A market where clients can wager on the wrestler that wins the WWE Title match at Mania 33 has now been redone featuring talent from the Smackdown brand. This is because the title is now exclusive to the show.
This past week, on WWE Raw, it was announced that the winner of the Finn Balor versus Seth Rollins bout at SummerSlam 2016 will become the first ever WWE Universal Champion. Therefore, the oddsmakers have compiled a list of Raw stars that could be in contention to win the Universal Championship match on April 2nd of next year.

Dean Ambrose is favourite to win the WWE Title market as he is the current holder of the strap. In the other market, Seth Rollins is favoured as he's the bookie's choice to claim the Universal Championship at SummerSlam.
Finn Balor at 9/1 is very tempting. I have written a few times this week that I can see him losing at SummerSlam to set up a chase for the title that will culminate at WrestleMania. In somewhat related news, Balor's odds to win the 2017 Royal Rumble fell from 16/1 to 10/1 on Friday and have now dipped to 7s.
I know at least one visitor who is interested in the possibility of the Royal Rumble winner choosing to switch brands to challenge for the alternate championship. The 'Others on request' will allow you to request their names be added to the other list, if you wish.
Odds correct as of 11:30am BST. Bwin's WWE odds can be found under 'Entertainment' on the sportsbook menu at bwin.com.
