Global bookmakers are united over who will leave the United Center victorious at WWE Elimination Chamber. Cody Rhodes is the clear favourite to win the men’s WWE Elimination Chamber match on Saturday.
Rhodes has an implied probability of winning of 67%, according to Oddschecker. DuelBits rates Rhodes’ chances of winning at slightly longer odds, with a 50% implied probability. Rhodes being identified as the clear favourite reflects the problem with WWE.
The winner will face WWE Undisputed Champion Drew McIntyre at WWE WrestleMania 42. Rhodes is the only person in the match who could realistically challenge at such a prestigious event.
Randy Orton is 11/4 to win. LA Knight comes in as the third favourite at 4/1. Je’Von Evans and Trick Williams have received good pushes since debuting on the main roster. But their odds of 12/1 and 14/1, respectively, reflect the fact that the match has too many participants who aren’t credible winners. Jey Uso has the longest odds of 16/1.
DuelBits market analysis has identified a greater chance of a botched pyro or an on-air firing by Triple H than either Evans, Williams, or Uso winning.
Odds Checker Spokesman, Chris Rogers, said: Excitement is building ahead of Saturday’s WWE Elimination Chamber. Cody Rhodes is the heavy favourite in a stacked field at 1/2.
WWE Raw will also see a major championship match the Monday following WWE Elimination Chamber.
Things are less predictable in the women’s WWE Elimination Chamber match. Tiffany Stratton has emerged as the favourite to win. But Stratton was also tipped to win the WWE Royal Rumble and that didn’t come to fruition.
Stratton has an implied win probability of 40%, according to Oddschecker. Raquel Rodriguez is hot on her heels with 29%. Rhea Ripley and Alexa Bliss both have an implied win probability of 25%. This shows that things are more unpredictable and interesting in the women’s chamber match.
Kiana James shocked many when she beat Charlotte Flair and Nia Jax to qualify for the match. Her implied win probability of 5% clearly identifies her as the outsider.
The winner will face WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill at WWE WrestleMania.
Meanwhile, former WWE Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey will return to in-cage action when she faces Gina Carano live on Netflix.
