Latest Odds For The 9/10 Episode Of Smackdown

Charlotte Flair's odds to beat WWE Smackdown Women's Champion - Becky Lynch - on next week's episode of Smackdown have declined since yesterday night.

The challenger to Lynch's title was 9/4 when I first wrote about the market. She is now down to 13/8 after stopping at 7/4.

Date/Time
Becky Lynch
Charlotte Flair
6/10 10:25PM
1/3
9/4
7/10 4:45PM
2/5
7/4
7/10 6:10PM
4/9
13/8

As a result of Flair's price having been cut, Sky Bet has moved the favourite up from 1/3 to 4/9.

I was one of the gamblers who backed Flair after an idea struck me today. 

During their match at Super Show-Down yesterday morning, Lynch attempted to walk away with her belt before Flair brought her back in. The strap was then used by Lynch to set up Flair being victorious by disqualification. I think there's a chance that - on Tuesday - Lynch will once again take her title. This time, however, she'll leave and lose the match by count-out. 

I'll go one further and predict that Tuesday's result will set up a lumberjack match for WWE Evolution. Doing this kind of bout will allow for past stars to return for the all-women PPV.

Update: After publishing the post I found out that WWE has announced, via its website, that - should Lynch be disqualified on Tuesday - she'll lose her title. I think this strengthens the chance of a count-out in favour of Charlotte.
