WWE Extreme Rules Results

Pre show:

Kalisto vs Apollo Crews w/ Titus O’neil – I really enjoyed this match. Lots of high flying lucha action from Kalisto, and lots of power moves by Crews. These two guys work well off each others very different wrestling styles. This match has lots of action, and ends after Titus O’neil accidentally distracts Crews with advice and Kalisto hits the Salida Del Sol for the win.

Main Card:

Intercontinental Championship Match: If Ambrose gets DQ’d he loses the Title – The Miz vs Dean Abrose(c) – Basically this match is gonna be an attempted screw job. Maryse is in wrestling gear at ringside. So that says something. Miz tries to get Ambrose caught with the chair, is inciting him to beat and choke him.  A bit of wrestling happens… go figure… I’m imagining a “This is Boring” chant in my head. I’m way less interested in this match then I thought I’d be. I am also writing this from my cell so excuse any mistakes. Ok match has gotten a bit better since Ambrose dropped a elbow off the top. Still way less interesting than I’d expect from these guys. Abrose hurts his leg, Miz takes advantage. Gets dean in a figure 4. Ambrose gets the ropes but os pretty beat after, but still has more. During the fray Miz pulls a turnbuckle cover off. Ambrose doesnt fall gor it. More back and forth. Ambrose geta Miz in the figure 4. Miz gets the ropes. Maryse slaps Miz and official sends Maryse to the locker room. Miz slams Ambrose into the ref, official was still distracted by Maryse. Miz hits Skullcrusher thing for the win. Your new Intercontinental Champion: The Miz.

Backstage Interview with Bayley talking about watching some Kendo stick matches, and saw Wonder Woman and shes ready to get the Womens Championship Back.

Noam Dar and Alicia Fox vs Rich Swann and Sasha Banks: The guys start put but then the girls tag in and get a good chunk of time in the start of match but dont do much?? Guys tag back in, beat each other up. Alicia Fox tries to get involved,  anf Banks attacks her tossing her out of the ring. Everyones out, Banks goes to the top to get Fox Dar tries to move Fox and gets tackled by Banks instead. Swann drags him back to the ring to give him another move from the top for good measure, Swann pins Dar for the win. Swann and Banks dance in the ring.

Elias Sampson is in the ring, with a guitar and a keffiteh asking who wants tp rock with him… people don’t seem to want to rock with him. He sings about how gross Balitmore is gross to the tune of hotel California or something. Its really weird. Thanks Elias.  Booker T thinks he’s good, now im totally sold.

RAW Women’s Championship: Kendo Stick on a Pole Match – Bayley vs Alexa Bliss(c) – Bliss taunts Bayley right from the start. Alexa is first to go for the Kendo stick but Bayley gets the stick but drops it and both woman fall outside. Bayley blocks Alrxa from the stick then gives her a suplex on the groubd outside. Bayley has the kendo stick,  Alexa ran away, Bayley took too much time and Alexa kicks the kendo stick outta her hands and then beats Bayley with it. BAayley does a Belly to Bayley on Alexa, more bavk and forth, Alexa gets the stick again beats Bayley, and Alexa retains her title. Lesson: don’t hesitate when ypu have a kendo stick.

RAW Tag Team Championship Match: Steel Cage Match, both members must escape the cage – Cesaro and Sheamus vs The Hardy Boyz (c) – Cersaro and Sheamus have some sweet black kilts and matching jackets. The cage is open at the top so its pretty ridiculous. No nm pinfalls or submissions just both members have to escape. The Hardys are gicing a beating to Sheamus and Cesaro, who clearly have less cahe match experience.  Hardys try to escape, but thier opponents pull them back in. Matt Hardy gets to the top of the cage, Cesaro goes after him and hands him off to Sheamus for a standing senton. Cesaro and Sheamus are now in control, beating up the Hardys for thier chance at escape. Jeff fights back, climbs the cage, Sheamus pulls him down. More back and forth, all men are down. Hardys climb first but Sheamus and Cesaro follow, all men at the top of the cage. Jeff makes it out, its now 2 on one, but Matt takes both men down momentarily. Matt scales the cage, Ceasaro and Sheamus are dragging him back into the ring and he gets a double Razors Edge. Jeff Hardy is trying to get back in, but Cesaro slams the cage door on his face. Sheamus tries the door but Matt gets him in a Twist of Fate. Matt then pulls Ceasaro down, but Cesaro gets up and pulls him down and C&S give Maty the White Noise. Jeff gets back in and does the Whisper in the Wind from the top of the cage. Race to the outside of the cage, Ceasaro and Sheamus for the win and the Tag Titles! Yaaaaaaay!

WWE Cruiserweight Championship Match: Submission Match – Austin Aries vs Neville (c) – This match is too much.. plus I rather watch than write… The match was awesome. Neville retains his title. 205Live matches are way better than RAW matches IMO.

Fatal 5 way for #1 contender for Universal Championship Match against Bork Lesner – Bray Wyatt vs Seth Rollins vs Samoa Joe vs Roman Reigns vs Finn Baylor – Joe and Rollings and Wyatt and Balor start off, leaving Reigns standing alone. This Match is way too much to follow to try to write about. Results when it happens… the match was nuts witb Joe and Wyatt teaming up like a wrecking crew. All sorts of chair shots and high spots and even a trip through the barricaide. Samoa Joe wins by Submission. That means we have to watch him wrestle Lesner. Sounds painful. To watch.

Overall I thought this PPV was meh. The last two matches were the best. My MOTN was Neville and Aries.

Next PPV is Money in the Bank followed by Great Balls of Fire.

Smart Money Odds Project Heavy Favorites for WWE Extreme Rules

The following odds are from 5Dimes and represent the Global Market. Currently Mastercard, American Express and Bitcoins are being accepted for deposits. Bets can be made for as low as 50 cent although there is never an obligation to place a wager or make a deposit to view and follow the ever changing odds. Visit 5Dimes by clicking here.

The smart money is in for WWE Extreme Rules and once again Samoa Joe is favored at -900 to win the Fatal Five Way. Seth Rollins overtook Joe in the odds as the favorite but Samoa Joe has resettled as the odds on favorite. Rollins is still more likely to win compared to anyone except Joe however.

Dean Ambrose is projected to lose the Intercontinental Championship match with the “Lunatic Fringe” defending against The Miz who is favored at -4800. Alexa Bliss’ odds of retaining the Raw Womens’ Championship have widened significantly  to -2300. Cesaro and Sheamus are projected to win the Raw Tag Team Championships against Matt and Jeff Hardy in a Steel Cage Match with odds of -16000, making them the most favored competitors of the entire PPV.

Neville is also heavily favored to once again retain the Cruiserweight Championship against Austin Aries at -7500. The preshow match projects the team of Rich Swann and Sasha Banks at -6000.

A simple explanation of how these odds are interpreted is that the minus sign indicates the favorite and the plus sign is for the underdog. So it would take a $16000 bet on Sheamus and Cesaro to win only $100 as they are heavy favorites but a successful $100 on the Hardy Boys would win $4000 as they are huge underdogs according to the current odds.

Universal Championship #1 Contenders Match
Samoa Joe -900
Seth Rollins +500
Finn Balor +3500
Bray Wyatt +5000
Roman Reigns +7500
Cruiserweight Championship
Neville(c) -7500

Which WWE Extreme Rules Match Has The Best Odds of Getting the Highest Star Ratings From Dave Meltzer?

 

The following odds are from Grosvenor Casinos, a sports book that operates in the UK. They offer wagering to only a limited number of countries although it can be followed anywhere in the world. Worldwide wagering will be available by 5Dimes very soon and to be notified please join our e-mail list at the bottom of this article.

It seems bizarre that you can actually place bets on what at first glance is simply one man’s opinion on WWE matches, but this has become a reality in 2017. That man is Dave Meltzer, founder of the Wrestling Observer and the more highfalutin wrestling fans strongly value his opinion. Meltzer developed a “star rating” system of ranking pro wrestling matches around the world, similar to how Hollywood films are ranked. Typically, these ratings fall into the territory on 0-5 stars, although the when feeling mischievous, Dave has been known to give matches negative stars. At least once he even awarded an extra star, six stars total, to a recent NJPW match between Will Osprey and Ricochet. This is heavy praise, as Dave rarely will rank a match as being five stars. It takes a masterpiece in the ring to earn Meltzer’s willingness to be less stingy with the stars.

The Sunday’s Extreme Rules PPV has several options for prop bets. These are from a UK sports book, so only a limited number on countries can take advantage of these wagers, however anyone can follow these in real time and see how they panned out after Dave furnishes the star ratings to the public who wait in anticipation of them following the event.

The first prop bet offered is whether there will actually be a five star match awarded by Dave for any match. Because Dave doesn’t part with that many stars very often, the odds are strongly against this happening. The odds of a five star match is currently +1500, which is a probability of 6.25%. Not very good chances at all. If someone were to win a $100 bet here they would win $1500.

As for the individual matches, bets are being taken on what match would get the highest rating. The main event is actually the favorite here at -200, meaning it would take a $200 bet to win $100. This will be a Fatal Five Way for the right to face Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Championship. It will most likely be given the most time and historically Meltzer is more likely to give a high rating on longer matches. Also this match has Seth Rollins, Samoa Joe and Finn Balor, all respected performers to the highfalutin tastes of Dave his followers. Roman Reigns, who this aforementioned highfalutin crowd generally loathes, has in the past been able to achieve the highest ranked matches on PPVs when in the ring with respected wrestlers.

The next most likely match to get the most stars is Neville vs Austin Aries for the Cruiserweight Championship at +125. This is about right as the two have had some great matches together since Wrestlemania 33. The median pick would be the Tag Team championship Match with The Hardys defending against Cesaro and Sheamus and this match is at +350.

The IC Championship match between Dean Ambrose and The Miz is at +800 and could end up being exceptional. These two have had great matches on the Smackdown brand before they were both moved to RAW and the “title changes hands on a DQ” element could foster some epic storytelling.

The match least likely to get the most stars is the RAW Women’s Championship match at +1000. Alexa Bliss defends against Bayley in a “Kendo Stick on a Pole Match” so perhaps the gimmick of the match is why this is not expected to be a highly rated match.

The bet will be graded after the star ratings are posted by Meltzer in his newsletter the week after the Extreme Rules.

Extreme Rules Predictions!

This weekend we have another PPV coming up, this one is Monday Night RAW branded, “Extreme Rules”, so as always I will give you my predictions as to who will win!

Rich Swann & Sasha Banks vs. Noam Dar & Alicia Fox (Mixed Tag Team Match) – The only way Dar and Fox are going to win is if they cheat, I give it to Swann and Banks.

WWE Cruiserweight Champion Neville vs. Austin Aries (Submission Match) – Austin Aries will win with his vegan super powers!

Raw Tag Team Champions The Hardy Boyz vs. Cesaro & Sheamus – Steel Cage Match – As much as I love the Hardy Boyz, watching them last night shows just how beat up they really are, and the steel cage is unforgiving. I give this to Cesaro & Shaeamus.

Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley (Kendo Stick on a Pole Match) – Bayley has worked harder to prove herself than half the women in WWE today. Alexa Bliss is a cheating little toad, and I hope she gets an ass beating with that Kendo stick. I give this to Bayley, just for her reach advantage alone.

Intercontinental Champion Dean Ambrose vs. The Miz (if Ambrose is disqualified, he will lose the Intercontinental Title) – Dean Ambrose needs to watch his back, as Maryse will go out of her way to try to help her hubby the Miz, gain the IC Title. I am going to have to go with The Miz, as I have a feeling he is going to go above and beyond to get Ambrose DQ’d.

Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. Finn Bálor vs. Bray Wyatt vs. Samoa Joe – Extreme Rules Fatal 5-Way Universal Title No. 1 Contender’s Match – This match is going to be WILD! All of these men want a shot at Brock Lesner, who has not been seen since Wrestlemania, but who will get a shot at the Universal Championship? A few weeks back Bálor said it was his goal to get the title back. Will he be able to hold his own against these 4 opponents, who all also want this title shot for themselves? After watching Samoa Joe steal his win on RAW, who knows what may happen! I am going with Bálor, because I have have some faith in him to use his brains to come out victorious!
