The Walking Dead Season 7: Ranking The Probability Of 17 Major Character Deaths

5. Carol

TWD Season 7 Deaths

Over the past few years, Carol - thanks in no small part to Melissa McBride's phenomenal work - has grown into arguably the best (or at least most developed) character on the series.

However, she's been under-used in Season 7, and the writers need to show that they can do something with her other than pretending she cannot fight/her refusal to do so.

That's likely to come in Season 7 when, along with Morgan (I think we'll see a few similarities between their characters), she'll be forced back into the fight. And, again as with Morgan, I could see her having a scenario that sees her fight, be a hero, and then die a tragic death in the finale (not that I think both of them will die, but it'd be one or the other with a similar plot). This would be huge, and really establish the stakes of the war and difficulty of defeating Negan.

Chance Of Dying: 7/10
