It finally happened on The Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 16.
Following weeks and weeks of hype and anticipation, we finally met Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan.
We also met the villain’s trusty barbed wire-covered baseball bat, Lucille, and we watched as Negan delivered a menacing speech to Rick and his many other captured foes.
They had been ignoring the “new world order.”
They had killed Negan’s men.
And now someone had to pay.
But who?
For nearly the entirety of The Walking Dead Season 6, viewers had been anticipating a significant death on the finale.
Loyal comic book readers were aware that Negan murders Glenn in the graphic novel series on which The Walking Dead was based, so many assumed he would be the character to bite the dust.
And maybe he was.
When you watch The Waking Dead online or on television, all you see if Negan taking swing after swing with Lucille, telling his unnamed victim that he or she is initially taking the beating “like a champ.”
Creator Robert Kirkman, meanwhile, simply says that someone is, indeed, dead… and that this someone is a “beloved character.”
Does that narrow down the field for you?
Can you believe we need to wait until Season 7 to learn the victim’s identity?!?
Until then, all we can do is take our best guess. So go ahead and do so below:
WHO DO YOU THINK NEGAN KILLED ON THE WALKING DEAD FINALE?
