I want Bones at hw too but I think it's unrealistic to get excited for it in 2016. Jones will probably want to at least beat Gus again (after taking the belt back from mr placeholder) to silence critics. Jones himself tweeted something along the lines of "dc, gus, rumble, hw".
If Conor doesn't beat RDA, he'll be in a tough spot. He won't be fulfilling his dream of conquering two belts, and he may very well have to let go of his FW belt for being impossible to make that weight again, specially if the new weigh cut policy issued by CSAC spreads to the other commissions.
In that scenario, he may have to work his way up again at the LW division.
If Aldo fights Edgar for the FW next, which is what looks like is happening next, either Aldo or Edgar could go up to LW as FW Champions to challenge McGregor in a superfight, if he is the Champion.
If he is not the Champion, Aldo will like to go up in weight just to challenge him anyway and then come back to his division to avoid a clash with RDA.
Conor vs RDA because it's gonna be awesome for so many reasons no matter what happens
Hendricks vs Lawler 3 to finally get a definitive answer. I felt Johny won both matches but it could be argued that their actual wins were flip flopped.

That would be a fantastic fight. I feel like Wonderboy deserves the shot against Lawler, though. Besides, who else is gonna fight Lawler now? The timing will probably work well, too. Lawler is healing from a war but Thompson got punched all of once.
