I didn't know WWE betting was a thing, does anyone here bet on Vegas underdogs for scripted programming?

If you follow it, the Vegas underdogs will commonly become heavy favorites within the last hour or so before a show when all the "smart" money comes in. This is also the reason that they put a limit on how much you can bet.

The Women's match actually being inside HiaC is a big deal and worthy of scoopage you doofuses. But don't let context get in the way of another rovert circlejerk I guess.

The Cruiserweights on SD makes a ton of sense since they're taping that 205 show with them anyway. Also it would make me happy because I wouldn't have to try and find the match highlights anymore as I will have just watched the show they are on.

At this point I imagine Nakamura's getting a rematch and Hero isn't. So it's more like 100/0.

50/50 is referring to the fact that he won one match and lost one match. Or another way to say it would be he won 50 percent of his matches and lost 50 percent. 50/50, if you wheeeeeellll.

Why did Sasha win just there?

She pinned Nia's shoulders to the mat long enough for the ref to count to three. It's the general basis behind most victories in professional wrestling, though you can also win by submission, countout (your opponent being outside the ring long enough for the referee to reach a ten count), disqualification, and, rarely, knockout.

the biggest surprise to me on there is Enzo and Cass favored to win, but i havent been watching RAW, so maybe they're getting pushed harder than I know about?

edit: the other biggest surprise is that no one has a minus for the Smackdown Women's Title. Naomi is the 'favorite' but still has a +100 :confused:

It's because she's not an overwhelming enough favorite. Betting odds aren't zero sum.

Except last year when we swore they would change from being uniformly the wrong outcome and not a single one did.

Reading back through the spoilers thread after WM last year was incredible.

That Mojo win was weird, and obviously Gronk fueled. Rovert do you know how last minute that was? Especially considering how quickly security rushed to cut off Gronk like he was actually a fan jumping the barricade before the refs intervened and got them to back off.
