Pro Wrestling Betting Odds: WWE ‘Clash of Champions’

WWE is reintroducing Clash of Champions in 2019 after a year off. It is the first dual-brand event of its name and the first pay-per-view event since last month’s SummerSlam. Every match will have a belt on the line, with one exception. Here are odds and picks for the matches available on BetOnline.

Roman Reigns -600 vs Rowan +350 in a No DQ match

The only non-title match is also perhaps the easiest call. Not only is Roman Reigns a much bigger name than Erick Rowan, but the treatment he’s getting right now makes him almost invincible. Reigns, a leukemia survivor, has appeared in TV spots and live segments with children fighting cancer in support of the WWE-backed charity Connor’s Cure.

So, yeah, Reigns is the biggest favorite on the card for a reason. It’s almost unthinkable that WWE would book him to lose after these types of appearances. If you must bet this match, put your money on Reigns.

Drew Gulak (c) -140 vs Humberto Carrillo +125 vs Lince Doradoo +500 for the Cruiserweight Championship

Carrillo is a decent underdog bet considering this is his second shot at the belt, but Gulak has a better chance of making it to the main roster. Conventional wisdom is Gulak will hold the Cruiserweight Championship for a while.

Seth Rollins & Braun Strowman (c) +140 vs Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode -180 for the Raw Tag Team Championship

Not only are Rollins and Strowman facing each other for the Universal Championship later in the night, but rumor has it Ziggler and Roode are in line for a push. We’ll say Ziggler and Roode become the new champions, possibly due to interference from AJ Styles and The O.C.

The New Day (c) -160 vs The Revival +120 for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship

The Revival’s contracts expire in April and they do not appear inclined to sign a new deal. If that happens, it’s more than likely they’re part of All Elite Wrestling by this time next year. WWE won’t push a tag team they suspect will be a future rival. The New Day retain their belts.

Shinsuke Nakamura (c) -250 vs The Miz +170 for the Intercontinental Championship

The Miz is in his current babyface iteration isn’t quite as strong as his heel character. He has a long history of winning with dirty tactics but has given those up over the past several months. Nakamura, on the other hand, is embracing them with the recruitment of Sami Zayn as an associate. Unless we see some sort of double turn, Nakamura is likely to win one way or another.

Kofi Kingston (c) -200 vs Randy Orton +150 for the WWE Championship

Kingston and Orton fought to a draw at SummerSlam and this one could also end with shenanigans considering Kofi and Orton’s allegiances to the New Day and Revival, respectively. As such, they might face each other again next month at Hell in a Cell, where their cohorts presumably won’t be able to interfere.

Orton doesn’t tend to go very long without some sort of title reign and this would be a good time for him to start another one. After all, he can always drop the belt to Kofi in next month’s rematch. As an underdog, Orton is a better bet.

Bayley (c) -140 vs Charlotte Flair +100 for the SmackDown Women’s Championship

When Bayley and Sasha Banks faced Becky Lynch and Charlotte on Raw, it was Charlotte pinning Bayley for the win. Whenever wrestlers face each other in some capacity on the go-home show before a pay-per-view, it’s safe to assume the opposite of what happens on the go-home show will happen on the pay-per-view. This isn’t true 100 percent of the time, but it happens more often than not. Plus, Bayley’s recent flirtation with heel status makes it more likely she earns some heat by beating Charlotte in her hometown of — wait for it — Charlotte. Bet on Bayley continuing her title reign.

Becky Lynch (c) -120 vs Sasha Banks -120 for the Raw Women’s Championship

The Man still has one of the titles she won in the main event of WrestleMania back in April. She is in the middle of the third-longest reign in the title’s history, trailing Ronda Rousey (232 days) and Alexa Bliss (223 days). In other words, most Raw Women’s title reigns end around this time. 

On top of that, Sasha Banks returned a month ago after a four-month hiatus during which rumors swirled that she would quit WWE. She has not held a solo title since August of 2017. It would make sense for WWE to try to make The Boss happy, especially with a rising, legit contender in AEW. Go with Banks.

Seth Rollins (c) -280 vs Braun Strowman +185 for the WWE Universal Championship

Strowman’s title shot kind of came out of nowhere and Rollins just regained his title from Brock Lesnar last month at SummerSlam. It would be a little odd for Rollins to lose his title so quickly after such a major triumph. There are also rumors that Rollins will face Bray Wyatt next month at Hell in a Cell and Wyatt is suspiciously absent from the Clash of Champions card. We’ll probably see him at some point in this match.

Though it’s unlikely Rollins loses his belt, he could still lose the match via disqualification depending on who the referee sees Wyatt attack first. If that’s Strowman, Rollins loses by DQ but retains the title. Considering the odds, bet on Strowman winning but not becoming champion.
