WrestleMania Backlash is this Saturday, and that means WWE is gearing up for their new season. Blowing off all their WrestleMania feuds so they can clean the slate. That doesn’t mean everything will go as it did at WrestleMania though.
Bobby Lashley v. Omos (with MVP)
Oddsmakers think this one is pretty clear-cut. The WWE is going to back the new big man. Omos, now paired with a manager in MVP who should take him to new heights, is the clear and overwhelming favorite in this match.
Omos is given -333 odds, or an implied 76.9% chance to get revenge for his WrestleMania loss. Meanwhile, Lashley is given +200 odds, or an implied 33.3% chance to once again reign supreme.
Wrestler | Odds | Implied chance |
Omos | -333 | 76.9% |
Bobby Lashley | +200 | 33.3% |
Happy Corbin v. Madcap Moss
This is yet another situation where oddsmakers believe WWE will put over a new young star. After the two broke up shortly after WrestleMania it’s been clear that the company believes in Moss and his future. The odds certainly reflect that.
Moss is given -189 odds, or an implied 65.4% chance to get his first pay-per-view win since coming up to the main roster. Meanwhile, Corbin is given +125 odds, or an implied 44.4% chance to get the win and recover from his loss to McIntyre at WrestleMania.
Wrester | Odds | Implied chance |
Madcap Moss | -189 | 65.4% |
Baron Corbin | +125 | 44.4% |
Edge v. AJ Styles
Oddsmakers believe that this match will put an end to the Edge and Styles feud. After his win at WrestleMania, oddsmakers have Rated-R superstar once again defeating The Phenomenal One.
Edge is given -161 odds, or an implied 61.7% chance to win and end this feud. Meanwhile, Styles is given +120 odds, or an implied 45.5% chance to get a win and even the score.
Wrestler | Odds | Implied chance |
Edge | -161 | 61.7% |
AJ Styles | +120 | 45.5% |
Drew McIntyre and RK-Bro v. The Bloodline
It’s been a long time since anyone in the Bloodline took a loss, especially Roman Reigns, but that’s what oddsmakers expect on Saturday.
Drew McIntyre and RK-Bro are given -189 odds, or an implied 65.4% chance to get the victory to kickoff the feuds that will likely carry the WWE over the next few months. Meanwhile, the Bloodline is given +125 odds, or an implied 44.4% chance to get the win.
Reigns’ last loss by pinfall or submission, even in tag team action, on a televised event was against King Corbin at TLC in 2019. Since then, his only losses have come in the Royal Rumble match or by DQ.
Team | Odds | Implied chance |
Drew McIntyre and RK-Bro | -189 | 65.4% |
The Bloodline | +125 | 44.4% |
Cody Rhodes v. Seth Rollins
Oddsmakers expect this feud to end here. After his not surprising surprise return at WrestleMania, Rhodes defeated Rollins. Oddsmakers expect the same result on Saturday.
Rhodes is given -278 odds, or an implied 73.5% chance to get the victory. Meanwhile, Rollins is given +200 odds, or an implied 33.3% chance to pull off the upset and keep this feud going just a little longer.
Wrestler | Odds | Implied chance |
Cody Rhodes | -278 | 73.5% |
Seth Rollins | +200 | 33.3% |
Smackdown Women’s Championship Match
This is the safest bet all night. Rousey is as big a favorite as one could possibly see ahead of her match against Flair.
Rousey is given-700 odds, or an implied 87.5% chance to win the tile. Meanwhile, Flair is given +360 odds, or an implied 21.7% chance to win the title.
Of course, Rousey was also given -700 odds to win at WrestleMania and was subject to the biggest upset of the night. So, while Rousey is the massive favorite here, don’t discount Vince McMahon’s ability to throw a curveball.
Wrestler | Odds | Implied chance |
Ronda Rousey | -700 | 87.5% |
Charlotte Flair | +360 | 21.7% |
