Arrow Season 7: 10 Major Predictions

10. Deathstroke Will Return

It's been quite a while since Slade Wilson graced our screens with his presence, and given that he's finally a part of Arrowverse TV again, he is bound to show up sometime during Season 7.

Slade appeared in three episodes last season, during which Oliver helped him track down his long-lost son Joe. However, he was in for a shock when he discovered that his son was the leader of criminal organisation, the Jackals. The shocks kept coming as Joe actually revealed that he had a brother, Grant, and went on to suggest that he killed him.

Slade didn't believe Joe's confession and decided to set out on his own to track down both of his sons. That was during the first half of Season 6 and, unfortunately, we haven't heard anything since.

The reveal that Grant Wilson exists in this timeline was a major moment for the Arrowverse as the character appeared as Deathstroke Jr. in the alternate 2046 timeline on DC's Legends Of Tomorrow. Whether or not anything similar will happen in the main timeline is anyone's guess, but his existence is incredibly important, especially to Slade.

Nobody likes unanswered questions and we have yet to find out what happened to Grant (and if Slade managed to locate Joe again). So it would make total sense for Deathstroke to pop up again sometime during this season to give us all an update on what's happening with his sons. It's time, kid.
