Before I begin - if you don't know what the Road to WrestleMania Feud markets are, it's explained in THIS POST.
As we now know, UFC 226 contained a setup of a Brock Lesnar versus Daniel Cormier match for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. I made a point of noting all of the odds at 7:30AM BST because I anticipated prices to have changed as soon as the news of Lesnar/Cormier started to sweep through.
I was mildly surprised when I looked at the odds for the Lesnar .vs. Reigns Feud market.
Sometime between 9PM BST on Saturday night and the aforementioned 7:30AM on Sunday morning, Lesnar's odds to win his next potential match with Reigns dipped from 4/1 into 19/5 while his opponent was moved up to 2/15 from 1/8.
The price for Lesnar to get another decision over Reigns has once again lowered, as of 1PM this afternoon, as it is now 7/2. A win for Reigns will now pay out at odds of 2/13.
As I've written many times when covering the Lesnar/Reigns feud, the latter has failed enough times and should really go over if they ever cross paths. Whether it happens imminently is the question. For bets, to stand, the match has to take place at any point between now and the end of WrestleMania 35 (there are other qualifying rules that I recommend reading in this post). Should this rematch not take place before then, any bets will be voided.
Here are some notes about the other feud markets that are online.
AJ Styles .vs. Daniel Bryan
This has been going the way of Daniel Bryan. His price started off at 13/20 on June 23rd, fell to 8/13 by the 27th and was moved to 3/5 by July 7th.
Styles has moved out from 11/10 to 23/20 to 6/5 in this time.
AJ Styles .vs. Samoa Joe
This is what I believe the WWE Championship match at SummerSlam will be. The action has gone the way of Samoa Joe as he was 7/10 on June 23rd and is now at 13/20. A win for Styles has increased from EVS to 11/10.
Bobby Lashley .vs. Brock Lesnar
Another match I originally thought would take place at SummerSlam, but now I am unsure.
It's Bobby Lashley who has moved here. His odds have fallen from the opening 4/6 into 8/13. A victory for the current Universal Champion has moved to 23/20 from 27/25.
Daniel Bryan .vs. Roman Reigns
Reigns' odds to get a result over Bryan have declined from 17/20 (June 26th) to 4/5 (June 27th) and were at 3/4 when the market was republished.
A Bryan win will now pay out at 19/20. It opened at 17/20, but had risen to 9/10 by the following day.
Daniel Bryan .vs. Samoa Joe
This has see-sawed.
The first sign of action came in favour of Daniel Bryan getting the decision over Samoa Joe as his odds fell to 19/20 from EVS within the first day. He has since moved back up to his opening price.
Joe drifted to 3/4 before landing back at 7/10.
Daniel Bryan .vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
The customers have seemingly backed Bryan to get a decision over Shinsuke Nakamura if they ever meet between the time of the bet being struck and the end of WrestleMania 35.
Bryan's odds opened at 11/20, went to 13/25 in their first day and is now at 1/2. As a result, a win for Shinsuke Nakamura has moved from 5/4 to 28/20 and currently rests at 7/5.
Daniel Bryan .vs. The Miz
This is a match that many people are expecting to see play out in the not too distant future. The first sign of action has gone in favour of the babyface as he has lowered from 13/20 to 8/13.
A win for The Miz opened at 11/10 but has risen to 23/20.
Roman Reigns .vs. Seth Rollins
Roman Reigns has dipped from 3/4 into 4/6 to get the W in his next match with Seth Rollins. A victory for the latter will pay out at 27/25 after opening at a slightly shorter 19/20.
Alexa Bliss .vs. Ronda Rousey
Yet another potential SummerSlam match-up. Unsurprisingly, the bettors have backed Ronda Rousey to win against the current WWE Raw Women's Champion. The favourite opened at 1/5, fell to 1/6 and is now at 2/13.
Alexa Bliss is now 7/2, but opened at 3/1 before spending time at 13/4.
Charlotte Flair .vs. Ronda Rousey
A Charlotte Flair .vs. Ronda Rousey match is a betting favourite to headline WrestleMania 35. The punters have sided with Flair to win this one as her odds have moved down from 7/4 into 7/5. A win for Ronda will now payout at 1/2 which is a slight increase from 2/5.
All other markets - apart from Bobby Lashley .vs. Roman Reigns because it is now official for Extreme Rules 2018 - remain unchanged from the day they first went live. They are:
Bobby Lashley 7/4
Braun Strowman 2/5
Braun Strowman 1/4
Brock Lesnar 5/2
Braun Strowman 7/10
Daniel Bryan EVS
Brock Lesnar 17/20
Daniel Bryan 17/20
John Cena 2/13
The Undertaker 7/2
Asuka 7/10
Charlotte Flair EVS
Asuka 11/5
Ronda Rousey 3/10
Ronda Rousey 1/16
Stephanie McMahon 6/1
For what it's worth, the Bobby Lashley versus Roman Reigns market opened with Lashley a 23/20 underdog to Reigns' 8/13.
