What I usually do is list all the sportsbooks that have offered WWE betting in the past and note whether they had published odds for the most recent PPV. However - with WrestleMania having been the previous event, the idea is hindered slightly as some sportsbooks only show up for Mania while others might have decided, following the success of new customer sign-ups or profit from WrestleMania, that they'll continue offering WWE odds beyond WrestleMania season. Therefore, the list will be categorised into three groups: those that I have a strong feeling will have Extreme Rules odds out, those that have a medium chance and ones I am unsure about.
Even though I have ranked them into three groups, it's still worth trying ALL on the list. As noted, some of these companies might have felt they brought in enough custom for WrestleMania that a decision might have been made to continue offering them to customers.
Below the short write-up for each sportsbook is a link from either this blog or BetOnWrestling.co.uk for new customers to get the latest offers. Both of these websites are known to the firms, so if you are considering opening an account with any of the names listed, please choice to do it through these links. It will give us a better standing with the bookmakers if I can prove that there is an audience/potential customers out there willing to bet on WWE events each month. The best way I can do this is by letting them know I sent them via WWELeaks.org and BetOnWrestling.co.uk.
Thanks!
Now that I have that out of the way, here's the list..
Strong Chance
The 5Dimes Casino & Sportsbook is the go-to place for WWE betting. The company always hangs out WWE pay-per-view lines each and every month, so I am confident that there will be prices out in time for Extreme Rules in the week leading up to the show.
When they're out, you'll be able to find the prices in the 'Other Sports' section of 5Dimes' betting board on the 5Dimes Website.
Paddy Power
Paddy Power was the first company to publish betting odds for WrestleMania 31 and should be one of the first websites you check out for prices when it's closer to Extreme Rules.
Another thing that helped Paddy Power in the build-up to WrestleMania was the free publicity the company was given during the go-home episode of WWE Raw when Bad News Barrett, Booker T, JBL and Michael Cole conversed about Paddy Power having odds out for the WWE Intercontinental Championship ladder match. The commentators had the odds incorrect, but it's free publicity, right?
If you haven't signed up to be a new customer, you can get a welcome offer by following this link.
When up, you'll be able to find Extreme Rules betting odds on Paddy Power's WWE Page.
Sky Bet
Sky Bet has been publishing WWE betting lines on a regular basis for years, so I am sure there will be WWE Extreme Rules betting markets around in the days leading up to the show.
When these markets have been published, they'll be found under 'Wrestling' on the sportsbook menu.
If you aren't a Sky Bet customer, here's a welcome bonus for you
Medium Chance
BoyleSportsThe Irish bookmaker, BoyleSports, has published WWE betting odds on a semi-regular basis. The firm had markets available for WrestleMania 31, so it'll be worth having a look on the week of Extreme Rules.
When they're available, WWE odds are easy to find as they're listed under 'Wrestling' on the BoyleSports Website.
Here's a new customer bonus from BoyleSports
SportingBet
SportingBet is another betting firm that has published WWE markets sporadically over the years. The company did have WWE prices for WrestleMania 31, so it's possible there will be something up for Extreme Rules.
If the traders decide to have the markets up, they'll be viewable under 'Specials' on the SportingBet Website.
Here's a new customer deal from SportingBet
Ladbrokes
Similar to the above two sportsbooks, Ladbrokes has published WWE betting markets for most of the major and some of the minor events on the WWE calendar.
Ladbrokes did have WrestleMania 31 odds up. However - in 2014, Ladbrokes' published WrestleMania XXX markets, but didn't follow up with Extreme Rules.
If the traders do chalk up prices, they'll be found under 'Wrestling' on the Ladbrokes Website.

William Hill
William Hill has been offering WWE odds for many years. I would not be surprised in the least if there is something up for Extreme Rules.
The company had WrestleMania 31 lines up. There were also WrestleMania XXX markets last year and they did come through a month later with Extreme Rules prices. So, it is worth checking them out.
William Hill is ranked in the 'Medium Chance' because there have been a few PPVs in the past year where no odds were published. With that said, I do think it is one of the medium chances with potential.
If they're up, the William Hill Extreme Rules betting odds will be found under 'TV/Specials' on the William Hill website.
This is William Hill's new customer offer
Betfair Sportsbook
The Betfair Sportsbook first started taking bets on WWE last year when they opened a book on WrestleMania XXX. The company came back a month later and published lines for Extreme Rules 2014, so I think there's a possibility that the company will have something up in time for this year's edition of Extreme Rules.
I ranked the possibility in the middle because, just like William Hill, there have been months where Betfair has skipped a PPV in the past year.
Betfair is one of my favourite websites for pro wrestling wagering because the traders come up with unique prop bet ideas. It's always fun to see what they have devised.
If Betfair's Extreme Rules betting odds are published, you'll find them under 'US' in the 'Special Bet's category of the Betfair Website.

Unsure
YouWin & UWin
YouWin and its Canadian-facing partner UWin reopened its WWE betting markets last month for WrestleMania 31. This was despite one of the customer service reps for YouWin informing me the company had decided not to offer WWE betting again.
Therefore, I was surprised to see WrestleMania odds. I do not know whether this was a one-off because it was WrestleMania or if either company plans to come back this month.
What I do know is YouWin and UWin did offer Extreme Rules betting last year, so it might be worth checking out.
The only problem is YouWin no longer welcomes customers living in the UK, so it's mainly for punters living in other parts of Europe.
If or when they're available, you'll be able to see the odds on:
UWin's Specials Page (Canadian visitors)
YouWin's Special Page (Visitors in Europe)
Bovada / Bodog
The Bovada Sportsbook (US) and Bodog Sportsbook (Canada) both published betting odds for the most recent WrestleMania. They did so for WrestleMania XXX as well, but didn't produce wrestling markets for any other event. Therefore, both sportsbooks have been classed in the 'unsure' section.
If they do become available, wrestling odds can be found under 'Other Sports' on:
Bovada's Website (for US customers)
Bodog's Website (for Canadian customers)
Coral
Coral Bookmakers only publish betting odds for major shows like WrestleMania and SummerSlam, so I am not holding out hope that we'll see anything for Extreme Rules.
It's worth noting Coral published odds for WrestleMania this year and also in 2014. In 2014, the company did not do anything for that year's edition of Extreme Rules.
If we are fortunate to have another venue to place bets on WWE, then the WWE odds will be found under the 'Non-Sports A-Z' section of the Coral Website.
New customers can sign up for Coral's latest offer
Titan Bet
Titan Bet is a new bookmaker that has started showing interest in WWE betting and published betting odds for the most recent WrestleMania.
I'm definitely unsure what the chances are of Titan Bet publishing anything for Extreme Rules, so will be keeping an eye out for prices to show up all the way through the week of the PPV. I will also get in touch with them nearer to the day to get a better idea.
Titan Bet's WWE odds were available under 'Entertainment' on the Titan Bet Website.
bwin Sportsbook
bwin is another sportsbook that produced WWE betting markets for the very first time with the most recent PPV. It's because of this I am unsure whether the firm will continue or leave it for the major shows on the WWE calendar.
If they become available, WWE Extreme Rules lines will be found under 'Entertainment' on the bwin Website.
Winner
Winner is a sports betting brand that has been growing in the UK market. It also launched WWE betting for the very first time with WrestleMania, so I am once again unsure what the status is for Extreme Rules.
Hopefully, I will have a better idea in the days leading up to the event.
If they do end up being published, Winner's WWE Extreme Rules prices will be found in the 'Entertainment' section of the Winner Website.
And that's the list. I hope this has been of some help to you. Keep checking back, especially in the week of the pay-per-view, as I'll be creating posts as soon as I learn of sportsbooks' prices being published.
Good luck with your bets.
