Winning (And Losing) Royal Rumble Request A Bets From 2017

With the 2017 WWE Royal Rumble now in the books, I have looked back at some of the specials that were requested by SkyBet.com customers to see the offerings that turned out to be successful.

In this post, I'll point out the options that won and came (sort of) close.

Finn Balor NOT To Be In The Final Four
A request was made for the Irishman not to be in the final four. It was around 1/2 when I caught the price. I have been told that this was credited as a winner.

Chris Jericho To Last The Longest Amount Of Time In The Royal Rumble Match
This request was added a little over a week before the Royal Rumble. It was 12/1, but had fallen to 10/1 by the day of the show. Jericho was indeed the person who lasted the longest amount of time in the match as he clocked in a performance that lasted one hour and thirteen seconds.

Tye Dillinger Number 10
This turned into one of the most popular selections. It opened at around 5/6 on January 12th and was backed instantly. It went as low as 1/4 before it was taken off the board shortly after Dillinger sent out a tweet promoting the Royal Rumble.

Randy Orton To Win, Strowman Most Eliminations, Bray Wyatt In Final Four
This was 1/3 when I caught it on the night of the show It worked out to be a winning choice for anyone who backed it as Orton was victorious. Strowman sent seven wrestlers packing and Wyatt was the penultimate man eliminated.

Close, But No Cigar
Sami Zayn to last the longest (10/1 to 8/1) - He was next behind Chris Jericho
Bill Goldberg to eliminate 5 or more participants (6/4 to 5/6) - He threw out three

The markets were available for most of January on Sky Bet's WWE Betting Page.
