On williamhill.com, a betting website as I'm sure you know, I have just bet on the Cena Miz match, and the Taker HHH match. HHH is an outside 9/2 whereas Taker is a 1/8 to win. I bet a measly £2.50 on HHH to win. If he does, which he won't, but if he does, I will win £13.75. Cena and Miz are both 5/6. I bet £7.50 on Miz to win this, and again the return would be £13.75. Am I a moron? Tell you what though, it makes it more fun for me to watch because now I am REALLY going to root for HHH!

It's totally legal.
You can bet on basically anything.
But pretty much every place that allows wrestling bets have a limit of like $100 or $1,000 so that no one can totally abuse the system.

I just hope that the people you betted against aren`t WWE bookers.

Undertaker was 1/10 when I first saw it. I was amazed at first that they were taking bets on a pre-determined outcome, but then I remember a few places were taking bets on who killed Phil Mitchell on Eastenders, a story that had already been filmed.

damn, was just bout to post this, strangest betting market ive ever seen, if you were a big player(i.e. thousands to game) you could make a guaranteed small profit by doin the two doubles of undertaker(banker) and one each wit cena nd miz, altho wit my small stakes of a fiver, il only win 31p!!! what happens if the rock gets involved and wins?! hills have opened a can of worms here

I placed a massive bet on Santino to be WWE champion by the end of the night.
And the fact I am on WWE's creative team is completely unrelated to that bet.

The irony is betting on wrestling is still more legit than betting on some Serie B matches (allegedly).

I always see Wrestlemania odds around this time. No idea if they do it for other PPVs. There is no way Taker doesn't win.
