The match market I am referring to is the one for the Universal Championship.
When I checked in this morning, Brock Lesnar was at -105 to successfully retain his strap. The last price I had, before then, was the +110 from last night.
As a result of Lesnar's price moving in, the oddsmakers increased Seth Rollins to -135. He was -155 before Raw.
You'll see that Rollins has now been backed in -145 while Lesnar has drifted out to +105.

Another match market that was adjusted following Raw is the one for the Intercontinental Championship.
Finn Balor has dropped from -460 into -600. This is unsurprising considering Balor has revealed that he'll work the match against the champion, Bobby Lashley, under the Demon King alter-ego.
With Balor's price coming in, Lashley has moved out to +400 from +320.
As I've noted in previous updates, I do not intend to dedicate much coverage to the battle royal markets this year. I do plan on keeping an eye on how the favourites are performing against The Field, though.
Braun Strowman - who was +100 yesterday - is once again back up to +110 while The Field has returned to -150 from -140.
In the women's battle royal market, Lacey Evans has dipped from yesterday's +180 into +175. Those looking to oppose her can find 'The Field' at -245, which is up from -260.

Hey David, after watching Raw you still think Rollins wins at Wrestlemania ?
ReplyDeleteTo me, I think Lesnar will retain
I'm currently listening to today's WOR and Meltzer said that last night's angle was meant to have been Lesnar getting the best of Rollins and it was changed last minute in order to not have a weak challenger going into the match.
DeleteRollins promised to win. If Reigns wasn't back, I would have said that for sure means Rollins is winning.
There was also the visual of him holding the title, which - to me - is a sign Lesnar keeps the strap.
I know I'm not giving you a direct answer but last night did make me start doubting Rollins' chances even though I still think there's a possibility he does win.
Put it this way - I have those bets on Lesnar to drop the title at Mania etc so I am trying to find a case for Rollins more so now than I was before last night.
DeleteIs there a show in Saudi Arabia in May ?
ReplyDeleteMeltzer said it's 'in flux' to someone who asked about it the other day. The person asked because The Undertaker is apparently booked for the Saudi show but he's also meant to be on the UK talk tour thing he's lined up for.
DeleteAbraham, in this week's issue of the Observer, Dave Meltzer reports that the Saudi Arabia show appears to be taking place in June rather than May 3rd.
DeleteIt will be interesting to see this match.
ReplyDeleteFrom the beginning, i always had this feeling that one of three babyfaces Rollins, Becky and Kofi won't win the title.
Kofi and Becky to me are damn sure winning. Seth was always doubtful for me and last night's segment made my prediction more stronger.
I'm still not ruling out Ronda from winning it.
DeleteInteresting. Can you explain why Ronda is your pick ?
DeleteI have so many ideas.
Delete1) Travis Browne somehow helps Ronda
2) Stephanie helps her (there were reports that Lynch .vs. Stephanie is a plan for the summer.. so this is where it could happen. Becky mentioned the McMahons probably not liking the thought of her being champ last night)
3) They could have Baszler, Duke and Shafir interfere and this would set up the Horsewomen .vs. Horsewomen. Dave Meltzer wrote this in last week's issue 'The plan is also to come out of this match with a clear direction for next year’s WrestleMania, whether that means Rousey returns for a singles match with Lynch, or Flair vs. Lynch' - what if it's the Horsewomen .vs. Horsewomen thing?
Also - having Ronda win the Smackdown title, you automatically have her tied to both brands for the move to Fox.
(I also have that bet on Ronda to retain and Becky to win the Raw title on the Raw after Mania so that is also clouding my judgement!)
It is very clear and obvious lesnar will win
ReplyDeleteCould you expand on this?
DeleteYa man, cant wait to tune into Raw tonight to watch Brock hold the Universal title.......oh wait
DeleteThere is no way Vince would allow Seth defeat lesnar clean even roman couldn't get d job done at WRESTLEMANIA 34.
ReplyDeleteThat's not 'clear and obvious', I'm afraid.
DeleteYa man, no way Vince would allow Seth defeat lesnar clean especially not in the opening match of Mania 35.....oh wait
DeleteAfter last night's raw, I'm also starting to think Lesnar is retaining, which also pushes me to think Becky is winning.
ReplyDeleteI doubt we will see 3 new champions in Seth, Becky and Kofi all in the same night.
Whatever I know lesnar will win
ReplyDeleteGeez, I can't want for your:
Deletei ToLd YoU sO, i Am So MuCh BeTtEr ThAn YoU aT tHiS
for the next few weeks if Lesnar wins.
Ha, I'm still waiting for the guy who asked if I was embarrassed that I replied 'good luck with that' when he said it was for sure going to be McIntyre versus Cena at Mania to pop back up.
DeleteYa man, whatever lesnar will win, he'll definitely kick out of this third curb sto........oh wait
DeleteI got a feeling that Lesnar will retain at Wrestlemania and Rollins wins in Saudi ( if there is a show in May )
