John Cena just did the unthinkable. The 16-time world champion punched his ticket to the main event of WrestleMania 41 by winning the Elimination Chamber match, only to turn on Cody Rhodes immediately after. Cenas shocking betrayal saw him align with The Rock, setting up one of the most dramatic championship showdowns in recent memory.
Now, oddsmakers are weighing in, and Cena is the clear favorite heading into WrestleMania 41. According to BetOnline.ag, Cena is sitting at -200 (1/2) odds, giving him a 66.7% chance to walk out as the Undisputed WWE Champion. Rhodes, on the other hand, is at +150 (3/2), making him the underdog in what will undoubtedly be the biggest fight of his career.
The stakes are just as intense for the World Heavyweight Championship. Jey Uso has been given a 90.9% chance of dethroning Gunther, with odds at -1000 (1/10). Gunther opened at +800 (8/1) but has since tightened slightly to +550 (11/2).
Meanwhile, the WWE Womens Championship battle between Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton is shaping up to be a closer contest. Flair is currently favored at -150 (2/3), while Stratton sits at +110 (11/10). The odds initially had Flair at -200 (1/2) and Stratton at +150 (3/2), suggesting more confidence in the reigning champ as WrestleMania approaches.
Cenas heel turn changes everything. Once a polarizing figure, the WWE Universe had largely moved past booing him. Now? Expect the arena to erupt in deafening jeers when he steps into the ring. BetOnline.ag put it best: The boos will be loud and vociferous. And lets hope the content is great.
