Yeah, after reading around I'm beginning to believe more and more that it'll be Maelstrom. There are a lot of possibilities for awesome zones.

The zombified and skeletal remains of these unfortunates wander the Boiling Terrace, raging at their fate. The naga fear the undead and avoid this area; so far, they have managed to avoid outright conflict with the millennia-strong drowned men and women. |

Still, the name Cataclysm seems an odd choice if that's all it is. I'm really expecting it to be more than just the islands and under the maelstrom, and that it'll somehow affect Azeroth as a whole.
Even if the Great Sundering was called the Cataclysm, that's something that has already happened. If the expansion is titled that, wouldn't it suggest another one is going to happen?
