The sports gambling world is fully focused on Week 1 of the NFL Preseason, but Sunday is another big gambling event. No, I'm not talking about English Premier League that kicks off this weekend or Major League Baseball, but I'm talking about the big WWE pay-per-view event in Toronto. Yes, I'm talking about WWE SummerSlam that takes place at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.
Brock Lesnar defends the Universal Championship at SummerSlam (2018) 1/5. Brock Lesnar retains the Universal Championship at Summer Slam (2018) 9/2. Brock Lesnar re-signs with the WWE in 2018. If Lesnar is leaving the WWE, he needs to lose his title, and there’s no bigger or better stage than SummerSlam. These odds are courtesy of 5Dimes, a sports book accepting customers worldwide. The betting odds for Summerslam are out earlier than most PPVs and three champions have odds against successful title defenses. Roman Reigns had been in his three previous challenges to Brock Lesnar and this time is no different with Reigns being favored at -300.
Sunday's WWE SummerSlam is pretty good. However, let's face it, some big roster names do not have matches Sunday night. Most of the big championship belts are up for grabs at the Scotiabank Arena, and as of Friday 10 matches are on the SummerSlam card. We could see some major spoilers and surprise outcomes on Sunday night and maybe one or two female performers that we haven't seen in awhile. Most offshore books will take a bit more money on this PPV event because it's the biggest PPV of the summer, and the WWE suits in the back are usually tight lipped when it comes to this SummerSlam card. Global sportsbook MyBookie has posted odds on nine matches this Sunday, and I can guarantee we will see at least one championship belt exchanged. Sunday's SummerSlam betting card has some head-scratching betting lines with great value, and I do see multiple plus-money winners.
- While many of the SummerSlam 2018 matches can be seen as toss-ups, the current betting odds suggest the matches at the top of the card are easy picks. According to 5Dimes Sportsbook, four of.
- The betting odds are rarely, if ever, completely correct – but if they are for SummerSlam we can expect both world titles to change hands, the RAW Tag Team titles and the RAW Women’s title.
My WWE betting predictions have been profitable. And with the last seven WWE pay-per-view events, I have gone an outstanding 40-14 and scored multiple plus-money winners. At WrestleMania we went 7-2 on the betting card with two plus-money winners. Our last 25 WWE PPV's I am 122-51 (71 percent), and if you are going to place some action on the SummerSlam card, do it very quickly. SummerSlam should also set up some outstanding matches for the next couple of PPV's, and we could see some long storylines and probably more underdog winners.
WWE RAW Singles Match
Goldberg -450
Dolph Ziggler +325
Can someone please tell me why Goldberg is in this match or even on the SummerSlam card? This match should not be a long match, and hurry up and bet Goldberg because this number will close around -600 or higher. Please, WWE, can you keep this match under 5 minutes?!
Prediction: Goldberg -450
WWE Smackdown Singles Match
Trish Stratus +210
Charlotte Flair -270
The two best female performers from different eras do battle Sunday night, and it's hard for me to believe that Charlotte loses this match. Trish Stratus is Canadian, so right now the bettors are jumping on the plus-money, but I don't see her stealing this match. Charlotte is at top of her game, and I don't see the upside of giving her the loss. This match will be a good one, but Charlotte wins by the figure eight in the center of the ring.
Prediction: Charlotte Flair -270
WWE RAW United States Championship
AJ Styles -180
Ricochet +160
Match of the night right here as AJ Styles, the United States champ, goes one-on-one with newcomer Ricochet. You figure the 'OC' will have something to do in this match, but I see Ricochet pulling off the big upset here and getting his championship belt back. Match of the night and possibly upset of the night.
Prediction: Ricochet +160
WWE Smackdown Singles Match
Finn Balor +1600
Bray Wyatt -3500
It's no secret that Finn Balor is taking a break after SummerSlam, so this is an easy prediction.
Prediction: Bray Wyatt -3500
WWE Smackdown Singles Match
Summerslam Betting Odds 2018
Kevin Owens -400
Shane McMahon +300
Career on the line match takes place in Canada, and I love the mic work Kevin Owens has done to sell this match. To me it looks like they are building Owens as the next Stone Cold Steve Austin rebel in the company, and I like the move. However, let's face it, I would cheer for anybody to get Shane McMahon off my TV. Kevin Owens is another Canadian fighting in front of his home crowd, and this crowd will be loud. I see Owens winning this match by multiple stunners, and Owens keeps his career.
Prediction: Kevin Owens -400
WWE Smackdown Women's Championship
Bayley -160
Ember Moon +140
Boy, has this build-up for this match been a bore, and the only thing I see saving this match is maybe Sasha Banks coming out from hiding and showing up in Toronto. Is it time to put a belt on a new women wrestler? That's the biggest question here, and I do believe Ember Moon will be the new Smackdown Women's Championship.
Prediction: Ember Moon +140
WWE Smackdown Men's Championship
Kofi Kingston -260
Randy Orton +200
This match should be a good one. And if I don't see a RKO outta nowhere in this match, I will be pissed. Kofi Kingston in my eyes will be the Smackdown Champion all through 2019, and I see him losing the title at WrestleMania. However, Sunday night this brawl will have some great moments.
Prediction: Kofi Kingston -260
WWE RAW Women's Championship
Becky Lynch -260
Natalya +200
This match for the Women's RAW Championship should be electric, and this match is a 'Submission' match. Natalya is fighting in her backyard, and she will perform brilliantly, but at the end of the night I don't see the suits in the back taking away Becky Lynch's belt. Now if Ronda Rousey comes out and surprises us then we could see something that we will be talking about for the next month.
Prediction: Becky Lynch -260
Summerslam Betting Odds 2018 Predictions
WWE RAW Men's Championship
Brock Lesnar -280
Seth Rollins +220
Here we go! The WrestleMania 35 rematch will be brutal, and I do believe we will see some real blood in the ring. I really want to take the plus-money with Seth Rollins, but I see Brock Lesnar retaining the belt and maybe losing it to Braun Strowman down the road. I like Rollins as a performer, but as the WWE Champion the fans just don't give him the 'Love' that we have seen with other baby face champions. The betting public is all over the +220 with Rollins, but at the end of the night the 'Beast' retains.
Prediction: Brock Lesnar -280

Written By Graeme on August 10, 2018The WWE’s biggest event of the summer is right around the corner as SummerSlam comes to us from Brooklyn on Sunday, August 19th.
They’ve done a nice job of building up this show.
The show will be headlined by Roman Reigns taking on Brock Lesnar which definitely seems like their final showdown (of course, we’ve said that before).
We also have the much anticipated Ronda Rousey and Alexa Bliss battle, a match that could steal the show in Samoa Joe vs. AJ Styles and the best built feud in maybe the past twenty years of WWE in Daniel Bryan vs. The Miz.
This should be a good one.
The complete betting odds are below:
- Roman Reigns (-300) vs. Brock Lesnar (+220)
- Ronda Rousey (-420) vs. Alexa Bliss (+300)
- AJ Styles (-160) vs. Samoa Joe (+120)
- The Bludgeon Brothers (-140) vs. The New Day (+100)
- Braun Strowman (-300) vs. Kevin Owens (+220)
- Seth Rollins (-285) vs. Dolph Ziggler (+205)
- Becky Lynch (+110) vs. Charlotte Flair (+185) vs. Carmella (+245)
- Drew Gulak (-145) vs. Cedric Alexander (+105)
- Shinsuke Nakamura (-265) vs. Jeff Hardy (+185)
- Finn Balor (-155) vs. Baron Corbin (+115)
- The Miz -170 vs. Daniel Bryan +130

There are definitely some interesting lines here. Samoa Joe becomes a really interesting pick as a slight underdog. AJ Styles has had that title forever and he’s running out of opponents. This would be a great place to do the switch, but you wonder if they plan to stretch things out like they did with Nakamura.
Speaking of Nakamura, I was surprised to see him as a favorite against Jeff Hardy. This feud has been more about Randy Orton than anything and it almost feels like Jeff Hardy should win to set up a match with Orton. Of course, it could just be Orton interfering and ruining this as well.
A lot of people are convinced that Kevin Owens will beat Braun Strowman somehow to win the Money in the Bank and cash-in that night. I don’t really see that happening, but it’s definitely food for thought and at +220 is a good value.
The most interesting betting line of the night is the three way Smackdown Women’s Championship match between Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair and Carmella. You can get positive odds on all three ladies with Becky Lynch being the slight favorite. Carmella has beaten (and ruined the mystique of) Asuka so it’s not hard to see WWE being so committed to her that she wins here. Of course, Charlotte is always a threat as she’s one of the best bets in all of WWE. There are hints of a Becky and Charlotte friendship break-up here which could lead to a Carmella win. Just a lot going on here.
The Miz enters the match-up with Daniel Bryan as a slight favorite. I could see a lot of action on Daniel Bryan there just out of love for Bryan, but The Miz is like Charlotte in that he is always a good bet.
A ton of matches on this one and a ton to think about. We’ll have our complete tips up soon.
