I’m a big predictions guy. I’ve guessed the winners ahead of every single WWE premium live event for more than three years. Given my other passion is Survivor, I started planning to write this article as soon as the cast of returning legends was officially announced. Unfortunately, it has proven a lot harder than expected. It’s easy to eliminate a half dozen or so castaways that almost certainly aren’t going to win (you’re the best, Q!), but most of the people going to Fiji have either won or made extremely deep runs before. We’re not dealing with much first boot energy.
We’re also dealing with a lot of lofty reputations. If every cast member was unknown to the other players, I’d bet big on standouts like Cirie, Dee and Christian, but they’re entering the game with huge targets on their back because other castaways know how strategic and capable they are. They’ll probably win if they make it to the end, but what are the chances the other players don’t conspire against them?
