Any reason why Zack Ryder is 1/5 overwhelming fav to win his match at Mania?:laugh:

Not watched for a few weeks bar the specials, but fair play to the writers if they managed to salvage him in 2016, that's some Spiderman **** to quote Marlo in the Wire::ph34r:

Their is hope for everyone then.

Or has everyone else in the match failed drug tests or made a pass at Stephanie or something?:laugh:

yeah some people really think he might win it. i dunno. he looked strong over the past couple of weeks but i think that's just because he truly replaced neville, so that was neville supposed to look strong and they just left it with zack. i honesallt don't get why you'd do any result other than kevin, but then i don't get why they're doing this match at all

Kalisto (c) vs. Ryback
The Total Divas (Brie Bella, Paige, Natalya, Alicia Fox and Eva Marie) vs. B.A.D. & Blonde (Lana, Naomi, Tamina, Emma and Summer Rae)
André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal (Bray Wyatt)
The Usos (Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso) vs. The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley)

The New Day (Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) vs. The League of Nations (Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio, Rusev and King Barrett)
Charlotte (c) (with Ric Flair) vs. Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks
Kevin Owens (c) vs. Sami Zayn vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Zack Ryder vs. Sin Cara vs. The Miz vs. Stardust
AJ Styles vs. Chris Jericho

Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar
Triple H (c) vs. Roman Reigns
Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker

Tipping Shane to leave as a heel, Austin and McMahon to interfere in matches but Rock to just do a promo or something and A Name will return in the Royal, probably Cesaro.

Shane-Taker hardest pick just because either result doesn't really make that much sense

Agree with Spikey but I wouldn't be surprised if Bray wasn't in the Battle Royal and shows up somewhere else in the show. Mark Henry or Samoa Joe my top picks for winner of the ARMBAR

they haven't hyped up mark henry's retirement much. i figure he'll have a retirement match on the ppv after wm against ko or something instead of winning here

Bookies are favouring Jericho over Styles as well, which just isn't going to happen.

I'd imagine some over enthusiastic gamblers/WWE fans have heard a rumour and piled on it. Given no one bets on wrestling it won't take much for the bookies to want to cover their arse and move the odds.

listening to jonomonster's preview, and I forgot to mention this in the card post. To be clear, New Day match is not for the belts. there's a reason for that, supposedly.

review: 411MANIA | Evolve 58 Thoughts: Don?t Read This Column, Watch Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Will Ospreay Instead

For those that don't know:

Zack Saber Jr is the best technical wrestler in the world. He does insane holds and submissions and transitions. Will Ospreay was already a top 5 flier in the world, and then has had a very strong last 6 or so months, and this weekend has had that match, and then today had a highly rated match against Ricochet and was in the (highly rated) 6 man tag match featuring Kota Ibushi. So you know, his hype is only growing. And he's 22.

ZSJ will be in the cruiser weight tournament thing and really oughta go deep into it before putting a WWE guy over. Ospreay starts in NJPW next week, and is going for the super jrs title and has joined Okada's Chaos stable. It's not clear if he's not available for the cruiser weight tournament but I'd lean towards no.
