Have you gone?
Good! Let’s begin…
…no really! Piss off otherwise you’ll learn shit you really don’t want to see.
That’s right, go watch the entire season somewhere and come back after.
Right then now they’re gone, I have been doing a lot of thinking about whom Negan killed in last night’s season 6 finale of The Walking Dead. Rather than whinge about how I believe it would’ve been much more effective to have shown the the victim and have the world in post traumatic shock and baying for blood in season 7’s anticipation rather than the cheap tacky “who got killed” cliffhanger (we deserve better than that), I am going to list all of the captives at Negans feet and give a description as to why I think they either did or didn’t get killed by him.
Glenn – I strongly believe Glenn is the most likely character to have died by Negan. Reason being, its how he dies in the comics. If it was any of the others, that bus thing would’ve been in shot behind him I reckon. Glenn was going the be the Terminus Slaughterer’s next victim if Carol hadn’t saved the day. That would’ve been by baseball bat too! He winced when he saw a few photos of Negans previous victims the other week, like somebody had walked over his grave.
Daryl – the fans fave character may have had breathed his last. The TV version of the show sometimes differs from the comics, and Daryl Dixon was never in the comics anyway so would be expendable… but then again maybe his popularity and own love of the show keep the writers at bay? My 2nd guess, as he has killed loads of Negans men so therein is a grudge. He was also on The Talking Dead right after the shows airing.
Michonne – now this would break our hearts but not as bad as Ricks, who has recently found love in his right hand woman. Michonne a tough cookie, but unarmed at the feet of a nutter she’s as vulnerable as anybody else. Personally I think she is quite safe though!
Abraham – this dude should’ve died a couple of episodes back if true to the comic. But the doc took the bolt thru the head instead. (See how they sometimes differ from the comic?) Abe is my third personal choice for a kill, as the aforementioned reason has left him rather expendable.
Maggie – this is catch 22. Lauren Cohen has recently made a film. Has she left the show? After all, Negan did offer to put her out of her misery. I think it’s unlikely but wouldn’t rule it out.
Rick – don’t be stupid! The entire show is based around him and has been since it began.
Sasha – this would create a bit of storyline between Abe and Rosita after the former ditching the latter for Sasha. Not much of one though.
Aaron – I doubt it, this guys character hasn’t really gone anywhere so where’s the shock in seeing him bite the dust?
Carl – Carl is safe. Negan said if anyone moves cut the boys other eye out and feed it to his dad. It isn’t him. Chandler Riggs who plays him tweeted the other day that none of the cast except the one who dies knows who it is. He doesn’t know…thus it cannot be him.
Eugene – everyone’s favourite nerd. Despite biting on Dwight’s winkie to escape the other week I doubt it’s Eugene. It might be but I strongly doubt it.
Tara – this character is seems to be loitering. Maybe…but is she a major character? Nah! Itd be brutal to see but not much of a shock.
According to Chandler Riggs’ Tweet the death hasn’t actually been filmed. JD Morgan (Negan) was hitting padding during the take so the scriptwiters can change their minds if they wish!! Well there we are folks.
Just my humble opinion on the matter. Maybe the question should be “who gets to kill Negan?” I hope you’ll like and share this post lots ID greatly appreciate it. It’s taken me an hour to type up lol. Roll on season 7, and happy browsing! Jam out!
