The following are some highlights of predictions the recent WWF magazine made for some superstars. Please take them only as rumors because the WWF magazine is notorious for simply stirring the pot and much of what they predict is intended only as "entertainment"...

- The Rock: It will be a landmark year for the Rock but he will experience a setback around Wrestlemania X-8. A former WWF main eventer will challenge the Rock, but he will come out of the battle stronger than before.

- Steve Austin: Around the beginning of summer, someone from Steve Austin's past will show up to steer him in the right direction.

- Triple H: If "The Game" attempts to stand alone as a loner, he will fail but if he teams up with a "figure from his past" and leads a faction, nothing will stop him from reaching the top of the mountain.

- Kurt Angle: He will go on an ankle-breaking spree until summertime, when a most "dangerous man" with a lengthy submission background will enter the WWF with his sights set on breaking Angle's ankle.

- Undertaker: Personal trauma will lead the Undertaker back to the darkside. His actions wil make every fan regret ever wanting to see the return of the "Man from the Darkside".

- Chris Jericho: Y2J will team up with a trusted companion who will help him complete his "meteoric rise" to the top of the WWF. All this happens after he loses a major title to a very much hated foe.

- Booker T: Will get tired of getting disrepected in the WWF and will look towards a family member in his quest for respect. However, this family member will turn on him and Booker will have to make a decision - whether to continue his battle in the WWF or to take a leave of absence.

- Hardy Boyz & Lita: A "lover's scorn" will rip the brothers apart. One Hardy will emerge victorious but the other will be "banished from the public eye", but just on a temporary basis.

- Perry Saturn: Will finally get over the loss of Moppy by meeting and falling in love with a broom.

- XPac: By February 2, fans will stop chanting "X-Pac Sucks" and instead will be saying three magical letters when they see X-Pac and his friends. This reformation will thrust X-Pac back into the spotlight and lead him and his friends to sell tons of merchandise.

- Kane: Will score a major victory early in the year before feuding with another big man. However, a weakness will be revealed at that time, causing Kane to go into hiding until the dust clears.

- Tajiri: As May Day approaches, an old foe from Japan along with his "sensei" will attempt to buy Tajiri's services or end his career if he chooses not to cooperate. Tajiri will realize that he cannot conquer this opponent and will leave his fans "misty eyed".

- Edge: Will come close to winning the WWF championship but each time he does, Christian will come in the way. Only when he removes Christian from the picture will Edge accomplish his goal.

- Christian: He will recruit followers from a group of angry, disgruntled siblings.

- APA: Will rename themselves as the APAA (Acolytes Protesting Against Alcohol) and will become spokesmen for herbal tea.

- Rob Van Dam: RVD will walk out of Canada as a champion and thus begin an impressive 23-month reign as titlist. He will dispose of all challengers, however, a man with the initials "JL" will prove to be the only viable contender RVD has.

-Shane McMahon: He will become obsessed with becoming a wrestler and will undergo martial arts submission wrestling training before returning to the WWF full-time. After experiencing a lot of success early on, he will meet his match in RVD, a match that will be dubbed "battle of the Van Terminators".

- Rhyno: The Man-Beast will introduce an "extreme" and familiar title to the WWF which the federation will not recognize. However, an old hardcore foe will steal his coveted title away from him, which will in turn make Rhyno focus his attentions on other titles.

- Raven: Will team up with a returning superstar to form the "Rabid Flock". The duo will win many tag team championships together.

- Chris Benoit: See Raven.

- Mike Awesome: Awesome will finally get the recognition he deserves by chasing away one of the WWF's top superstars out of the federation.

- Kanyon: Will earn the nickname "Wrestlemania MVP" and then focus his attention on being featured on the cover of WWF Magazine.
