2019 Royal Rumble Betting Odds

Betwrestling.com has released the following in regards to 2019 Royal Rumble odds:

Oddsmakers wasted no time setting the odds for next year’s Royal Rumble match, despite it being almost one year away. 120 choices have been listed, and the best odds are property of Braun Strowman, who had a breakout year and is expected to be built up even further leading into 2019.

Braun’s odds should be taken with a grain of salt, as there have been no reports that the WWE has solidified plans for who will pick up a Rumble victory next year. For what it’s worth, Roman Reigns was favored by sports books throughout 2017 to win the last Rumble and ended up flipping in the weeks leading to the match in favor of Shinsuke Nakamura, the eventual winner.

Perennial contender, Roman Reigns is the next most favored at +350 as he is usually a serious candidate to win the Rumble. Brock Lesnar, John Cena and AJ Styles are all individually favored at +600 and tied for third most favored.
Of the entire list, some possible winners are more interesting than others, like Bobby Lashley , who has relatively healthy odds of +1200. Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon, all who are unlikely to compete in the match, have odds of +4000. Rob Gronkowski, who shares mutual interest with WWE in coming to the promotion, has odds of +10000 to win. Shaquille O’Neal has the same odds as Gronk. Finally, Donald Trump and for some reason Piers Morgan have odds of +40000, meaning a successful $100 bet on either of them would generate $40,000, because it’s astronomically unlikely.

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
Rush: 0-1, 0 points
Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

Here are your Blue League standings!

Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
