Lashley Becomes US Championship Second-Favourite

Bobby Lashley has finally become a second-favourite to win the triple threat match for the WWE US Championship at tonight's Backlash '23 event in a market available from BetOnline.

As I've pointed out in posts following both nights of the WWE's draft, tonight's match technically became a two-horse race after the titleholder - Austin Theory - and Lashley were drafted to Smackdown leaving the third man in - Bronson Reed - being picked to represent Raw.

On top of that, Gunther is moving to the red brand and is bringing the WWE Intercontinental Championship with him. 

With those two scenarios played out, Reed has kind of become a pointless part of this story if you look at the market from a betting perspective.

Lashley's odds have been reduced into +500 from +700 with Reed now moving out to +800 from +500. Theory has stayed at -2,000.


The rest of BetOnline's markets for tonight's show remain as they were. Here are all of the odds as of 10PM BST.

Note: I notice that I still have Omos written as Off The Board. This is an error on my part. He's +500.
