Ambrose's MITB Odds Shorten

Dean Ambrose's odds to win this year's Money in the Bank ladder match have shortened from +260 into +180 overnight.

This move coincides with the taping of Smackdown that will end with Ambrose, Cesaro and Sami Zayn defeating Kevin Owens, Chris Jericho and Alberto Del Rio in a trios main event.

The episode will end with The Lunatic Fringe executing Dirty Deeds on Kevin Owens for the pinfall.

This move has signs of fan money reacting to the spoilers. This seems to be a thing lately. It was only yesterday that I was writing about Chris Jericho's price dropping because of how he was booked at the close of Raw.

Ambrose has had a good week. He got the best of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins even teasing that he would cash in the briefcase against them, he pinned Chris Jericho in Monday's main event, will score the pin for his team on Smackdown and have the broadcast end with him celebrating. That's enough to have me fade his chances of leaving the ladder match with the automatic title shot.

For what it's worth - going into Raw, I had the selections in the following order.

- Kevin Owens
- Chris Jericho
- Dean Ambrose
- Cesaro
- Sami Zayn
- Alberto Del Rio

I now have:

- Kevin Owens
- Cesaro / Chris Jericho
- Dean Ambrose
- Sami Zayn
- Alberto Del Rio

I moved Cesaro up where he is now sharing the 'Dark Horse' spot with Chris Jericho. I have kept Jericho in that band for a reason I explained in a post published yesterday.

Kevin Owens has never moved in this ranking. Doing the job in the upcoming Smackdown main event has strengthened his position at the top of this ranking.
