Backlash 2025 Odds Notes For 10:25PM BST

I revisited the WWE Backlash 2025 match markets at 10:25PM BST.

The only market with changed lines, since the most 9PM BST update, is for the Gunther versus Pat McAfee contest.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

As the underdog, Pat McAfee's price has continued to decline. At 10:25PM BST, I caught the price change from +400 into +350 as soon as I accessed the webpage.

Gunther is now -600. That's up from the -900 customers would have found him at 9PM.

Backlash 2025 Odds Notes For 9PM BST

Here are some observations I've made from a 9PM BST visit to the WWE Backlash 2025 markets from BetOnline.


Dominik Mysterio's price to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship, with a win over Penta, has now returned to -1,000 after dropping from -900.

Penta is back to being a +550 underdog - the price he had been when the market was first priced up earlier this week.

Pat McAfee's odds have once again slid in for the grudge match against Gunther. He's now +500 from +550 with Gunther moving up from -1,000 to -900.

The rest of BetOnline's markets remain stationary as of 9PM BST. Here are the price changes I've been able to record along the past few weeks.

Backlash 2025 Betting Note For Early Saturday Evening

The only active WWE Backlash 2025 betting market, from the previous update, has once again been adjusted.

In this morning's post, I pointed out that the betting for the Women's Intercontinental Championship match between Lyra Valkyria and Becky Lynch had once again seen the titleholder's odds shorten with Valkyria dipping from +250 into +225.

Since then, the market has been readjusted with Valkyria pushed back to +250 and Lynch, as the betting favourite, moving into -400 from -350.

Today's moves once again places the selections at the positions they were when I came across the market on April 29th.

You can check out This Morning's Post to see how the betting has gone for the rest of tonight's card. Those four markets have remained stationary from this morning through to 4:30PM BST today.

Backlash 2025 Odds For Saturday Morning

I have just visited the BetOnline Sportsbook for the first of what should be many times today to check in with the markets for tonight's WWE Backlash event.

As it currently stands, only one of the markets is showing different prices from when I last visited the website yesterday evening.

The market of note is for the Women's Intercontinental Championship.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

As you can see, the odds for Lyra Valkyria have once again dipped. This time, they've moved from +250 into +225. 

Becky Lynch, who will challenge Valkyria for the strap, remains a favourite. However, her price is now up from -400 to -350.

Here are all of the tables with price changes I've been able to follow for those of you who might be checking in with the betting for the first time.

Backlash '25 Odds Update For Friday Night

There's nothing new to report in regards to the WWE Backlash 2025 betting markets available from the BetOnline website.

All selections are at the prices I noted in this afternoon's post.

Backlash '25 Betting Update For Friday Afternoon

All but one of BetOnline's markets for tomorrow's WWE Backlash 2025 event are showing different prices from when I last visited the sportsbook yesterday.

Here's what has occurred in the hours since last night's update.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

Penta's price, to get a win over WWE Intercontinental Champion - Dominik Mysterio, has been snipped from +550 into +500.

As noted yesterday, the oddsmakers had kept the challenger at the +550 even though they lowered the champion from -1,000 into -1,250.

Mysterio is now up to -900 favourite.

The market for the Gunther versus Pat McAfee grudge match has once again seen the underdog's price dip with McAfee moving into +550 from +600. His top price had been +750.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

The interest in McAfee could be due to reports suggesting Bill Goldberg could be on his way back to WWE for a spell. The last time we saw Goldberg was at WWE Bad Blood last October. On that night, he and Gunther were involved in an angle which teased a possible future meeting between the two wrestlers. Nothing has been alluded to since that incident took place. 

Lyra Valkyria's price to successfully retain the Women's Intercontinental Championship over Becky Lynch has returned down to its earliest price of +250. 

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

When I last wrote about this particular market being adjusted, it was the challenger's odds moving in with Lynch seemingly being backed from -400 into -500. The favourite now returns to her prices from May 5th and April 29th.

The Undisputed WWE Championship match market has also been amended. However, only one selection is showing a change.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

The bookmakers have retained John Cena's price as a -5,000 favourite but have dropped Randy Orton's from +1,200 into +1,000.

So, counting all four adjustments - all have sided with the respective underdogs for those contests.

The unaltered market has seen WWE United States Champion, Jacob Fatu, kept at a heavy -5,000 to beat Drew McIntyre (+600), LA Knight (+900) and Damian Priest (+1,200) in a fatal four-way.


I intend to revisit the sportsbook's website sometime tonight.

Backlash 2025 Betting Update For May 8

It has been a couple of days since I published the most recent update about BetOnline's WWE Backlash 2025 betting markets. That's because there's little to report with only one selection changing since that time.

The wrestler of note is Dominik Mysterio. He has dipped from -1,000 into -1,250 for his WWE Intercontinental Title defence against Penta.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

As you can see above, even though Mysterio's price has been lowered, the bookmakers kept Penta at +550.

The remaining markets are still showing prices from previous updates. Here are the all of the tables with the adjustments I've been able to record.

Backlash 2025 Betting Update For May 5th

It has been a few days since I last published an update about the WWE Backlash 2025 markets from BetOnline. Since that post, the bookmakers have priced up odds for a new match that has been added to this week's card.

The bout of note will see Jacob Fatu (-2,500) defend the WWE US Championship in a fatal 4-way match against Drew McIntyre (+500), LA Knight (+700) and Damian Priest (+900).

The market was installed sometime between last night and 8:30PM BST today.

Of the three previously released markets, two have been adjusted since yesterday.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

John Cena's price to retain the Undisputed WWE Championship has fallen into -5,000 from -2,500. His challenger - Randy Orton - is now up from +800 to +1,200.

Women's WWE Intercontinental Champion - Lyra Valkyria - has been lowered from +275 into +200 in the market for her defence against Becky Lynch.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting

The move sees Lynch's price as favourite return to the -400 it had been when I first wrote about the betting opportunities for the event last week.

Customers will find that BetOnline has kept the Gunther .vs. Pat McAfee market at the prices they were in the latter part of last week.

Backlash 2025 Betting Odds Update For April 30th

The BetOnline Sportsbook has adjusted all of its WWE Backlash 2025 markets since I last wrote about them.

In yesterday's post, I noted that the oddsmakers had installed three betting opportunities for the May 10th event and that the market for the Gunther .vs. Pat McAfee match had changed with Gunther's price as the favourite dropping from -800 into -1,000. 


As you can see above, Gunther's odds dipped further shortly after yesterday's post went live. He's now into -1,200 with McAfee moving up to +750.

The initial price I have for the underdog is +425.

Other changes have seen Becky Lynch and John Cena drop in their respective markets.


Lynch, who will challenge Lyra Valkyria for the Women's Intercontinental Championship, is now -450 from -400. 

The titleholder has risen from +250 to +275.

John Cena's price to successfully retain the Undisputed WWE Championship with a win over St. Louis' Randy Orton is now -2,500, which is a drop from -2,000.


Those looking for an upset can find Orton at +800. He has risen from +700.

The BetOnline Sportsbook's oddsmakers have installed markets for WWE Backlash 2025.

As of this late afternoon, there are three betting opportunities for customers to gamble on. One of the markets has already seen some action.

As you'll be able to see, in the table below, BetOnline's email - sent at 16:19 BST today - had Gunther at -800. He has since dropped into -1,000.

WWE Backlash 2025 Betting Odds

With Gunther moving in, McAfee's price has risen to +550 from +425.

On last night's episode of WWE Raw, Lyra Valkyria offered Becky Lynch the opportunity to challenge for the Women's Intercontinental Championship. The titleholder has been installed at +250 while Lynch is a -400 favourite.

The first bout set up for the event will see local hero - Randy Orton - challenge John Cena for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
