A Friday Morning Browse Through 5Dimes' MITB 2015 Markets

It has been over a day since the 5Dimes Sportsbook opened its WWE Money in the Bank 2015 betting markets so - in this post - I am going to have a look through the current prices and see where the early fan money has gone.

The customers have evidently bet on King Barrett to get back to winning ways as his odds on winning the pay-per-view kickoff match have been backed from -190 to -300. His opponent, R-Truth, has gone out from +150 to +220.

The clients have also backed Nikki Bella to retain her WWE Divas Championship over Paige. The odds have moved from -140 to -170 with Paige now +130 from +100.

Ryback is now -1,500 after my first tracking of the odds had him favoured with a line of -1,850. I can understand this. I mentioned yesterday that it was a peculiar way to build interest in this match when they had Ryback do the Shell Shock on Big Show during Raw. Usually, the story would call for the PPV winner to look slightly weaker heading in to the PPV.

Big Show is now +700. He had been +900.

The market for the WWE Tag Team Championship contest remains stationary. The New Day are -420 favourites while The Prime Time Players are +300.

Dean Ambrose has been backed to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Seth Rollins. Despite still being an underdog, his price has dipped from +500 to +365.

Rollins has obviously improved going from -900 to -555.

In what could be a correlated result, Roman Reigns winning the Money in the Bank briefcase has also been the early bettors' pick.

He's now -650 to claim the prize of an immediate title shot. At this time yesterday, the WrestleMania 31 main eventer was -510.

If the bets have been going the way of Ambrose, it's logical for the money to also go the way of Reigns as fans are predicting that Roman Reigns will cash in the title shot against his friend immediately after the latter secures the championship.

Finally, the John Cena .vs. Kevin Owens market has been back-and-forth. Cena was -160 when I checked at 7:30 yesterday morning and was then -190 at around 11:40pm BST. He is now -170. In the same period, Owens has gone from +120 to +150 to +130. So, both sides are being punted on at this point.

We're still days away from the matches. Still enough time for other twists and turns from a betting - and storyline - perspective.

The above odds were correct as of 8:30am BST. Find out the latest on the betting board at 5Dimes.com.
