Reigns and Rock Become Mania Favourites

Roman Reigns and The Rock have become favourites to beat Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania XL.

In a post published yesterday, I noted that the BetOnline staff had installed a market for the main event of night one of this year's Mania. I pointed out my surprise that the firm had opted to place Reigns and The Rock as underdogs considering the match's stipulations which would put Cody Rhodes at a disadvantage for his title shot against Roman Reigns the following evening should The Bloodline members win the tag contest.

As of the time of writing, Reigns and The Rock are now at -140. That's down from yesterday's +200. Their opponents have been moved up from -300 to +100.

There has also been an adjustment made to the aforementioned match between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes.

As you can see below, the odds for a Rhodes victory has fallen back into -700 with Reigns moving out from the previous price of +350 to +400.

On Friday, it was established that - should Rhodes fail to beat Reigns on Sunday April 7th - he will no longer be able to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. 

I think that's a cool wrinkle to the storyline considering Rhodes lost to a similar stipulation in AEW. However, I cannot see history repeating itself with this title challenge.
