Top 5 Moments From The Walking Dead S8E15 "Worth"

Warning: this blog contains spoilers!

Negan is back - and he's cleaning house after being left behind.

S8E15 served to remind us of just how formidable the Saviors' leader can be both combatively and tactically. It also reinforced his opinion on traitors.

We saw how Rosita and Daryl viewed traitors, too. With the war set to end next episode, has Negan put things in place for a deadly final attack? Check out our picks for the top five moments in "Worth."

5. Rick and Negan Read Carl's Letters

Technically Negan had it read to him, but still. Carl asked Rick to make a safe world where people could enjoy normal lives. Carl asked Negan for peace and told him it wasn't too late. Unfortunately, he didn't seem to agree.

4. Dwight Betrays Simon

Negan's return shocked many at the Sanctuary, especially the new man-in-charge. Despite being forgiven by Negan for massacring the scavengers, Simon urged Dwight to join him in overthrowing the returning boss. Dwight told, and Simon's plan was over before it began.

3. Eugene Gets the Traitor's Treatment

After being kidnapped by Daryl and Rosita, Eugene attempted to explain his betrayal by saying he was only trying to keep himself safe. They didn't take too kindly to his explanation, and hinted he'd have a grim future. He managed to escape then seemed motivated by his encounter to complete a new batch of ammo for Negan - is Eugene finally fully on the dark side?

2. Dwight's Betrayal is Exposed

Dwight's relationship with Negan seemed like it had never been better - up until he revealed his surprise. Thanks to Laura, he discovered Dwight's betrayal and pieced together his entire history of double-crossing. He also planted fake intel so Dwight would deliberately put Rick and the others in harm's way. What will be his fate? We aren't sure, but we bet it will be brutal.

1. Negan Kills Simon

To Negan's credit, he gave Simon a chance to overthrow him. The two went one-on-one, no weapons and no tricks. After a bloody back-and-forth battle, Negan came out on top, crushing his former right-hand man's windpipe and then putting his reanimated corpse on the fence. He also revealed he'd be killing the rest of the people at Hilltop as well. Negan is as ruthless as we've ever seen him. If he can do that to a man who was his closest associate, what will he do to Rick and the crew next week?

10 Opponents Daniel Bryan Could Face in his WWE Return

HE'S BACK! After more than two years off the active roster, Daniel Bryan has been cleared for an in-ring return. No official date for a return match has been given and no opponent has been named, but that doesn't mean we can't speculate. We hope Bryan has plenty of matches coming up in his new run - ah, that feels good to say. Here are ten wrestlers we'd like to see him face! 10. Baron Corbin Bryan's time in a Smackdown managerial role saw him have words with Corbin on multiple occasions. It'd make for a good backstory if they fought, and it'd be a fresh matchup. 09. Kevin Owens and/or Sami Zayn We put these two together because they've been a collective thorn in Bryan's side for months. Maybe he and Shane could team together and take on the duo of "Kami" in a tag match? 08. Roman Reigns These two had a great match years ago on the road to WrestleMania, and it was Reigns who came out on top. We've got to think Brya...

Uber Self-Driving Car Kills Pedestrian

On the night of March 18, a self-driving vehicle struck a pedestrian in Tempe, Arizona. The woman was attempting to cross the street when the crash occurred, and passed away after being transported to a local medical facility. Though a driver using Tesla's advanced auto-pilot feature passed away in a 2016 crash , this marks the first known pedestrian fatality involving a self-driving vehicle. As a result, Arizona governor Doug Ducey has suspended tests of autonomous cars on the state's roads until further notice. Emails obtained after the incident suggest the governor was allowing Uber to test their vehicles in the state without informing the public. Uber executive Lior Ron has stepped down amid the controversy. Even business partners like Nvidia are distancing themselves from Uber because of the accident. The company is facing flack for reportedly removing several sensors from their self-driving vehicles prior to testing. Though Uber hasn't released an off...

5 Ways All Out War Could've Been Better

Warning - this blog contains spoilers! As part of our celebration of the end of the war arc, we decided to look back and discuss how things could've been improved. If you've followed our coverage of season 8, you know we loved it! But even so, it doesn't mean things couldn't have been done differently. Here are 5 ways we think All Out War could've been better. 5. The Pacing Could've Been Sped Up Significantly Going by Maggie's lack of a baby bump, we can conclude the war took place over a much shorter period than many fans thought. From the beginning of season 7 with Abraham and Glenn meeting Lucille to the finale of season 8 with Negan being imprisoned, only a month or two could've passed at most . That's a pretty radical pacing change for a show that used to move things along quickly. Squeezing 32 episodes into such a short span helped us meet a lot of new faces and explore the bigger world the show is trying to focus on, but it also...
