On this episode of Takedown, Paul Fontaine and Garrett Gonzales look into the crystal ball to deliver their WWE and AEW predictions for 2026. As the landscape of professional wrestling continues to shift, the guys break down everything from major championship changes to the future of international partnerships.
The Highlights of Today's Show:
Sami Zayn’s Rollercoaster Year: Paul predicts a massive emotional peak for Sami Zayn as he finally captures a WWE main title in 2026. However, the celebration might be short-lived, as Paul forecasts the unstoppable Oba Femi as the man to end Sami’s reign in dominant fashion.
MJF and the AEW Locker Room: Garrett takes a closer look at the "kumbaya" atmosphere of 2025. With MJF sitting at the top of the mountain, will the cohesion of the AEW locker room fracture under the pressure of his leadership in 2026?
The End of the Forbidden Door?: In a shocking take, Paul discusses why he believes the historic partnership between NJPW and AEW may be nearing its expiration date. What does this mean for future crossover events?
WWE SmackDown Business Trends: Garrett weighs in on the blue brand’s future, predicting that SmackDown ratings and business could see a downward trend as we move through 2026.
