Believe it or not United States President Donald J Trump has odds from The
European market for this Sunday’s WWE Royal Rumble. 30 men compete in an
over the top rope rumble and the winner gets a championship title shot at
Wrestlemania 33. Trump has odds of 1000/1 to win the match and he’s not
even scheduled to be in attendance. To put this in perspective a $1 bet
could win $1000. Former President Barack Obama has the same odds. The same
sports book is offering odds on Donald Trump being given honorary
knighthood by the United Kingdom. These can be found under the novelties
section of the sports book. This is an Irish sportbook and does not take
wagers from the United States and Canada but does in many other nations.
As far as the possibility of Trump winning this year’s Royal Rumble,
it’s only a matter of showing up. If The President enters the match,
it’s not imaginable that he would lose. That would guarantee an
appearance at Wrestlemania 33 in Orlando. Having just been sworn in 9 days
before the rumble, it seems extremely unlikely that Donald would show up at
all however. A Wrestlemania appearance is likely at some point, though this
year is probably not the year. There is a fair chance he could show up in
December for the WWE’s Annual Tribute to the Troops event, at least via
satellite. There’s still the WWE connection because Linda McMahon,
Vince’s wife, earned a position in The President’s cabinet as head of
the Small Business Administration.
The European Market is offering “Special Bets” on the Royal Rumble
match with odds on events that could occur during the match. These are from
Paddy Power, an Irish sports book known for bizarre and sometimes
controversial odds for exotic and novelty betting.
A brief and simple explanation on how to understand these fractional odds.
The number on the right if risked would return winnings of the number on
the left. So a $6 bet on Sami Zayn lasting the longest in the rumble would
yield $5 if the bet is won. Based on these odds, it’s more likely to happen
than not. The other extreme would be James Ellsworth’s 33/1 odds on
eliminating Goldberg. In this case a $1 bet would win $33 because it’s not
very likely to happen.
Sami Zayn to stay in the match for the longest time 5/6
Cesaro to eliminate Sheamus 6/4
Enzo Amore to eliminate Rusev 6/4
Dean Ambrose to eliminate Baron Corbin15/8
Seth Rollins to stay in the match for the longest time 9/4

7/1

Final 4 to be Undertaker, Goldberg, Brock Lesnar and Chris Jericho 8/1
Finn Balor to enter number 1 and win 10/1
The Undertaker to enter number 1 and win 10/1
Final 6 to be: Undertaker, Strowman, Jericho, Rollins, Orton and Wyatt 14/1
Chris Jericho to win and Sami Zayn to stay in the match longest 16/1
James Ellsworth to eliminate Goldberg 33/1
