Sky Bet Still Taking Bets On Angle's WrestleMania Opponent

In the first post of the day, I wrote about Sky Bet's 'Who Will Be Kurt Angle's Singles Opponent?' market for WrestleMaia and joked that I might be getting ahead of myself by declaring the 'Baron Corbin' selection a winner before it'll be settled on WrestleMania Sunday.

It seems that I really was jumping the gun.

I assumed Sky Bet's market wouldn't be reopened following last night's announcement by Kurt Angle that Baron Corbin will be his final opponent.

The firm has republished the market with Corbin now the betting favourite at 2/9. This is a drop from the 6/1 customers would have found him from Sunday right up to an hour before Raw.

I suppose, with the way WWE has been lately with matches being changed on the fly, that this is why the market has been republished. I think the match will go ahead as planned, but at least one person I've chatted to today - Abraham in the comments section of this post - is hoping John Cena takes Corbin's place as Raw comes from Cena's neck of the woods, Boston, next week.

Here's how the odds were looking as of 11AM GMT today.

  1. I just can’t see Corbin being Angle’s (only) WM opponent. Although it would be an entertaining crowd reaction
