It’s that time of year again when we make our annual wishes and predictions for women’s wrestling in the year ahead.
Previous wishes/predictions posts here (2010), here (2011) and here (2012).
2013 Wishes
* Sara Del Rey to wrestle on WWE TV (even if it is just on NXT), and not just be stuck behind the scenes.
* Naomi to ditch the Funkasaurus and Cameron, and become a full-fledged wrestling Diva.
* Athena to become the next big independent headliner, possibly by winning the SHIMMER Championship.
* More storyline-driven feuds in WWE, TNA and promotions such as SHINE.
* A new Awesome Kong-like Knockout to help shake up the division. Alpha Female, perhaps?
* Kharma to return to WWE.
* A singles match for the Diva Championship at WrestleMania, perhaps involving AJ Lee?
* A big women’s wrestling dream card featuring talents from all the major independent promotions.
* After all her success in the Knockouts division, wouldn’t it be fun to see Gail Kim try to go after the X-Division Title?
* A long overdue title reign for Natalya.
2013 Predictions
* Sable will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
* The Blossom Twins will join TNA on the back of TNA British Boot Camp.
