Vader passed away on Monday night. His price has been affected by this news because it has been snipped from 8/1 into 5/1.
As I wrote in the Hall of Fame odds update from May 11th - when I pointed out Vader's odds fall from 25/1 into 12/1 - I didn't believe he had a chance of being the headline act of a WWE Hall of Fame simply because of how he was booked in his short tenure with the company. Now that he has passed on, I think the chance of him being the main event of a ceremony is even less likely.
The other name who has been cut is Vince McMahon. His price has dipped from 12/1 into 10/1.
One thing that is well-known about Vince McMahon and the Hall of Fame is that he always likes the ceremonies to be about the talent and not himself.
With that said, I wonder whether the customer who has backed McMahon has done so with the idea that it'll be the thirty-fifth anniversary of WrestleMania in New York - the city where Mania was born.
IWGP Intercontinental Champion, Chris Jericho, and Daniel Bryan have had their prices increased. The former has risen from 8/1 to 10/1 and Bryan is now 12/1 from 8s.
The Undertaker remains a 3/5 favourite. Next up is The Rock at 7/4.
