WWE RAW picks require very little digging. Thanks again to the Bovada online sportsbook. However, there are always some different options to look at during September. For example, WWE Raw comes to you Monday night from the SAP Center in San Jose, California. Let’s take a look at a couple of matches and make some picks.
WWE Monday Night Raw Matches | ||
---|---|---|
Kevin Owens | -350 | -350 |
Austin Theory | +200 | +225 |
Bobby Lashley | -150 | -160 |
Seth Rollins | +120 | +120 |
The WWE RAW Picks on Monday night has an intriguing card from San Jose. Granted, the three-hour show will have its usual amount of filler and matches that will “take up time.” That is inevitable. There will be the perpetuation of feuds, maybe a better match for Omos, not just some stiffs, and some inevitable women’s champion trash talking.
Now, the SAP Center figures to be close to sold out potentially for tonight’s matches. There is a treat with a title belt on the line between two former World Champions and a game that brewed from a brawl last week on RAW. The three-hour card reveals quite a bit about what may happen this night. As always, RAW runs a little over time. Keep that in mind.
So, yes, the September 19th RAW’s have had some memorable moments. There is little doubt that the two headline matches will feature more of the unexpected. So, the champion match for the US Title features Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley. Do not forget about the Austin Theory-Kevin Owens. That match could feature more genuine bad blood and steal some of the thunder.
Consequently, WWE RAW Picks focuses on these two matches. Who is going to win on Monday night? Could we have Theory finally beating Owens? Will the US Title change hands? Here at VegasBetting, our WWE choices are below.
Granted, Austin Theory has a ton of motivation in WWE RAW Picks. One never truly can underestimate how much a grappler like Kevin Owens can push someone. Is this a way or avenue for Theory to gain the “cred” he needs to advance up the WWE ladder? The wrestler has plenty of value as of now. That is the reality of wagering on these WWE RAW matches. It does not take much for the numbers to swing a bit.
Now, the strangest thing is what happened last Monday on RAW. There is this feeling that the wrestlers are anticipated to accelerate this “brawl” to draw a match. Honestly, Theory’s nose may be the biggest question. Will it be healed enough, or will theory make an issue? Most agree it made sense that Owens and Theory were given this angle to get Austin Theory finally more “over,” so to speak.
Alas, there lies some sense here for Theory to defeat Owens on Monday night. Most wrestlers found some slightly predictable results and left a few more questions than answers. Again, all signs keep pointing to Owens likely winning on Monday night. However, what if the angle sets up Theory to show his worth at last? After all, the brawl last week was one of the few things that did not look staged.
Finally, this match comes down to who is the “jobber”? Frankly, there is chatter that it could be Owens. After all, if Owens and Gargano are the “soul and essence of this WWE,” then they will keep plugging while guys like Theory move on. Faces and souls are two different things. A Theory win would be considered more of an upset. With the range of value on Monday night, WWE RAW Picks back Theory to take this pivotal match.
The WWE Picks asks the betting world this next question. Could Seth Rollins defeat Bobby Lashley for the United States Title? They were possibilities of this happening earlier this summer. Sure, anything is possible, and wrestling loves matches like this. When the predictable does not work, why not pair two former world title holders against each other? After all, Rollins and Lashley have higher aspirations, but they are Monday night headliners.
Again, there are times when a match like this was almost taboo in the Vince MacMahon era. However, this is a different time, with HHH and Stephanie running the show. The challenge will be cards like this for HHH. Sustaining the momentum from successful pay-per-views is vital for the sustenance of the WWE as an entity. With the competition licking their chops, these shows and this match are almost as crucial as that Theory-Owens tussle.
Few would be surprised if the dreaded “outside interference” comes in the form of Matt Riddle or someone finds a way to keep Rollins from winning. Seth is the slight underdog and has paid his dues considerably. It would be more of a surprise than to just have the logic in Lashley winning here. Again, there is a feeling of expecting the unexpected.
For the WWE RAW picks, taking Seth Rollins here is less risky than Lashley in some ways on Monday night.
There is Austin Theory and that suitcase. Again, he does have a little control.
The question becomes, when does Theory cash that in? This will be something to keep an eye on. By the way, Theory cashing in the suitcase at the Crown Jewel stands at +350 currently. It’s not a long shot. Extreme Rules and Survivor Series still make the most sense for now. Stay tuned.
September always carries entertainment. Now, BetOnline online sportsbook have a few more angles.
