Betfair Puts Up Two WrestleMania 33 Specials

The Betfair Sportsbook has added two new markets to its WWE betting page. Both of them are WrestleMania 33 related.

The first market is allowing the customers to predict what the main event match will be on the night.

A regular singles match is the current favourite at odds of 5/4. Next up is one that I have a feeling will get some attention and that's 'Any Handicap-type Match' at 6/4.

Wrestling fans have been clamouring for a three-way between the former members of The Shield and I can certainly see some people going for that selection.

With that said, and despite previous WrestleMania main events featuring three-ways, Vince McMahon is reported to not like having these bouts as the main events, so I am more tempted to play it safe and go for the singles option.

The other choices on the board are:

Any hardcore-based match 6/4
Hell in a Cell 9/2
Tables, Ladders and Chairs 11/2
Ladder match 13/2
Falls count anywhere 12/1
Iron man 12/1
Lumberjack match 25/1
Sumo match 100/1

If you don't see a match listed and would like to bet on it, I'm sure the traders would add it for you.

The second market is a list of wrestlers who could potentially wrestle in the main event of the show. At the top of the shop is Roman Reigns. He's EVENS and is then followed by the other ex-Shield colleagues: Seth Rollins (5/4) and Dean Ambrose (6/4). 

They're followed up by:

Brock Lesnar 2/1
John Cena 5/2
Randy Orton 3/1
Braun Strowman 5/1
Bray Wyatt 5/1
Cesaro 5/1
Dolph Ziggler 5/1
Kevin Owens 5/1
HHH 5/1
The Big Show 13/2
Shane McMahon 13/2
Sheamus 13/2
AJ Styles 10/1
Chris Jericho 10/1
Kalisto 10/1
Kane 10/1
Rusev 10/1
The Rock 10/1
The Undertaker 10/1
Alberto Del Rio 14/1
King Barrett 14/1
Mark Henry 14/1
Neville 14/1
Sami Zayn 14/1
The Miz 14/1
Baron Corbin 14/1
Damien Sandow 20/1
Erick Rowan 20/1
Finn Balor 20/1
Heath Slater 25/1
Jack Swagger 25/1
Titus O'Neil 25/1
Zack Ryder 25/1
Alex Riley 33/1
El Torito 33/1
Goldberg 33/1
Goldust 33/1
Vince McMahon 33/1

Just like with the other markets, Betfair will accommodate any requests for other names to be added to the board.

I have had a few bets on this one already. 

I've taken Undertaker at 10/1, John Cena 5/2 and The Rock at 10/1.

The first two is just in case the company decide to go with the Cena versus Undertaker match they had been hoping to do for this year's event. The final one is just in case they decide to run with The Rock versus Triple H. 

This will be another market I'll be following over the course of the next year. Expect more updates along the way.

Odds correct as of 11:56pm this evening. Betfair's WWE odds can be found under 'Special Bets' at Betfair.com.
