Right now, The Rock leads the pack with 2/1 odds even though he has not had a match with the company since WrestleMania 32, a very quick victory over Erick Rowan.

Other notable names included in the betting odds are Daniel Bryan (6/1), Seth Rollins (8/1), Braun Strowman (9/1), Finn Balor (12/1), John Cena (12/1) and current Universal Champion Roman Reigns (12/1).
