Last night, Mansoor was confirmed as being the latest addition to the WWE Monday Night Raw roster, so I thought I'd ask Sky Bet if he could be added to the company's Money in the Bank 2021 winner market that I wrote about in yesterday's post.
The wrestler - who has been positioned as the local babyface hero whenever WWE visits Saudi Arabia - lost to Sheamus via disqualification when Humberto Carillo attacked the current US Champion during the match.
On one side of the coin, I felt it was quite a rubbish finish considering it was Mansoor's debut on one of WWE's main brands. However, it was a protected loss of sorts considering he wasn't pinned or forced to submit.
Debuting against Sheamus places Mansoor in the midcard, but I thought it was worth a gamble on him winning the Money in the Bank briefcase just in case WWE wants him to cash in the contract for a title match whenever the company has another one of its Saudi-based PPVs within the next year.
Sky Bet installed the new selection at 25/1, but it has since been reduced to 16/1.
Big E remains Sky Bet's 5/1 favourite to be this year's Mr Money in the Bank.
