A market, allowing punters to gamble on which match will receive the most stars in Meltzer's review of the event, was opened a couple of days ago. At the time, Kambi's oddsmakers were offering Omega versus Christian Cage (referred to as 'AEW World Championship') at a price of 4/1. It was third behind 'AEW Tag Team Championship' (Young Bucks .vs. Lucha Bros.) and 'CM Punk .vs. Darby Allin' which were 4/6 favourite and 9/4 respectively.
As of this morning, the AEW World Title match has been cut from the aforementioned 4/1 and is now a 17/10 second-favourite.
Remaining a favourite, the option to gamble on the Bucks and Lucha Brothers earning the most stars in the review has moved out to 4/5 while the previous second-favourite has leapt out to 4/1.
A selection which will cover 'Any Unlisted Match' to be the highest rated has been moved to 7s from 6/1.
The interest in Omega .vs. Cage to receive the most stars has also impacted other markets that are available for tomorrow's PPV.
In one, the title match was up against Punk versus Allin in a head-to-head. Both selections were EVS when the market was initially priced up. However, the odds for 'AEW World Championship' have now been lowered into 7/10.
As a result - the bookmakers are now offering the Punk versus Allin selection at 13/10 while the 'Same Star Rating' - which will win if both bouts scores the same amount of stars - has increased to 43/20 from 2/1.
The star ratings lines for both matches have a difference of a quarter of a star with Punk versus Allin's line at 4.75 to the AEW World Championship contest's 4.5. Looking at both markets, you will notice that there appears to be interest in Omega and Christian getting four-and-a-half stars or higher and the Punk versus Allin clash doing lower than its line.
You'll notice above that, in the Omega versus Christian Cage market, the price for '4.5 Stars or More' was lowered into 11/25 - from 11/20 - sometime within the last few hours while the Under has increased from 5/4 to 8/5. In the table below, you'll see that the 'Under 4.75 Stars' offering has declined from 8/13 into 2/5 while the option to bet on Punk and Allin receiving four-and-three-quarters or higher has drifted from 23/20 to 7/4.
With a line of 4.75 Stars, the option to wager on the Young Bucks and Lucha Bros' cage match to receive '4.75 Stars Or More' has been snipped from 1/2 into 2/5 while the option to gamble on the contest to do under its line has been placed at 7/4 from 7/5.
A prop market - which asks customers whether or not there will be a match graded five stars or above - has been tweaked with 'Yes' lowered from 13/10 into 5/4 while 'No' has been kept as an 11/20 favourite.
In the current issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer - who will be at the show live - noted that the edition of the publication which will have his All Out 2021 review will be released later than usual.
