How Kambi Settled Its WWE TLC 2020 Observer Markets

I'm a little late with an update, but here's how Kambi settled its Wrestling Observer Newsletter star ratings markets for the WWE Tables, Ladders and Chairs 2020 PPV from December 20th.

WWE TLC 2020 - Observer Star Ratings Results

As you can see, the bookmakers had over/under markets for most of the matches that took place on the night. Two of which were voided.

The opening match of the main card saw The Miz cash in his Money in the Bank title contract. This forced the bout to become a triple threat match and - per Kambi's rules - all bets would have been graded as void due to the new man having been added to the contest.

The main event - which saw Randy Orton beat The Fiend in a Firefly Inferno Match - was not given a star rating because the bout was edited. Dave Meltzer noted in his review that it wouldn't have been fair to rate the contest, but - if he had - it wouldn't have scored highly.

Miz's insertion into the WWE Championship match also resulted in Kambi having to make all bets on a head-to-head invalid.

The market had both of the Tables, Ladders and Chairs matches compete against each other. Drew McIntyre .vs. AJ Styles (WWE Championship) was a 17/20 favourite when the market was first priced up. By Sunday, the selection with the shortest odds was 'Same Star Rating' which had lowered from 7/4 into 8/5.

I had a small wager on 'Same Star Rating', but had my wager settled as void due to the cash-in potentially affecting the rating of the WWE Championship match.
