CM Punk moves into odds-on to win this year's Royal Rumble
One of the biggest events on the WWE calendar takes place this weekend with the 2025 Royal Rumble airing live on Netflix from Indianapolis and it’s a wide open market over who will win the big match.
CM Punk leads the betting odds at 5/6 to win the Royal Rumble with bookmakers putting him just above Roman Reigns to be the last man standing.
Punk has regularly spoken about how he wants to win the event in the build-up throughout the past month with the winner getting a shot at the title at Wrestlemania.
Chicago’s own has never main-evented Wrestlemania but this year could finally be the time for it to happen with Paddy Power's odds giving a 54.5% implied probability of him winning.

| Roman Reigns | 10/3 | 23.1% |
| Seth Rollins | 5/1 | 16.7% |
