What Nightmares Await in Bray Wyatt’s “House of Horrors” Match at WWE Payback?,

New Details Teased About House of Horror Match

WWE sent out a survey to the WWE Fan Council asking what the “House of Horrors” match for the WWE Championship between Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt at Payback should be. There was some criticism towards the WWE for booking a match and not having a plan in place for what that match will entail. The survey was actually a checklist of the following items. This looks to be an experimental match that could be a big hit or a total dud.

  • Cage
  • Darkness
  • FireWWE Network Bray 300x250
  • Pitch Forks
  • “Sheeple”
  • Mirrors
  • Projected images
  • Fog
  • A match set outside the arena
  • Creepy/scary
  • Music
  • Other
  • Nothing different
  • Chainsaws
  • Bugs
  • Masks
  • Snakes
  • Costumes
  • Axes
  • Tables
  • Chairs
  • Chains
  • Fire
  • Kendo Sticks
  • Would prefer no weapons or objects
  • Other

Speaking of the “House of Horrors” Match, the obvious reason why this was moved to Raw branded Payback is because Brock Lesnar will not be on that event and therefore the Universal Championship would not be defended. This will be the first time since the brand split that the WWE Championship is defended on a Raw branded PPV.

WWE Payback Matches

Other matches for WWE Payback on the WWE Network have been announced with more matches to be added as we approach March 30.

United States Championship

Kevin Owens(c) vs Chris Jericho

Raw Tag Team Championship

The Hardy Boyz(c) vs Cesaro & Sheamus

Cruiserweight Championship

Neville (c) vs Austin Aries

Another match likely for is Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman to capitalize off the brutal attack that saw Strowman throw Reigns around backstage, push him off a loading dock and then push over an ambulance with Reigns inside. Roman literally will be after Payback.

Now that Seth Rollins finished of Triple H at Wrestlemania 33, expect him to move on to a match with Samoa Joe at Payback. This one could steal the show if the match end up being booked.

Off the Top Rope of Billy Reil’s Mind – Musings on Wrestlemania Week 2017

Some of us get lost in the moment and forget just how influential this website has become. With that being said, I, Billy Reil, have been dealing with some health issues; I may have more powers than initially thought. Besides being “BulletPoof” it appears that I have successfully defeated the Cellulitus and for now the complications of diabetesroste with the help of my team of doctors. From this day to beyond, I will be contributing to my brainchild, Betwrestling.com as we zoom past Wrestlemania season and head towards ‘Payback’. ‘Payback’ is looking to be a great show as Raw and Smackdown bolstered their rosters recently with the return of Kurt Angle, The Brothers Hardy, The Revival and main event superstar Finn Balor.

As covered by Betwrestling throughout Wrestlemania weekend, There was a slew of Pro-Wrestling Cards throughout the Orlando/Kissimmee area as fans were treated to see the best performers in the entire world giving their all in hopes to have the right pair of eyes looking at them in the squared circle. We would love to read about your experiences, what matches were your favorite, and what you think about not only about the WWE , but Bet Wrestling as well. Do you like our format ? What would you like more of ? These are questions that we hope will enhance not only our page but your experience.

Raw started out with one of the most impressive promos of all time and I mean that wholeheartedly. The style of this promo by Roman Reigns reaked of Paul Heyman; which is not a bad thing. Mr Heyman has always had his pulse on the trigger of what fans want and I was really impressed that WWE creative had the foresight to guess that the fans would be this rabid in regards to how they treated Roman Reigns. While Chris Jericho did something similar a few years back, this was done better. Roman’s facials told the story, so the 5 words that were said certainly did the job intended. In this day and age Heel turns are done so often that most of them lose their luster. Roman did not turn heel, in fact he’s been heel, but its been done in such a smart way that the fans have no clue and can’t comprehend or wrap their heads around it.

Jim Ross’s new contract has him scheduled to work 30-40 shows this year, it is the first time in the history of the wrestling business that someone has worked for 2 major companies at the same time. The chess match between WWE and New Japan Pro Wrestling is heating up folks, and we could see some major moves in the coming months. To me this is 1984 all over again, as WWE is trying to eliminate all competition. The ITV deal in Europe will be a major factor in how WWE conducts their overseas business. ITV reaches many more homes than the WWE Network, so the prospect of international growth for the WWE is at a fever pitch.

Wrestlemania Live Reportback

We were running late, searching for food and the escalator to our section was broken. 

We arrived in time for one of the matches I was most excited about at least. 

Neville (c)  vs Ares was amazing, and it was awesome to see them put on suck a show for us. These two can wrestle and IMO deserved to be in the main show. 

The Andre The Giant Memorial battlw royal begin… 

A bunch of people who dont matter get tossed out immediately. There is no way to review this madness in real time.  Rob Gronkowski of the NE Patriots climbed over the barricaide after Jinder Mahal dumped water on him at ringside. Mojo Rawley eliminated Jinder Mahal for the win.

Next is Baron Corbin vs Dean Ambrose (c) for the Intercontinental Championship, Dean Ambrose retained his title. 

AJ Styles vs Shane MacMahon, this match was awesome. Shane still has “it” and AJ was awesome as always. AJ by pinfall. 

Kevin Owens vs Chris Jericho (c) for the US Title. Winner and new US Champ Kevin Owens. 

Bayley (c) vs Nia Jaxx vs Charlotte Flair vs Sasha Banks for the RAW Womens Title Nia was eliminated first followed by Sasha. Bayley retains her title with the pin on Charlotte. 

Enzo Amore and Big Cass vs Cesaro and Sheamus  vs Gallows and Anderson (c) for the Raw Tag Team Titles. The New Day comes out to make an announcement that this is now a fatal 4 way…. And the Hardys have RETURNED to WWE!!! Your new Raw Tag Champs are The Hardy’s! 

The Miz and Maryse vs John Cena and Nikki Bella… Cena and Bella win… lots of boo’s. John Cena then asks Nikki to marry him… more boo’s… she didn’t say anything audible whatsoever. Way to have a “moment”. 

Seth Rollins vs HHH in a non sanctioned match. Stephanie took a hard bump thrpugh the table, and Rollins picks up the win after a Pedigree on HHH. 

Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt  (c) for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Winner and new champion Randy Orton. 

Next Brock Lesner vs Goldberg… please make this end fast. It did. Goldberg won. 

Next is all the Smackdown Live women vs Alexa Bliss (c) for the Smackdown Womens Championship. The challengers are: Becky Lynch, Micky James, Nattie Neidhart, Carmela, and Naomi. Naomi  wins by submission on Alexa Bliss and is your new Champion!

Fastlane / Features , , , , , , , , , 0 Comments

WWE Fastlane Results

The last PPV  on the WWE Network before Wrestlemania, and here are the results:

Preshow Match: Swann and Towzowa win, Only caught the end of this match, and sad I missed it.

Sami Zayn vs Samoa Joe – Joe went for Sami as soon as he got into the ring. Joe kicks at Sami over and over, showing he is going to be a force to be reckoned with. Zayn tried a shoulder tackle, but it all goes wrong from there. Surprisingly Zayn is holding in there despite the beating he is taking.  Samoa Joe seems more brutal than ever. Zayn tries hard for a comeback, even gets Joe off his feet. But he stupidly attempts to go to the top rope, though he fights Joe off, but Joe still avoids his tomfoolery and gets a atomic drop to a 2 count. Joe gets another 2 count pinfall and there is some more back and forth in the match. Zayn gaining control again tried a sunset flip off the top, but it didnt work out, and Joe once again gains control and gets Zayn into submission. Samoa Joe by Submission.

Big Cass and Enzo Amore Vs Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson (C) for the Raw Tag Team titles – Enzo comes out and cuts a larger than life promo as usual. I love these guys. Big Cass really took to to Anderson, Too distracted to write about this match, but its a lot of great back and forth. Enzo alost has a pin but it is broken up, and in the ensuing chaos, Gallows and Anderson retain the belts.

Nia Jax Vs Sasha Banks – Nia Jax is absolutely dominating this match as I thought would happen in my predictions. Every time Sasha seems like she may have a chance, she gets torn back down, or stopped in her tracks. Sasha attempts high flying moves, submissions, and everything in her arsenal but nothing seems to work against Nia. When all seemed bleak Sasha Banks managed to roll Nia Jax into a small package for the win. Wow. What a match!!!

Cesaro Vs Jinder Mahal- This match up is pretty evenly matched. I probably won’t write much, as I rather watch it to be honest. IMO both of these guys are under appreciated, dominating forces in the WWE. Its great to see such big guys who move like they do. Cesaro picks up the win, and Jinder Mahal gets beat up at the hands of Rusev.

The Big Show comes to the ring, the bell rings, and we are now watching him tear Rusev apart. Rusev is usually pretty tough but TBS is making easy work of him. Rusev still has a bit of fight in him. Rusev almost gets a submission but TBS gets out, and wrecks him with a huge side slam. Rusev goes to the outside, but TBS drags him back by his hair, Rusev gets over for a second, but it doesnt last long. Rusev takes over by taking the big man down at the knees. Rusev gains the advantage and it looks bad for TBS but TBS comes back, and destroys Rusev, punches him out, and picks up the win.

Gentleman Jack Gallagher Vs Neville (C) for the Crusierweight Championship – Neville is pissed like a minute into the match, as Gallagher is pulling his goofy shit. Again too distracted by the actual match to give a play by play, but this has been extremely fast paced, and entertaining. I really dig watching both these guys work. Neville’s finisher is SIIIIIIIIIICK! He retains his belt. This was MOTN so far in my opinion.

Paul Heyman comes out and promotes Brock Lesner… That’s the sound of no one caring…

Its The New Day! And they have a bicycle powered ice cream cart, with a huge umbrella. New Day Pops! I wonder if they will be for sale at Mania?

Roman Reigns Vs Braun Strowman – Holy hell Strowman is powerful. This match is reminiscent of the women’s match earlier, as Reigns is getting no love, and gaining no traction. I thought these guys may break an announce table, but now I feel like they may just destroy the ring. These guys both move incredibly well for their size. It looks bad for Reigns, Strowman has worn him down. And Strowman goes the Spanish announce table…  but Reigns cuts him off. they are back in the ring, and shocking Reigns is still on his feet and in control. Strowman tried for a choke slam but Reigns cuts him off and gives him a back drop. Reigns goes for the superman punch, is cut off and cut down. Both men back to the outside, and Reigns end up through the table! What do I win? lol Strowman throws Reigns back into the ring, but Reigns gets the spear on him. Strowman kicks out. Reigns gets two Superman punches in but than gets cut off again. Somehow Strowman gets on the top rope but it doesn’t end well for him, and Reigns takes the opportunity to pick up the victory.

Charlotte Flair Vs Bayley(c) for the Raw Women’s Championship- Both women look ready to fight. This match is back and forth with ferocity, but no matter how she tries, Charlotte cannot gain the upper hand, Bayley is fighting her move for move. Watching this match makes me incredibly happy for where we are right now in women’s wrestling. (in fact overall the women’s division has become really fun to watch). Charlotte escapes to the outside, much like her father would, and Bayley takes the bait and follows. She gets cut off and Charlotte tosses her back in the ring to put the boot to her. No matter how Bayley tries to counter, Charlotte has gained control of the match and isn’t giving in easily. Charlotte is straight up punishing Bayley, with submission holds, and the simple fact that she can easily overpower her. Bayley isn’t giving up easily. Charlotte is running her through the ringer. Poor Bayley. She isn’t having a very easy time holding onto her belt. She better dig deep and find that heart that loves wresting so much that she would take this abuse. Bayley gets a second wind, and manages to turn things in her favor. She gets a 2 count on Charlotte. Bayley tries to set Charlotte up in the corner, but Charlotte is still too with it to go down without a fight. Bayley goes to the top, but Charlotte takes her down. Its back and forth, Charlotte climbs to the top, Bayley flips her off the top, but only gets a two count. Charlotte cuts her off again.  Charlotte begins talking to herself in the ring, and almost gets rolled up. She fights Bayley off again, sending Bayley to the outside. Charlotte goes to the top, but Sasha Banks runs out and rips her off the corner, and gives her a few good punches. Bayley gets a few more moves in on Charlotte, and it ends with a suplex, and Bayley retains her championship. With the interference will she get her title stripped like Naomi did? Seriously…

Kevin Owens (c) Vs Goldberg -Does anyone really care? I don’t, but Ill write the result when the match is done…Huge Shock Goldbeg Wins!

WWE Fastlane “Smart Money Odds” and Projected Winners, Non Finish in Championship Match?

The following odds are from 5 Dimes and represent the American 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 current odds for WWE Fastlane at this time can be considered “projected outcomes” or “smart money odds” and while there are long odds on some of the matches, many are much closer. In particular, the Raw Women’s Championship is so close this could end being a no contest. At the most recent WWE Pay Per View, Nikki Bella and Natalya in a double count out. The sports book taking these wagers canceled the bet and refunds were issued. This is how issues like this are handled. Charlotte is slightly favored at -160 but at one point was heavily favored at -1750. Charlotte Flair’s streak of being undefeated on PPV is believed by many to end at Wrestlemania next month for a Mania moment and a non-finish here would not contaminate Charlotte’s current streak. The cruiserweight tag of Swann and Tozawa vs Kendrick and Dar is very close and this is because it’s a pre-show match and not much money was put on it compared to the Women’s Championship.

The Raw Tag champs of Gallows and Anderson are favored to retain -560 and the challengers Enzo and Cass are rumored to have the big title win at Wrestlemania in Orlando where they spent so much time in NXT. Neville is also favored to retain his championship at -615 in the cruiserweight division.

The heaviest odds favorites are Goldberg at -2000 to beat Kevin Owens. Originally an underdog in the early lines, Nia Jax is favored at -1700 to win against Sasha Banks. Early bets on Nia could end up paying off and these early bets are what has driven Nia’s favorablility.

At -1625, Samoa Joe is thought of as a lock to beat Sami Zayn and Braun Strowman is at -1200 to beat Roman Reigns. Some sports books are also offering odds of 1/2(67%) that the Undertaker will interfere in Roman vs Braun. The speculation driving this is that this will be to further set up Roman vs Taker at Wrestlemania

There are separate lines available for “initial ruling” and “end of broadcast” grading. The initial ruling grading was just added and as of know both sets of lines are identical and any significant variance that emerges would suggest a “Dusty Finish” would happen. Keep an eye on these and these lines can be followed by anyone.

WWE Universal Championship

Kevin Owens(c) +1000 vs Goldberg -2000

WWE Raw Women’s Championship

Bayley(c) +120 vs Charlotte Flair -160

WWE Raw Tag Team Championship

Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson(c) -560 vs Enzo Amore & Big Cass +370

WWE Cruiserweight Championship

Neville -615 vs Jack Gallagher +405

Roman Reigns +600 vs Braun Strowman -1200 (Undertaker has odds of -200 to show up at ringside)

Sami Zayn +775 vs Samoa Joe -1625

Sasha Banks +800 vs Nia Jax -1700

Rich Swann & Akira Tozawa -215 vs The Brian Kendrick & Noam Dar +165

WWE Fastlane Betting Odds

The following odds are from 5 Dimes and represent the American 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.

American Odds from 5Dimes are in for this Sunday’s WWE Fastlane on the WWE Network and suggest that we will see two title changes barring a DQ or Count Out of course. Goldberg is a big favorite to dethrone current Universal Champion Kevin Owens. An even bigger favorite in Charlotte Flair to defeat Raw Women’s Champion Bayley as Charlotte is undefeated on PPV and the rumors indicate that this streak will not end until Wrestlemania 33.

Both the Raw Tag Champs Anderson and Gallows as well as Cruiserweight Champion Neville are favored to win their matches and retain those championships.

Roman Reigns is slightly favored to beat Braun Strowman and as a side note Irish sports book Paddy Power has a prop bet at 1/2(-200) that the Undertaker will appear at ringside for this match. This would further build to the rumored Mania match between Roman and Taker. The 1/2 odds mean a $2 bet would yield $1 or in other words Taker is favored to show up and get involved in the match.

Other matches see Samoa Joe heavily favored to beat Sami Zayn, and is fact the most favored of anyone to win at Fastlane. Sasha Banks is slightly favored to beat Nia Jax which is puzzling considered the monster push Jax has been getting all along. Finally the team of Rich Swann and Akira Tozawa are slightly favored to beat Brian Kendrick and Noam Dar in a tag match.

A quick explanation of these odds would be that the minus indicated the favorite and the plus for the underdog. The number after the plus or minus tells us how favored or unfavored the competitors are. For example, betting $1350 on Goldberg at -1350 would only win $100 because he is so favored but it would only take a successful $100 bet on Owens at +650 to win $650 due to Kevin being the underdog. The odds are constantly changing and can be followed in real time.

WWE Universal Championship

Kevin Owens(c) +650 vs Goldberg -1350

WWE Raw Women’s Championship

Bayley(c) +850 vs Charlotte Flair -1750

WWE Raw Tag Team Championship

Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson(c) -300 vs Enzo Amore & Big Cass +220

WWE Cruiserweight Championship

Neville -460 vs Jack Gallagher +320

Roman Reigns -185 vs Braun Strowman +145 (Undertaker has odds of -200 to show up at ringside)

Sami Zayn +1000 vs Samoa Joe -2000

Sasha Banks -230 vs Nia Jax +170

Rich Swann & Akira Tozawa -195 vs The Brian Kendrick & Noam Dar +170

Odds for New Matches for WWE Royal Rumble 2017

The following odds are from 5 Dimes and represent the American 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 [clink id=”1″]by clicking here[/clink].

Preshow matches have had odds set and because they were recently posted they haven’t moved like the matches that were posted earlier in the weeks. All are under “end of preshow broadcast grading” to account for a possible “Dusty Finish” in the case an initial decision is reversed or a match is restarted.

A brief explanation on how to read the lines. These are known as “American Odds” or Moneyline and the minus sign is to indicate the favorite and the plus for the underdog. A $100 bet on Sasha Banks at +365 would win $365 because she’s the underdog. At -555, it would take a $555 wager on Nia Jax just to yield $100 because she is favored.

WWE Raw Tag Team Championship
Cesaro & Sheamus -140 vs Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson +100

Six Woman Tag Team Match
Becky Lynch, Nikki Bella and Naomi -530 vs Alexa Bliss, Mickie Jame and Natalya +350

Singles Match
Sasha Banks +600 vs Nia Jax -1200

The odds for the matches posted earlier in the week have moved and even flipped in the case of the Universal Championship Match, but the “smart money odds” have not been entirely determined yet. This should happen sometime before the event. They are currently fluctuating in either direction.

WWE Championship
AJ Styles(c) +550 vs John Cena -1050

WWE Universal Championship
Kevin Owens(c) -1500 vs Roman Reigns +700

WWE Raw Women’s Championship
Charlotte Flair(c) -1500 vs Bayley +700

WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Rich Swann(c) +650 vs Neville -1350

Randy Orton is still the odds on favorite to win the Royal Rumble at -1200. Orton is so favored right now that a bet on “the field” is +600. This means you can bet against Orton and if anyone else wins the wager is successful.
