Goto has been installed as an 11/25 favourite to win the match. A decision in favour of Takagi is currently priced at 8/5.
The favourite is one of the four potential winners of the block. All are on ten points.
Goto .vs. Takagi is positioned as the semi-main event of Sunday's card. It is sandwiched between Jon Moxley (10 points) versus Juice Robinson (6 points) and the main event which will see Tetsuya Naito and Jay White - who are both on ten points - in a fight to get to twelve.
I had a feeling that Juice Robinson could be positioned as a spoiler in the final match when the market was published in June. It could still happen, but I can also see Moxley reaching twelve points, Takagi beating Goto to spoil Goto's run for B Block and then the main event with Jay White going over Naito. This would place White and Moxley at twelve points, but White would win the block as he has a win over Moxley.
The above paragraph was a long-winded way to state that I like Takagi at 8/5.
And I still like White to win B Block. It seems I am going against the consensus, though. If you look at the table below, you'll see that White's odds to win the block have moved to 7/4 from 13/10.
I don't believe White will win the G1, so have also backed him to be the 'Losing Finalist'. His price was moved out to 23/10 from 2/1 earlier today.
Back to the Goto .vs. Takagi match - the bookies are also accepting wagers on the match being a draw. The odds on offer are 9/4.
The third market is a Wrestling Observer star rating Over/Under market. It has a line of four-and-a-half stars.
