Sorry to say this, fans of The Walking Dead , but we called this one. Negan is visiting Alexandria and he’s bringing someone important with him.
[WARNING: The Walking Dead Season 7 spoilers ahead]
Negan will make his presence known in Alexandria in The Walking Dead Season 7 episode 4. The leader of the Saviors will visit the community earlier than he said he would and bring Daryl along with him. Check out the video below to see it for yourself.
Rick will be forced to see what he’s done to his righthand man. Daryl might be the reason Glenn is dead, but Rick underestimating Negan is the reason why they’re in their current predicament. Rick is directly responsible for Abraham’s death and Daryl’s torture. Seeing Daryl looking horrible will be enough to make Rick obey Negan’s rules.
However, Daryl won’t bend to Negan’s will so easily. Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl, recently explained to Entertainment Weekly why his character continues to rebel against Negan. Daryl refuses to let go of what little control he has by calling himself Negan. Daryl would rather take all the abuse in the world than to work for the man who killed two of his friends.
“Daryl’s a fighter,” Reedus told EW . “He fights to the end, but in saying out loud his name instead of Negan’s name — it’s the last shred of himself that he has and for his friends. I assume he thinks he’s going to get killed right there when he says he’s not Negan. He’s signing up for more torture, but he’s doing it for the love of his friend.”
Unfortunately, Rick doesn’t have the option to rebel. Negan has more people and Rick has an entire community to protect. He also has to think about a pregnant Maggie who is ready to fight Negan and could potentially start a war. Rick is screwed and has a lot of overcome before he rise up.
What do you think Negan will do during his first visit to Alexandria? Share your theories in the comments below. The Walking Dead Season 7 airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on AMC.
