Brock Lesnar Now -125 To Win The 2016 Royal Rumble

I have spent a good part of the week making regular visits to the 5Dimes Sportsbook in the hope of catching the publication of Survivor Series 2015 lines. There still hasn't been a sign of them. Instead, I've gone through the company's Royal Rumble odds to see any changes that have been made since I last checked in with them.

The most notable difference has been at the top of the list. Brock Lesnar, who was always a favourite to win, has now been backed from +425 to -125.

This move from plus to negative pricing is sure to be a byproduct of Seth Rollins' injury and the decision to run with a WWE World Heavyweight Championship tournament at the Survivor Series.

The bettors have evidently picked Roman Reigns as the potential winner of tomorrow night's tournament and are aware that one of the reported plans for WrestleMania 32 is to have Brock Lesnar versus Roman Reigns in a rematch from last year's event.

One way to get to this match-up is to have Reigns win the title and then have Lesnar be victorious in January's battle royal to secure the number one contender tag.

Even though The Beast's price has plummeted, there are other wrestlers on the board whose odds are less than they were a few months ago. Here are the rest:

Kevin Owens has dropped from +725 to +500
Roman Reigns from +700 to +675
Cesaro from +1,700 to +1,500
John Cena from +1,000 to +550
Dolph Ziggler from +2,600 to +2,500
The Rock from +5,250 to +3,000
Triple H from +6,000 to +5,500
Stardust from +6,000 to +5,500
Kurt Angle from +8,500 to +5,500
Fandango +12,500 to +10,000
Ric Flair +19,000 to +15,000

We're sure to get a better idea on where things could be going once tomorrow night's event concludes. I'll continue looking out for the release of Survivor Series odds from 5Dimes. Be sure to check back over the course of the weekend.

If you're a 5Dimes customer, you'll be able to find these markets filed in the 'Other Sports' category under 'Futures' at 5Dimes.com.
