Less than a week from Negan’s kill being revealed in The Walking Dead Season 7 premiere, everyone is tossing out their final theories and claims out about who the victim will be. From Aaron to Maggie to Negan’s own man, everyone swears to have the answer.

Many fans suspect this will create a scheduling conflict and was only greenlit because Reedus has plenty of free time following Daryl’s death in the season six finale.
