Thecharacter’s death sparked some fan theories, but the reality is slightly disappointing.
A month later, they act as if it never happened.
But what about the two other cars involved in the crash?
What was the point of including them in the story if nothing would come of it?
Why were Victoria and Rey on the road?
Victoria Newman had just learned that her lying new husband, Ashland Locke, had told one more lie.
This was the one that sent her over the edge.
He lied that he had cancer, and that was a bridge too far for Victoria.
Sharon knew something was wrong before Nick Newman even told her what happened (viaMichael Fairman TV).
What if Victoria and Ashland had more to do with the crash?
Although Rey died, why couldn’t a pivotal legacy character like Victoria have been left in a coma?
Plus, Ashland first romanced Victoria to get a hold of Newman Enterprises.
That would have set up a showdown with the Newman clan.
Was Rey’s death all about Sharon and Nick?
Why add that little bit in if it meant nothing to the story?
Her recording could prove that Ashland caused the crash and that would prompt Sally to blackmail him.
She ousted him again just after the crash.
That could have an effect on future storylines for years to come.
