39 with his best friend (practically brother) and won the tag titles, the year before that he main evented WM38 by literally bringing Stone Cold Steve Austin out of retirement, fast forward to this year and he's arguably having the best run of his career in years!

He'd be dumb to leave imo especially with the state AEW is in rn
Josh Alexander goes to NXT and has a "Kurt Angle" first year run, winning every title available in the brand.
This is a good one. I have my own Josh Alexander one myself.
then gets called up for a chad gable run
Alexander take everyone to school in wwe main roster...
Man I do hope Josh heads there. Three of the biggest I love to see, which if he heads to NXT first then it would be after that, is him being in a feud with Gunther, Chad, and Ilja
As a face or a heel? If face, the one he should beat for the nxt title is Ethan Page.
Literally right on midnight in Australia this was posted. Happy new year everyone!

As someone who will make £1 bets with my brother over the most stupid stuff when we hang out, I hope the "Oli owes Luke a tenner" gag never dies because Oli always forgetting to have the money is so funny to me
Ricky Starks will be WWE US Champion in 2025.
Unlikely he’ll probably head to NXT first
nope. not a needle mover or game changer.
Here’s some of my predictions:
1. Rock AND Austin will wrestle at WM41
2. Cena and Tanahashi will interact at some point in 2025 (not saying they’ll wrestle, just they will be involved with each other in some way, which leads me to…)
3. WWE will work with more outside companies, including NJPW
4. Rey Mysterio will join the list of people retiring in 2025, having his last match against his son, possibly Mask vs Hair.
5. AEW will retire/unify one or more titles
6. Bron Breaker will have a main event match
7. CM Punk will win a world title, and get injured during his reign.
I can't wait to see the tantrum Tony throws if WWE starts working with NJPW 😂
I don't see Kevin Owens going anywhere personally.
It’s almost as if they were making wild predictions that they don’t think will happen
1:09 wait what?
Prediction: Tempest will drown in his own AEW glaze.
Here's my prediction. In 2025 we will see the first AEW mass release. The kind that will result in Wrestletalk doing a breaking news live stream. It will at least 8 people released over a 3-5 day period.
These two are the reason Wrestletalk is number 1!
Prediction: John Cena beats The Rock for the Undisputed WWE Championship at a Saudi PPV then loses it at Summerslam to Randy Orton.
Shouldn’t that thumbnail say “Steen” and not “Owens”?
I spat out my drink when I heard what oil said at 1:13
lol me too
me too 🤣
I'm disappointed that AEW never invested in a MJF vs Rickey Starks feud. That works on so many levels, especially now.
They had a feud homie
Gonna go out on a limb here: TNA and NXT jointly promote a PLE/PPV in 2025, possibly Bound for Glory
I think Dom will not only retire John Cena, but he will become the star of the Netflix era
Dom wins money in the bank, John wins his final match and break Ric Flair’s record, and Dom cashes in and ruins his moment and takes the belt.
11:47 Adding to Oli's prediction, the vacant title is on the line in the 2026 Royal Rumble.
That thumbnail had me laughing in tears.
Here's my prediction. Most of aew shows will not be able to pass 400k viewers
Here's mine: AEW will die and we will all laugh while Moxley has to come back to WWE and job to Rhea Ripley.
Here is mine you two are gonna keep live in your mothers basement!!!
Oli, a slight change to your first one… Cena wins a world title however does not vacate it and loses it via a money in the bank cash in.
My hope for this year is that AEW gets a proper booking team for, at least, one of their shows to boost the story quality.
And that WWE puts more focus on, at the very least, their women’s division
110% That is something I've been saying for at least a year!!
Booker (Not T 😄) for each division!
Have writers that have wrestling experience too would be very helpful.
TK could still be involved, he would still have final say.
The Soul of AEW is a Death Row Records chain but it has a big AEW logo on it and they treat it like the Bloodline Ulafala
Officer Tatum!!! Awesome 👌🏼 God Bless
My prediction. Jordynne Grace will leave for NXT but will still be forced to have a match against Tessa Blanchard, which will spark tension in TNA and WWE.
19:49 the Cudley Boyz could be B-Von and Hugga Ray
This was so cool hearing this! one prediction for 2025 that did happen was AEW’s Rampage was canceled permanently.
I know that the Jam that jampionship is just a fun story, but that Sat did not do anything with it and did not even took to livestreams when he was there or defended it was a big misstep, i am happy it is again at a worthy champion.
Im gonna predict R-Truth wins a singles title, not in a comedic way or a throwaway match but through an actual feud
prediction: brock lesnar vs logan paul
the paul brothers get rep for beating old guys
Jack Perry and Killswitch return to their old names as Jurassic Express, and feud with Adam Copeland and Christian. Jurassic Express are the heels.
Wade Barrett returns at the rumble or interferes to Drew’s expense leading to a wade vs drew match at mania
Jim Johnston goes to AEW
At some point in 2025, Kairi Sane will win the tag team titles, a mid card title, AND the Women’s title.
Simon Miller has a middle-of-the-Rumble debut in WWE (as the still reigning Progress Proteus Champion) and eliminates Joe Hendry within 30 seconds
With all the Kanes and Steven Flowe and such out there I absolutely believe someone would do The Cuddly Boyz gimmick lmao just gotta get the idea pushed out there.
I predict Chopper Pete will return to be a special guest referee in a tie breaker when Oli and Luke tie in the Monday Night War. He will be siding with Oli the entire match even wearing a Pipebomb better than Maths shirt. As Oli goes for the pin he counts 1…2..and then stops revealing a Maths better than Pipebomb shirt then fast counting a roll up declaring Luke the winner. Starting a feud between Pete and Oli but the Grivalry will not Row!
I want this now 😆
My wild and wacky prediction: Moose debuts at the Royal Rumble 2025 and gets a hell of a good showing at the event.
Reigns vs Punk is the Night One main event thanks to Heyman’s favour.
Cena wins the Royal Rumble and challengers Gunther at WrestleMaina but loses. If Rock doesn’t face Rhodes then Cena will win the Chamber, Punk will win the Rumble and face Gunther in Night One’s main event and Reigns will face the undefeated Fatu.
The Women’s Title matches at WrestleMaina will be Stratton vs Chamber Winner Charlotte Flair, Ripley vs Grace, US Champion Naomi vs Cargil, IC title, Lyra vs Lynch
Cena vs Orton 1000 will be at Bad Blood for the WWE Championship which Orton will win.
Cody’s run will end by the hands of Orton.
If his contract is up then I predict the big move this year will be Aj Styles jumping ship to AEW where he’ll be feuding with Kenny Omega. The big build up will be a 2026 program against Osprey.
Cena will win his 17th World Title in his last match against CM Punk on Saturday 20th December in Boston.
The average AEW TV attendance will be 3000 but will include more sellouts due to smaller buildings and stronger crowds. Ratings will slowly rise but not be the peak of 2021.
The next AEW Champions will be Darby Allin, Christian Cage and Adam Cole.
Will Osprey will not be AEW Champion this year but will be bringing new life to the TNT Title making it what it once was. He will win the AEW Title at All In London in 2026 taking it from Aj Styles.
The final four in the men’s Rumble will be Cena, Punk, Reigns and Rollins
Jordan Grace will win the Women’s Royal Rumble and sign with WWE and face Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMaina 41.
Charlotte Flair will return during the match and face new Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton after winning the Elimination Chamber
Copeland and Cage will be AEW Tag Champions at Full Gear
Can we please get Adam back to do a proper fantasy booking of John Cena's farewell year.
1. Cena will win his 17th World Title at Survivor Series 2025, but will not retire as champion, instead setting up one final match at Wrestlemania. If he wins, he retires as champ, if he loses, he can go out on his shield.
2. Britt Baker leaves AEW.
3. Malakai Black leaves AEW.
4. The Elite reunite to defeat The Deathriders in a wet fart ending to this feud.
5. Sami Zayn wins a World Title.
6. TNA/WWE partnership ends.
7. ROH is dissolved and restarted as a new AEW Branded show that effectively acts as an NXT Brand for AEW.
8. WWE announces fewer PLEs but more 2 night PLEs, meaning less events in 2026, but PLEs become more like weekend extravaganzas.
Also OMOS getting that WWE star holding a NJPW title this early is wild. He's still contracted to WWE and holds the tag title....that one came true.
With RAW going to Netflix, there will be crossover content, and there will be an episode of "Is It Cake?" based around WWE and have wrestlers as the judges for it.
Bold prediction in 2025 Tiffany will have a cash in attempt on tna woman’s champion or the new mitb winner
If Olly loses the title before the end of the year he should vacate it at the end of the year
Tbf Red One really wasn't THAT bad
Thank you for the video and keep bringing then content. Love your guys sarcasm and positive energy.
Wish you both a happy 2025
Don't get it right with that Becky vs Ronda match last year.
But this is my prediction for next year anyway :
1. Everything will switch back again like the 2019 to mid 2022 with WWE & AEW. AEW back to being hot and on top, while WWE
start to getting cold and bored.
2.Jericho trying pull the same stun like Punk did in AEW, cause he's want to get out from there and join WWE. But WWE not interested in him, and he ends up in TNA.
3.And finally we've got CM Punk backstage drama in WWE. My safety bet is it's him had a beef with the young bucks buddy, so it's either Kevin Owens or AJ Styles. Or just like Luke said it's him beefing with The Rock, because once again the big boss baldy Dwayne, coming in and make sure Mr. Brooks doesn't get the main spotlight at WrestleMania.
Wild prediction here for 2025:
Chris Jericho finally snaps and proceeds to walk out with his "new" Cult of Personality theme as AEW champion.
The "Cuddly Boys" bit absolutely got me.
In 2025, I predict that I will stop watching wrestling because I don't want to pay for netflix. But I will always, SUPPORT WRESTLE TALK!
I could see John Cena vs CM Punk at WrestleMania. Considering the whole pipe bomb/Nexus issues from 10 years ago.
My prediction: Kenny Omega makes a deal with both AEW and WWE for short-term contracts and jumps back and forth between the promotions and their other properties. (ie. a 1 year+few months contract with WWE, one with AEW after, etc.)
Get the graphic right, at would be "Kevin Steen is All Elite"!
Edit: at least Luke said it right.
Either John Cena or CM Punk represents WWE Vs Kenny Omega at AEW Forbidden Door 😂
The main event of Summerslam is Rollins vs Reigns and ends in a no contest when Mox and the Death Riders jump them beginning a WWE vs AEW story.
In regards to Red One, I’m willing to bet that 80% of views were people like me saying "how bad is this film if it’s already free on Prime?"
Wild not to have a news episode covering a fire Punk promo, thought that was Oli's jam so to speak
I can't imagine Kevin leaving without wrestling Sami again (specially when he mentions Sami in his promos) and I don't think we have time for that until his contract expires.
Cara Noir needs to be in either AEW or ROH but I think he personally doesn't want to sign a major deal as he likes control over his schedule.
I predict that Netflix will gut WWE's roster to frontload Raw with all of their main event guys. Learning from the past, when Smackdown was devoid of top talent, Trips will start pushing key figures from the Smackdown midcard and turn them into proper stars.
I really want the Cuddley Boyz to become a thing so bad.
Prediction: Jacob Fatu turns on literally everyone in the Bloodline storyline, snapping the Ula Fala in half and declaring that there won't be a chief, because he's here to end the tribe.
I feel compelled to make a bold prediction that will hurt me personally. So - In 2025 The Beast Mortos will attempt an unmasking gimmick in a attempt to revitalise his position in the company. He'll suddenly gain the ability to speak and cut promos and have a "handsome" gimmick. While initially well received a lack of followthrough will ultimately ruin him and he'll return to being masked again by the end of the year though it'll never quite regain the same magic it currently has now.
"She goes back to TNA"
Bad news, guys
Some random predictions throwing in for the hell of it
- Gunther stays world champion the whole year, including a Brock Lesmar win, and finally drops it at survivor series... against Ilja
- chad gable turns back face and instantly wins the us title
- Oba femi beats gunther in a non title bout

- Rey announces his retirement tour, in AEW
- Samoa Joe becomes a commentator in NXT
There will be a feud between A.J. Styles and John Cena ending in a "loser must retire" match in Saudi, with Styles losing and ending his in ring career.
1. Owens wraps up his tenure with wwe, but before going to AEW, he pulls out a Moxley 2019 move and first goes to New Japan and starts a feud with Aaron Henare cause you know tough boys duking it out
2. Omega becomes AEW World Champion at Full Gear 4 years after loosing it in the same PPV by defeating Okada
3. Joe Hendry becomes NXT World Champion
4. Pentagon JR becomes a hot commodity in wwe’s catering division (no solid creative plans)
5. CM Punk once again injures himself
My prediction for 2025;
Pentagon Jr makes his debut in the Royal Rumble to a decent pop and he’ll do nothing of note until Fenix is able to sign a WWE contract in the middle of the year, then the Lucha bro’s will be just another tag team on the roster
He'll beat off those comings? Giggidy? I challenge you for the belt, Oli!
Kevin Steene signs with AEW was a entrant in the Owen Heart Memorial Tournament
The AJ Lee/Becky Lynch prediction just got much more interesting after the promo war last night on the last RAW on USA network. I would be so into this...
The reason that Oli hasn’t given Luke the £10 is really because he’s forgotten his pin.
My prediction is that Luke Owen will say something incredibly stupid yet again, get backlash for it and then call the fans "dumbfucks" when he backpedals.
My prediction is Cena will talk Stone Cold into doing something with him at Mania. Dunno if it will be a match, but they only have this year to have something between them.
With the New Day being shunned and rejected by the locker room they get recruited by Drew Mcintyre to fight the Bloodline
So they'll form.... The Drew Day?
Gunther is still champ at the last PLE of 2025. He comes out and issued an open challenge to anybody because nobody can beat the ring general. Out comes his old nemesis: PCO. They have a banger of a match, chopping the flesh off of each other's chest and PCO wins. After the match, PCO is on the top on the ramp celebrating, WWE logo comes up, screen is about to fade to black but out comes Bron Breakker with the money in the bank briefcase, he spears PCO and wins the belt.
Here’s one from me…John Cena’s retirement tour is mostly in NXT and he wins the NXT title…retiring when he loses the title
Regarding the Raven thing: Wasn't Raven shown in the crowd at some point for something? Or was that also years ago and I'm totally forgetting how long it's been?
Not so much a prediction but something I just want to actually happen: Triple H on his burner account will notice the fan reaction to War Games being too overdone and stale. As a man who loves tournaments and never looks to take jabs or ideas from other promotions, he’ll create “The Survivor Series”. A 12 man round robin tournament with a RAW League and a SmackDown League, with the semi-finals and finals happening on the Survivor Series PLE
I feel like KO going to AEW is a fairly tepid guess for something thats suppose to be wild and out there.
Would 100% spend money to go to an Indie show featuring the Cuddly Boys.
I got a prediction for 2025. NXTNA PPV
I predict in 2025 Adam is going to come back and reclaim that Jam That Jampionship!
Also, I'll take one more Hulk match if it ends with him dead in the middle of the ring. That's the only way I want to see that geriatric nightmare in any capacity again.
When is the news coming back??
Any one else snicker like a 7 year old when he said "I'll beat off those comers? Lol
Pentagon debut on Raw, teams with Rey Mysterio, wins together, Penta turns on Rey and goes Lucha Underground Pentagon in WWE. That's my bold take. Debut as a face, and immediately turn him heel
Hey Oli, hey Luke. Regarding a Cody heel turn...
1)Do we think the Cody-Owens feud ends at Royal Rumble? Looking down the calendar, I see Elimination Chamber is exactly four weeks later. 2)If Cody and Owens face off again at EC, in SkyDome, who do you suppose the Toronto crowd will be behind?
Early prediction, but probably unlikely: Owens beats Cody at RR in the ladder match. They fight again at EC, this time the crowd heavily behind the champ Owens, Cody resorts to heel tactics to regain the title, then goes full heel on the following Raw, setting up heel-Cody vs babyface Roman//Punk/Owens/??? at WrestleMania.
Right, so here I go:-
1. Tony Khan vs Shane McMahon will main event All In 2025 in a Lights Out match for control of AEW, and TK will get a Monster pop during his entrance for the match
2. At some point in 2025, AEW Dynamite will air on Monday Night, and after the show TK will keep boasting about it being the most viewed wrestling show on Television on that day, it'll be funny at first but it'll get very old very quickly
3. The Rock will win the Royal Rumble and MITB, and will win the WWE title multiple times throughout 2025
4. The "favor" that Paul Heyman owes CM Punk will be largely pushed to the background, until around after Summerslam where it'll be an important plot point again
5. Due to him having "friends in high places", all charges against Vince McMahon are dropped
Around September/October we get the launch of Titan Sports (I checked the US Patents and Trademarks database, WWE no longer owns the Titan Sports trademark) a new wrestling company ran by Vince, and bankrolled by Elon Musk and/or Saudi Arabia.
This new company will employ unethical and downright predatory tactics such as hostile takeovers, screwing over existing partnerships (WWE's Saudi deal might be in jeapordy if the Saudis are involved in this, for example) blatant contract tampering espionage and sabotage against every other wrestling promotion (mainly WWE and AEW, but really everyone's a target) and might take some of them down (they might buy PWG as a warning shot, for instance).
This will, in turn, create a level of inter promotion solidarity that had never been seen, as they'd all unite against the common enemy
5 predictions for WWE in 2025
1. Penta squashes Gunther at summerslam to win the WHC
2. The Rock enters the royal rumble at 31 but doesn’t win
3. Zilla Fatu debuts on the smackdown after wrestlemania 41
4. Cody Rhodes turns heel on the last smackdown of the year
5. Brock Lesnar returns in the men’s royal rumble match
Prediction:
At least 2/3 of the horsewomen will hold a secondary women’s title (IC/US) and will face each other for that belt at least once
There will be a big name of one company (wwe/aew) that will wrestle on the other company brand while still a member of the other roster as tko/kahn will realize the huge potential with steaming services and watch ability at other times and not just during demographic times. This can help catapult both companies back to the top of main stream media.
Nobody predicted that KO would go through 2024 without a single PLE/PPV victory and be holding the winged eagle world championship at the end
The austin theory will happen once the company’s deal with def rebel finishes so he can use the sparkles and champagne song
Hot take prediction Wwe buys aew
You guys really do need to bring back CGW, I have this amazing Joker Bayley Sting gimmick now that she’s been a heel.
that money he owes luke is going into long term booking...it will end with oli and luke fighting over the belt and the money at the same time..winner takes all
The Cuddly Boys. "Get the blankies!"
