How will Rosenberg end his Uncanny X-Men run?

[nightw1ng]

To say that the current Uncanny X-Men run by Matthew Rosenberg is controversial would be an understatement. With the massive amount of characters that have been killed/maimed/depowered, many are expecting Rosenberg to do some kind of reset to wave away all the changes. Now that there is only one issue left before Jonathan Hickman comes in and reboots the X-franchise, how do you think Rosenberg will end his run?

For reference, here's a list of whom Rosenberg has killed/maimed/depowered (I may have missed some):

Blindfold (dead)
Loa (dead)
Strong Guy (dead)
Cyclops (maimed)
Sunspot (dead)
Sabretooth (dead)
Joseph (dead)
Wolfsbane (dead)
Arclight (dead)
Malice (dead)
Scalphunter (dead)
Blockbuster (dead)
Vertigo (dead)
Harpoon (dead)
Chamber (dead)
Vanisher (dead)
Ruckus (dead)
Gorgeous George (dead)
Hairbag (dead)
Ramrod (dead)
Shinobi Shaw (dead)
Dark Beast (dead)
Triage (depowered/dead?)
Velocidad (dead)
Banshee (dead)
Magik (lost mutant powers)
Juggernaut (depowered)
Sienna Blaze (dead?)
Trevor Fitzroy (dead?)

I think my top three theories in no particular order:

• Nothing happens and Hickman’s run resets everything by the end of HOXPOX
• Elixir resurrects everyone and, in turn, wipes out Callahan and the O.N.E.
• X-Man reverses the damage done to the mutants before he dies

Continuing our streak of bad writing, X-Man and Hope confront each other with poorly written "deep" dialogue where Hope proceeds to copy his powers and fix everything. Either one or both of them dies because Rosenberg thinks he's being deep when in reality it's more childish than ever.

I... actually think that Hope fixing everything when X-Man comes back by copying his powers would be smart symbolism for what AoXM has shown us regarding her, but I'd hate it if she died to do so.

The esteemed followers of the One True God-Emperor of Mankind behold this heresy and have it purged from orbit from an Ion Cannon. Exterminatus is the only way to be truly sure it's dead and stays dead.

But in all seriousness, it would not surprise me to see more than half of this stuff stick around like the stink of cheese left out in a bathroom for a month.

Truth to tell...I don't know and don't care, and it's not worth my time or energy to even think about it...just that it's ending is good enough.

[Havok83]

I think things will be reset in AoX Omega

[nandes]

It will tragic if everything sticks since people have been consoling themselves saying this run will get retconned since like, issue 13, so I'm gonna be a pessimist and say "tHis iS FoReVAH"

this.

Or Rosenberg gonna write The End, run away and Hickman gonna ignore it

[Master of Sound]

Callisto will get arrested for shoplifting, because of that Hope loses hope and then a big white light and HoX and PoX start next.

[MYCMTSC]

He will end it with more brown mutants under his feet.

[Maestro 216]

Scott wakes up from his coffin realizing it was just a dream.

[Criticalfan]

All 616 x-men die, replaced on Earth-616 by teleporting in the x-men of Earth-8675309 or something.

[Ropeburn]

Truth to tell...I don't know and don't care, and it's not worth my time or energy to even think about it...just that it's ending is good enough.

This. This. And...this.

This seems likely. The omega will have Jean and Scott confront Nate, this time as mom and dad, and they’ll tell him he messed up, they love Cable not him, he was an abomination, and his beard is stupid. Nate will cry, reverse everything and then commit sudoku.
