A Look Over The Results Of Last Week's TV Prop Bets

Kambi released a few proposition markets for last week's professional wrestling TV ratings. I covered all of the show-specific markets as soon as I became aware of the ratings for them. However, I decided to hold off on writing about the props that required the ratings for more than one of the shows until today.

Before I begin this post, it's best to bring those who may have missed last week's ratings up to speed. Here are the audience numbers for the shows along with links to the respective pages.

Monday's episode of WWE Raw had an average audience of 2,334,333. I wrote about the proposition for the Raw number IN THIS POST. A couple of days after that, I released THIS POST with both the AEW Dynamite and NXT numbers. AEW's show had 1,018,000 while NXT had 790,000. Finally, on Saturday evening, I took a look at Smackdown's total average of 2,898,500 IN THIS POST.

Combined Audience
Seeing as I have all the numbers in the paragraph above, I may as well begin with the big one that was released which asked customers whether the combined audience number for all of the above shows would be '8 Million or more'. If you add them all up, the total was 7,040,833. Therefore, the winning selection was 'No' which was 27/25 from October 6th right up to Monday evening. 

The losing selection, 'Yes', was 4/6.

Raw To Have 1.1 Million or More Than AEW
There was a prop which asked customers whether Monday Night Raw would have 1.1 Million or more viewers than AEW Dyamite. 

4/5 was applied to 'Yes' while the 'No' was 9/10.

As we know, Raw had 2,334,333 and Dynamite had 1,018,000. Therefore, the 'Yes' turned out to be the winning selection as Raw had 1,316,333 more than AEW's flagship.

AEW To Have 0.5 Million More Than NXT
Kambi had a prop which saw the two Wednesday shows competing. The bookies asked the customers whether AEW would have at least 500,000 more viewers than NXT.

Both 'Yes' and 'No' started off at 17/20 apiece. However, within a couple of days, the odds for the 'No' were taken down to 3/4 while the 'Yes' was increased to 19/20.

TV Prop Bet: AEW Dynamite .vs. NXT (October 9 2019)

AEW beat NXT, but it didn't do it by 500,000. The difference was 228,000. Therefore, those that appear to have sided with the 'No' made the correct call.

Raw .vs. AEW and NXT
Another proposition saw Monday Night's Raw number going up against the two shows from Wednesday night (AEW and NXT). The question asked was whether Monday's audience would beat the combined number for AEW Dynamite and NXT. The 'Yes' was a 7/10 favourite over the 'No' at EVS. 

AEW and NXT had a combined total audience of 1,808.000. This was below the 2,334,333 for Raw, so the winning selection was 'Yes'.

Smackdown To Have 1.2 Million More Than Raw
There was a prop in which clients could bet whether or not Smackdown had 1.2 Million more viewers than Raw. 

The 'Yes' was EVS over the 7/10 for the 'No'.

The winning selection turned out to be the favourite as Smackdown only beat Raw by 564,167.

FOX .vs. USA Network
The proposition titled 'FOX .vs. USA Network' saw Smackdown's audience going up against the combined number for the two shows on the USA Network - Raw and NXT.

Customers were asked whether Smackdown would get a higher audience total than both of those shows. The 'Yes' was an 11/20 favourite over the 5/4 for 'No'.

Raw and NXT's combined number was 3,124,333. Therefore, it beat the 2,898,500 for Smackdown. 

That's a win for the 'No'.

Earlier today, I published THIS POST pointing out the prop markets that have been published for this week's TV shows starting with tonight's WWE Monday Night Raw.
