Markets, for some of the matches announced for WrestleMania 38, have been published by Kambi.
The title versus title match - which will see WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar, take on WWE Universal Champion - Roman Reigns - has the former a 3/4 favourite over the 19/20 for Reigns.
I have backed Roman Reigns to win this match.
This is evidently regarded as the biggest bout WWE can currently offer at present. The job, for the next five to six weeks, will be to draw in a lot of new eyeballs. The result has to go the way of the top full-time guy in the business.
Sure, there may have been a case for Lesnar to avenge the loss from last October's WWE Crown Jewel, but - now that it's a battle between the premier champions - I feel Reigns has to go over.
If the plan is for The Rock to face Reigns anytime in the future whether that be in Hollywood for next year's WrestleMania, or even this year at SummerSlam (I have a long-shot idea it could happen at SummerSlam considering that Tennessee is where Dwayne Johnson first wrestled, so it could be fitting to have his last, or one of his last matches, in the State), Reigns has to win against Lesnar.
A Wrestling Observer star rating over/under market has been created for this match. The line is currently set at four stars.
On the topic of Observer star ratings markets, there is an interesting change to the one for Charlotte Flair's WWE Smackdown Women's Championship defence against Ronda Rousey.
The Reigns .vs. Lesnar market offers the regular '4 Stars or More' or 'Under 4 Stars' selections. The wording of Flair versus Rousey market is 'Over 4 Stars' or 'Under 4 Stars'. Therefore, should the ladies match fall on four stars exactly, the market would be voided.
As for the match winner market - Kambi has Rousey a 1/5 favourite. A decision which favours the champion will pay out at 3/1.
The third market is for the WWE Raw Women's Championship match between Becky Lynch and her challenger, Bianca Belair.
Belair is 11/25 to get her win back after the SummerSlam loss to Lynch. 8/5 is the offer for those looking to back the titleholder.
Four stars is also the line for Lynch .vs. Belair. It has the '4 Stars or More' versus 'Under 4 Stars' wordings as its selections.
The WrestleMania markets are just some of the new markets that have been published this week. Customers can also find markets for the matches for AEW Revolution 2022, which is scheduled to take place a week from Sunday.
