Terrible wrestling predictions

**Joesgonnakillyou** · 01-30-2013, 06:09 PM

Hello All, I thought I'd post a thread to mark my 1000th post. After much careful deliberation and a focus group, I've settled on this topic:

What has been your worst wrestling prediction since you started watching? Everyone makes them, because everyone is certain they know the product so well, after all you've been watching for years! Who could know better than you?

Except sometimes you make a prediction and it's so spectacularly wrong it's absurd and of course I have a couple of examples.

The Prediction
In 1999 I confidently announce to my wrestling buddy that Test will be a world champion by 2005 (the distant future at the time) because he looked a bit like Nash

The Reality
After a fairly successful 2001 (decent mid card year) Test slowly becomes irrelevent and is released in 2004. He is eventually rehired in....

2006.

and still never became a World Champ.

The Prediction
Sheamus has just earnt his first WWE title shot against John Cena, I have such a hatred for the guy I say to my friend that he will end up as the comic relief in a stereotypical irish tag team with Finlay

The Reality
He's one of the top babyfaces of the company and shows no signs of slowing down...

Can anyone top my ineptitude?
