Another 2 'Champion After' Markets And Another Speculative Punt

Sky Bet priced up a couple of 'Champion After' markets today.  Both of them are for the two tag team championships on WWE's main roster.

The Smackdown Tag Team Champions After New Day list has The Bar at the top as 6/4 favourites. They're followed by Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson (2/1), The Bludgeon Brothers (4/1), Sanity (5/1), The Usos (6/1) and then Primo and Epico at 12/1.

I haven't placed a bet on this market, but I did on the Raw one.

It lists The Authors of Pain as 6/4 favourites to succeed The B-Team as titleholders. The Revival are next up at 7/2 followed by The Ascension (9/2), The Deleters of Worlds (5/1), Heath Slater and Rhyno (6/1), The Shield (8/1) and Titus Worldwide (8/1).

Of the listed, the selection I thought I'd take a speculative punt on is the one for The Shield. Had I seen Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre on the list, I would have had punt on them as well, but I'll continue with my reasoning on The Shield.

With Seth Rollins holding the Intercontinental Championship and Roman Reigns with the Universal Title, a title win for Dean Ambrose would allow for the Hounds of Justice to be in possession of Raw's Triple Crown.

It would kind of be a repeat of a plan they seemingly had last year before Dean Ambrose went down injured, but Ambrose and Rollins having a spell as tag champs before a split could be rehashed.

After writing all that, you watch.. it'll be Ziggler and McIntyre!
