Dunne Cut In Rumble Appearance Market

WWE UK Champion, Pete Dunne, has been cut from 1/2 into 4/11 in a betting market where Paddy Power customers can cash in if he is an official entrant in the 2018 Royal Rumble.

I think it's safe to conclude that the price was cut because of a story that was released over the weekend which noted that Dunne was pulled from this coming weekend's show for Britannia Wrestling Promotions due to - as BWP states - 'last minute contractual obligations to WWE.'

Dunne being unable to appear for BWP doesn't necessarily confirm that he'll be in the battle royal next weekend, but it does lead one to assume WWE wants him in Philadelphia this weekend. It could simply to do work for NXT.

Dolph Ziggler and Kane are both joint-favourites to appear in the Rumble at 1/9 apiece. Next up is Chris Jericho at 3/10, which is absurd considering Fozzy has a concert in Paris on the night of the Royal Rumble. This means Jericho will not be a participant in the match.

    Its hard to predict RR participants. In every RR we see some jobbers, but this year there is a lot top superstars. Do you made your own list of RR participants?
