So of course we have to caveat this video with contract dependent. Nobody actually knows what's in any

wrestler's deal unless you're either the promoter or you're the wrestler themselves. I had a look

in the mirror this morning. I am neither. However, after the 180 that Sanos Escobar did back in

October 2025, you're going to have to imagine that a bunch of other people will probably

sign for WWE in the new year of 2006, because maybe they're on a little bit of recruitment drive because wrestling wars are back. This is both good and bad for many, many reasons. Hello, my friends, I am Simon at the board A-Hole, and we are going to put on our prediction nerd hats and try and figure out who will join WWE in 2026. Number eight, Chris Jericho.

So this absolutely could be one of the biggest stories of the year and the rumors at the moment

is that Chris Jericho is going to be out of contracted end of 2025 and maybe he goes back to

AEW or maybe he does the thing. Some people have wanted him to do for ages, which just do one last

run with world wrestling entertainment. Still annoys me, we change that name. It never works in a Senate. Now really just feel like it's a win-win for Jericho because whichever path he does choose is going to be a big deal. But looking at this way, I'm sure that Christopher realizes the end of his career is far sooner than the start of his career. So if he does want to have one big

last hoo-hahir in WWE, well, it kind of just feel like now is the time. Jericho's also an absolute mega star. So if he is the big surprise in the Royal Rumble, it is going to blow the roof off the place. He'll probably also be able to be in a massive WrestleMania match, eventually get put in the Hall of Fame.

And again, it's Chris Jericho, the return of Y2J.

If he wants to make sure he's got all his programs booked, or at least knows where he's going to be on the card before he signs on the dotted line, well, he can probably do it. I mean, don't forget that he was a massive WW for around about 20 years. And even though there would be a sad part about him leaving AEW because he was so important for All-Leat wrestling in their first year, this is just how wrestling works and why it's awesome. We do have two big companies because some people can go right, some people can go left, but you know who always wins us the fans? One of the best things about pro wrestling is the big return or the big comeback, all the oh my gosh, I can't believe it, surprise. So mostly because we do live in a never say never world. I'd probably imagine this is going to happen. I mean, who gets when to change lanes more than Chris Jericho? There ain't that many. Don't forget either that as I've been talking to you, it's almost been a decade of Jericho having a proper time in WWE. It's terrifying.

Start the grade now. Number seven, Britt Baker. Now I have to address this one as transparent

as we possibly can, because once again, if you go on that there internet, which does like to make

things up from time to time, either Britt Baker's contract could go all the way to 2027

because of injury injury timer gets added

on.

Or maybe she is a free agent in 2026.

Don't get this wrong either.

Because every time you bring up Brits name and going to a new promotion, somebody in the

internet will always go, oh, she's got a terrible controversial reputation backstage.

Now once again, nobody apart from those involved know what was going on behind the scenes. But do you think WW cares about that? Of course they don't. One, they would probably address it head on when they were having chats if it is true, but also two, they are so desperate to go. Ha ha, ha, look at all the people coming over to WWE. And even though she hasn't been on 8W TV for ages, Britt Baker still feels
