Raw's MITB Participants Cut In SummerSlam Champion Market

In a post published yesterday, I mentioned that the Kambi oddsmakers have been taking bets on who will be holding the WWE Universal Championship at the end of SummerSlam 2018 on August 19th.

I had a look through this special at midday today and have noticed something interesting.

WWE Universal Champion After SummerSlam 2018

Three selections have been cut since the market was republished on Wednesday evening. All three of these wrestlers are set to represent the Raw brand in the Money in the Bank ladder match on June 17th.

Braun Strowman is now back to favouritism after opening at 4/5 late last month. He has been backed into 5/4 from Wednesday's 3/1.

The move means the most recent joint-favourites, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns, are both now in second at 7/4. They were 5/4 a couple of days ago.

The other two Raw participants in the ladder match - Kevin Owens and Finn Balor - dropped from 10/1 to 8/1 and 12/1 to 10/1 respectively.

Bobby Roode, who is another ladder match participant for Raw, does not feature in this market, but - if he had been - I wouldn't have been surprised to have seen his price lowered as well. 

I guess a punter (or punters) is (or are!) hoping that the ladder match is won by somebody from Raw and the cash-in will take place by the end of play on August 19th.

For what it's worth, the WWE Champion market is still showing the same pricing as when I wrote about it yesterday evening.
