The midseason finale of "The Walking Dead" Season 7 finally set things right for the series, what with Daryl Dixon breaking out of Sanctuary and making his way back to Alexandria. But is it possible that Daryl's unexpected killing of Fat Joey will turn out to have a significant connection to Eugene being taken away by Negan in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 Episode 9?
Fans undoubtedly rejoiced when Daryl Dixon broke out of Sanctuary in "Hearts Still Beating" and finally reunited with Rick Grimes in the conclusion of the midseason finale. However, some also believe that Daryl's decision to kill Fat Joey could mean more deaths in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 Episode 9. Will Negan get back at Alexandria for Joey's murder when the show returns next year?
'The Walking Dead' Season 7 Episode 9 Predictions: Fat Joey's Murder Leads To More Deaths? Daryl Dixon Dooms Eugene In Negan's Company?
The brutal death of Fat Joey had mixed reactions from fans, who thought it was an awesome scene but also began to wonder about Daryl Dixon's sanity. There is little doubt that Negan will be displeased about losing Joey, because the guy might have a very important job in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 Episode 9.
Comicbook points out that Fat Joey was responsible for redirecting a massive walker herd from communities like Alexandria and Hilltop. With Joey gone, it could be more difficult to lead the zombies away in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 Episode 9. Daryl Dixon may have endangered more people and possibly gave Eugene a new job now that he has been taken by Negan.
Eugene Leads Walker Redirection After Daryl Dixon Murders Fat Joey In 'The Walking Dead' Season 7 Episode 9?
OK, so it was obvious that Negan decided to take Eugene so he could have his own bullet crafter, but will the survivor end up getting a new job in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 Episode 9? Some believe Eugene could be forced to take Fat Joey's job in masterminding the walker herd redirect. Hopefully, Daryl Dixon and the rest of the Alexandrians can save Eugene when the midseason premiere airs on AMC next year.
