A Look At Early Wagering In The WWE Money In The Bank 2014 Markets At Paddy Power

The favourites appear to be getting backed in WWE Money in the Bank 2014 wagering at PaddyPower.com.

Odds for this Sunday's pay-per-view were initially published earlier this afternoon and, since that time, the odds have shortened for most of the bookie's favourites.

Firstly, I will look at the tag team match that sees Rybaxel taking on Goldust & Stardust.

When this market opened, the Rhodes team were marked up as 1/8 favourites, with their opponents available at 9/2. There has been no change in betting on this match. 

Wagering on the second tag team match on Sunday's card tells a different story.

The Wyatts were first available at 4/11. Their price has now shortened to 2/7. In this same period, The Usos have drifted out from 15/8 to 9/4.

Both Seth Rollins and John Cena have been heavily backed to win their respective ladder matches.

Rollins - who had opened at 5/6 - is now marked up at 4/11 whilst John Cena has gone from 11/10 to 8/15.

It should be noted that a potential spoiler has been circulating concerning the main event of SummerSlam 2014, which may partially explain why Cena has been backed over the strongly booked Roman Reigns.

A picture appeared on the Amazon.com listing page for the SummerSlam 2014 Blu-ray. The picture had both Cena and Brock Lesnar on it fuelling speculation that the August 17th main event will see Lesnar challenge Cena for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

The most notable odds change has occured in the WWE Divas Championship market.

Paige's price to win, and retain, has gone from 1/6 to 1/18. It will be interesting to see if the bettors continue to back her now.

I will return tomorrow with another look at these match markets. 

Odds correct as of 10:30pm BST. For the latest, check out Paddy Power's WWE Betting Page.
