Latest Royal Rumble odds point to surprising new favorites

So there might a world where Cain Velasquez and Ronda Rousey win their respective Royal Rumble matches on Sunday.

What a world that would be. WWE wouldn’t do that, right?

With the kickoff to WrestleMania season only a few days away, the online betting community has taken an interest in WWE’s Sunday night pay-per-view. Currently the card stands at six matches and two Rumble matches.

On the men’s side the favorites features names like Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, Drew McIntyre, and then things go off the rails. The next three favorites are Velasquez, CM Punk, and Edge.

For the women it’s all about Horsewomen. Shayna Baszler, Charlotte Flair, and Sasha Banks occupy the top three betting favorites, while Rousey makes a surprise appearance at number four.
