Becky Lynch and Roman Reigns have both been confirmed as the cover stars for the WWE 2K20 game that will be released later this year.
This news will result in there being a dead-heat in a Sky Bet market - that was created last year - which allowed customers to gamble on the star, or in this case - stars, who made the cover of the 2020 edition of the game.
The market was first installed on July 1st 2018 with Ronda Rousey a 2/1. As for Lynch and Reigns - they were 33/1 and 12/1 respectively.
You'll see - in the table above - that I made monthly notes of the market. By December, Lynch's odds began to fall. This coincided with her getting hot months earlier and beginning a journey to the main event of WrestleMania 35.
Reigns, on the other hand, rose to 20/1 in August but was then moved to 5/1 around the time he took a leave of absence from WWE to fight leukaemia. Upon his return, he was reinserted into the market and fell from 20s into 8/1 between March and April.
The last time I saw the market was on May 10th. At the time, Lynch was a 1/6 favourite. Reigns was in second at odds of 7/2.
The opening favourite - Ronda Rousey - was 20/1 by then.
You can view all of the selections - and the prices I was able to follow - in the table below.
