WWE WrestleMania Backlash Predictions, Card and Betting Odds
Ronda Rousey (-700) vs Charlotte Flair (+360)- I Quit Match for the SmackDown Women’s Championship
After a not-so-clean finish to their WrestleMania match, they are back again at WrestleMania Backlash. This time we won’t get a winner until someone says “I quit.” These two have a lot of bad blood between them, so they will absolutely do whatever they can to destroy each other and make them say “I quit.”
There should be no surprises this time, and Rousey should make Flair say “I Quit” and walk away with the Smackdown Women’s Championship.
Winner: Ronda Rousey (-700)
Cody Rhodes (-325) vs Seth Rollins (+220)
Another rematch from WrestleMania is Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. Rhodes made his return at WrestleMania and since then has been the fan favorite. From talking about wanting to be WWE Champion since he was eight to wanting to bring back the Winged Eagle Title. Rollins, though, is not just going to let Rhodes waltz back in and get in front of him without a fight.
This should be another match that delivers on the card and gives Rollins the win to bring him to .500 on the rivalry.
Winner: Seth Rollins (+220)
Drew McIntyre & RK-Bro (-300) vs The Bloodline (+200)
This match started as a unification match for the tag team championships. In a weird twist, the match changed to a six-man tag match and added Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre. This match will probably be used as a way to give Roman Reigns a loss and not have him take the fall. Give this one to McIntyre & RK-Bro.
Winner: Drew McIntyre & Rk-Bro (-300)
Edge (-145) vs AJ Styles (+100)
At WrestleMania, these two had a great match that ended with Damian Priest joining Edge’s Faction. This time around, Priest is barred from ringside. Edge won’t get any help from any current member in his faction, but that’s not to say that no one else could be joining. That being said, AJ Styles will even the score in this rivalry.
Winner: AJ Styles (+100)
Omos (-300) vs Bobby Lashley (+200)
The fourth rematch from WrestleMania comes in the match with Omos and Bobby Lashley. We do have a change this time around, as MVP is managing Omos now and not Lashley. Omos is so big that WWE wants to push him, especially with a mouthpiece like MVP. Our WrestleMania Backlash prediction is that Omos wins the rematch
Winner: Omos (-300)
Madcap Moss (-200) vs Happy Corbin (+135)
Two superstars that have been embarrassed by Drew McIntyre and now are mad they didn’t help the other one. Okay, that’s not the whole truth, Corbin is now jealous that Madcap Moss won the Andre the Giant Battle Royal. Now, these two will meet in the ring for a friend turned foe match. Moss is looking to finally get a little push, so expect him to win.
