After an epic battle seen in the previous episode of "Game of Thrones" season 6, titled "Battle of the Bastards," fans are now looking forward to the season finale. More than that, rumors about season 7 are now starting to surface.

One of the most awaited truths about season 7 concerns "Lord Stoneheart." If he doesn't make an appearance in season 6's finale, fans are wondering if he will soon make it to season 7.

While people might be rooting for a Catelyn Stark (Michelle Fairley) resurrection, there are also theories suggesting that The Brotherhood Without Banners might resurrect Robb Stark (Richard Madden) instead, according to a report from Bustle. The Brotherhood's Beric Dondarrion (Richard Dormer) made an appearance in season 6 and fans hoped that this serves as a hint of Robb's resurrection so he can help out Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Sansa (Sophie Turner).

But after the epic battle last week, that story prediction didn't pan out. But that doesn't mean that it's the end of a possibility. Showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss already said last year that Lady Stoneheart won't be part of the story, but it's also possible that they'll give fans a big surprise by having Lord Stoneheart as part of the story.

Meanwhile, other theories suggest that season 7 will feature more drama based on the casting call news from Watchers on the Wall. The report mentioned that the show is casting a 16-year-old Northern girl and a much younger, 10-year-old Northern boy. While conclusions cannot be made at this time, it is speculated that the new season will show a series of flashbacks.

At this point, fans still have one episode left to watch, and with Jon and Sansa claiming victory over the North, it remains to be seen if he will be joined by the other Stark siblings.

The "Game of Thrones" season 6 finale airs on Sunday, 9 p.m. ET on HBO.
