While most of you think the sport is a joke and the odds are massive, massive chalk typically prevails. So I use these in parlays to knock off the juice.
I will say this: Of late the WWE has been pulling off some massive swerves with major longshots hitting so if you want to try your luck, there is no better place to hit a >=+500 ML.
Main Event
Lesnar -2750
Vs.
Golderberg +1250
Prediction: There is zero chance Goldberg wins and retains the title. He beat Lesnar at Survivor Series in about 15 seconds. Then he eliminated Lesnar from the Royal Rumble like he was a piece of trash.
The WWE has already shi* on the investment they've made in Brock over all these years and going down 3 straight would be suicide for the Fed (not like they didn't already commit it).
Lesnar -2750 wins.
Main-Event lead-in
Undertaker +330
vs.
Roman Reigns -490
These are the longest odds in the history of Taker's WM match participation against him.
He's 23-1...and a +330 underdog. That's pretty amazing value.
EXCEPT for predetermined matches.
The bottom line is that he's 52 and recently had hip surgery.
From a dedicate insider from his last match:
“So Undertaker, he was hurting real bad last night,” Meltzer said, according to Comicbook.com. “I mean you could look at him and you could see that he wasn’t in shape, and you know… it’s the hip…I mean there’s nothing else to really say about it…But even that when he was backstage he was hurting a lot.”
Did anyone see Reigns spear him on Raw? He looked like dead weight. Went down in a heap. I believe Raw didn't let him leave the ring because he may have limped back.
The ONE problem with this result:
The fans will go batshi* crazy if Reigns wins. Taker is beloved the world over and Reigns is similarly reviled.
That's why there is actually value on the dog here especially with the world saying this may be Taker's last match (the WWE loves to swerve the public, remember).
Still if Reigns loses, where the hell does he go but down. Perhaps interference by Strowman wins it for Reigns or perhaps Strowman comes down to go after Taker and accidently nails Reigns so Reigns doesn't go down clean.
Prediction: I need to do some more research on this match to ensure Reigns goes over. Reigns for now but that may change.
More matches to come!
Stay tuned fans!
Let's get the old crew in here. Kapono Sparky Jarrett etc.
