WWE Summerslam: Betting Preview And Predictions
5. Randy Orton Vs. Sheamus
Betting Prediction:
The Irishman Sheamus (1/6) comes into this one as a comfortable favourite to pick up the win over Randy Orton (7/2)
Storyline Implications:
Sheamus winning is perhaps an indication that WWE are finally starting to build him up ahead of his expected title reign when he cashes in his Money in the Bank contract. Although it might be a while yet before he does choose to cash in, which means that a feud against someone like Big Show, who will put the Irishman over further, might be up next.
Orton’s path is a bit less clear, although perhaps a heel-turn might be coming up for him in the not too distant future given that his current run as a face is starting to become a bit stale.
