Tonight's Shane Special

One of the best prop bets I placed for last year's WrestleMania was when I backed Shane McMahon to jump from the top of the cage.

I was sure Shane would do some sort of a stunt during his Hell in a Cell match against The Undertaker, but - when the market was first installed - the oddsmakers at Kambi were offering 18/25 and didn't feel compelled to back it.

Holding out paid off as, on April 1st 2016, customers must have backed the 'No' as the 'Yes' had drifted out to 3s.

As we all know, the wager paid off after McMahon dropped an elbow onto The Undertaker from the roof of the cell.

The bookies have a similar market this year. This time it's only a straight 'Yes' with the rule being 'Shane McMahon to jump from anywhere acknwledged to be 10 feet or more'.

I'm sure there will be a stunt bump done by Shane tonight. For it to win, I guess at least one of the announcers must give an estimated height exceeding ten feet or more for bets to be settled as winners.

The market has been available since the early hours of Friday morning. The price has remained at 2/5.

  1. Normal match though, how can he go anywhere and not be counted out? I'd take the no, if available.
