NOPE.

My dislike of Sonic isn't tied to his entertaining-ness. I just flat out don't like him. So that Batista thing is more of a personal feeling. |

Predix: Triple Threat randomness eliminates Scorpion first. Snake then hit his comeback sequence on Phoenix and wins. At End Game, Protoman retains and Sonic cashes-in and wins the title. |

Might not be related, but I think since Phoenix lost the Triple Threat he's gonna be Illidan's opponent, as a strong competitor and to actually allow MY CLIENT, ILLIDAN STORMRAGE, CONQUERED THE STREAK |

As much as I would want that to happen, I'd much rather have something else. The person that I think is going to challenge Illidan at End Game 7. Spoiler: click to toggle

Well, all the contenders are known now except for Illidan's opponent. I think that one of the losers of the Triple Threat is a likely foe, as they'll be a big name who now isn't busy with anything that night. However, the challenger could also be one of the two still-unrevealed call-ups. |

Now that Endgame's on the horizon, here's some very preliminary guesses for the next batch of contenders. Little Mac vs. Donkey Kong vs. Dracula vs. whoever wins the Duke/Ganon/Guile match Mac's been beating all his opponents so far, and after Season 7's done, he might be ready for another shot. Donkey Kong's also been making a comeback recently, and Dracula's had quite a few wins since dropping the Casual belt. The big game-changer will be who wins the dust-off between Duke Nukem, Ganondorf, and Guile. Duke and Ganon are top ten competitors, and Guile has beaten a current champ and is currently hovering in the upper midcard. If Duke or Ganon win, then their feud is unlikely to continue, and the winner will be primed to take a shot at Protoman, Scorpion, or Sonic. It's harder to say whether beating Duke and Ganon will be enough to boost Guile to the top of the card, though. An alternate pick could be Gabe Newell or Phoenix Wright. Phoenix's singles streak is still unbroken, and this could be enough to give him one more shot at the belt. Gabe is still higher ranked than the current champion, and could leverage this into a contender's match, but is it still too soon since his last title reign? And, of course, we can't forget Illidan. However, even if he beats Kefka at Endgame, I doubt that will be enough to earn him a title shot just yet. He may need at least one more powerful foe to overcome first. |

Maybe making contender picks before Endgame was a bit premature. So now that we've finished Season 7, here's my picks for who ends up facing Scorpion and Gray Fox at the start of Season 8. VGCW Title: Little Mac vs. Phoenix Wright vs. Donkey Kong vs. Dracula Mac has bounced back quite well from his embarrassing loss to Illidan, and has kept up a winning streak. It may be time for Youngblood to return to the title scene. Phoenix Wright's singles streak remains unbroken, so he may be deserving of one more shot at the title. Donkey Kong and Dracula have had solid records and would both make good picks for a title shot. Guile is an honorable mention for beating Duke and Ganon in the triple threat. However, even after winning, he may still be a bit underranked at the moment. Besides, the plot may still have future plans for him. AVGN is another honorable mention, since he hasn't yet won the belt despite being in contention for a while. Maybe he's had enough of a break to go for one more shot. Casual Title: Tingle vs. Captain Falcon vs. Arino vs. Zangief Tingle seems like an obvious pick for the Casual contender's scene, since the feud with Haggar saved his career. Likewise, after beating Ezio at Endgame, Falcon may be ready for another shot at the title. Now that he and the Nerd have dropped the Co-Op belts, Arino needs something to do, and he's got the record for a run at the Casual belt. Finally, Gief has a solid record and might be a good pick for casuals. Ness is an honorable mention for beating Red at Endgame. However, we don't have a good grasp on his true potential yet, so it might be prudent to wait a bit to see if he's top-tier before dumping him in casuals. Same thing with Heavy. Other honorable mentions for casual competition are Barret, Air Man, or Sagat. However, the latter two may need a couple more matches to see if they can climb out of the midcard. |

NOPE.

What about Illidan himself for the main title? His only loss is to the current champ, and he looked incredible tonight. |

Hmmm. Guile vs. Dracula vs. Bowser vs. Mac for the title. Ness vs. Tingle vs. Falcon vs. Donkey Kong for casual title. |

Guile did nothing wrong
|
While Guile should definitely be first in line, he seems to potentially be the figurehead for plot next season. Other than him, Illidan and Phoenix would both be extremely interesting choices. |

I would assume Phoenix is at the top of the list for entries into a main belt contenders' match. I mean, fuck, Title vs Streak is like every promoter's wet dream. |

There shouldn't be another contender for the Main Belt who isn't Phoenix Wright. Sure it's impressive that Guile beat both Ganondorf and Duke Nukem in the same night, but that doesn't compare to the greatness that is 9-0. Illidan could be next in line as well, but I feel like he needs to win another match to do so against someone who's in some range of Main Event status. Maybe Dracula? |
