Revisiting Betfair's Clash Of Champions Props

The Betfair Sportsbook's WWE prop bets made a welcomed return this weekend after the traders from the firm published a handful of specials on Friday. They followed that up a last night by adding a few more.

In this post, I'll look through some of the markets and see what the customers have been betting on.

An Official WrestleMania 33 Match To Be Announced On The Night?

I have been told this special will be available for most of the PPVs heading into the close of the year and as we near WrestleMania season. The 'Yes' was offered at 10/3 when it first went live. It is now available at 7/2 so I assume the traders increased the price to get some more interest.

An RKO To Be Performed On The Night?

This was a surprising addition considering Randy Orton is a member of the Smackdown brand. That's why the price being offered - 10/1 - is higher than would usually be on the board. The odds haven't changed since Friday.

Any Belt To Be Used As A Weapon?

This is another prop that has stayed as it was when it first went live. It's 5/2 if you think that there'll be a spot in the show tonight where one of the heel champions, or challengers for that matter, uses a belt against their opponent.

Any Match To End In A DQ?

It's a night of championship matches, so a DQ finish could be one way of getting a person a win without losing the title. Yes, I'm looking at you, Rusev.

The prices have stayed the same as they were when they first made their way to the website. A winning bet on 'Yes' will pay out at even money. The 'No' is favoured at 8/11.

The Ring To Collapse

This one has increased from 10/1 to 12/1.

Number Of Tables Broken On The Night?

This is an Over/Under with the line set at 0,5. I liked the 'Over' and bet on it when it was EVENS. It has now been cut to 8/13. A winning punt on the 'No' option is now 23/20 but had been 8/11.

A Referee To Be Knocked Down In Any Match?

If you think one of the bouts on tonight's card will have a ref bump, then the 6/5 is a great price for you. If not, you can back the 'No' at 4/7.

HHH To Interfere In The Main Event? (Must Be Physically Involved In Match)

This one was installed at 6/4 and has seen action as it has been cut to 5/4. I understand that many people are predicting Hunter will return tonight, but I think it's too soon if the long-term goal is to have HHH face Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 33.

Total Pedigrees To Be Performed In The Main Event

This is an Over/Under with the line set at 2.5 Pedigrees. I'm leaning on the Under and it seems the punters are as well as the oddsmakers have moved it from 8/11 to 4/6.

The 'Over' has increased from EVENS to 11/10.

Goldberg To Enter The Ring And Perform 2 Or More Spears

With Goldberg being in Indianapolis this weekend, I thought there would be some people looking to bet on the former WCW and WWE World Champion making an appearance during the PPV. Asking for him to show up and then doing TWO spears was first put up at 2/1. I felt the odds were too short considering the likelihood of it happening. The traders have since increased the price to 9/2. I still think it's too short.

3 Or More Matches To End In A Submission

This option was offered at 9/4 when it went up last night. It has now been increased to 5/2. If this was published as an Over/Under, I would have backed the 'Under'.

Any Match To End In A Double Count-Out Or Double Pinfall

This one was suggested by a regular visitor to this blog, Jordan Kaye as he believes the Sheamus versus Cesaro match could end in a double pin to set up yet another match. If there is a double count-out, or even a double pin, on tonight's card, you're looking at a 2/1 winner.

As mentioned above, I was glad to see Betfair's props return for this weekend's PPV.. If you've had a punt on any of these markets - GOOD LUCK!

And if you haven't, there's still time. You can view the markets alongside other Clash of Champions match markets in the 'Special Bets' section of the Betfair Website.
