I was shown a WrestleMania special that was available from PaddyPower.com yesterday. It was specific to the Roman Reigns versus The Undertaker match and was a Yes/No where customers could wager on The Undertaker announcing his retirement during WrestleMania 33.
The market was up for such a short amount of time that I failed to catch it. However, the odds that I was shown had the 'No' at 4/9 and the 'Yes' available at 13/8.
When I saw the screen, the first thing I thought was that 4/9 for the negative was spot on. Unless - of course - there was a retirement stip added on Raw that was due to start.
Alas, no such stipulation was added during the episode, so that obviosly strengthens the feeling that 'No' will win out.
If Roman Reigns wins on Sunday, having The Undertaker then announce he's retiring will take something away from Reigns' moment. In my opinion, the victory for Reigns - if it happens - should be where the spotlight is shined. Not on Taker making his retirement speech.
The Undertaker - if he ever talks about finishing up his career - should do it at a time when the spotlight is on him and only on him. Like the Monday after WrestleMania, for example.
I cannot see it happening at WrestleMania 33, which is required for the 'Yes' to be graded a winner.
