The 2024 Royal Rumble event has a lot of attention, and the location is already locked down in Florida. Now, the winner of the big match is a topic of conversation, as it will be for a while.
CM Punk’s exit from AEW was not his decision. He didn’t walk out, because he was fired after allegedly sucker punching Jack Perry during a backstage confrontation at AEW All In London.
OLGB reports that CM Punk is actually one of the most likely winners of the 2024 Royal Rumble match. It was stated that his exit from AEW put him on top of the list of most likely winners.
CM Punk is a new addition to the bookies list for the 2024 Royal Rumble, after being dramatically fired by Tony Khan and the AEW earlier in the month. With odds of 10/1, Punk is in the top 5 favorites to win the Royal Rumble with a rumored return to return back to WWE.
In case you’re interested in the rest of the odds, Gunther leads the pack with odds of 2/1, giving him a 33.3% probability of winning. Following closely is The Rock at 4/1, with a 20.0% chance of victory.
Seth Rollins has odds of 5/1, equating to a 16.7% likelihood of winning, while Randy Orton stands at 9/1 with a 10.0% probability. CM Punk’s odds are 10/1, giving him a 9.1% chance, and John Cena lags behind with odds of 50/1, making his probability just 2.0%.
Ringside News exclusively reported in June that WWE decided on the winner of the 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble match. We were told that “the Royal Rumble winner has been decided and any reports you hear about the winner are false or made up or bad sources.” Ringside News doubled back and re-confirmed in September that their decision has not changed.
The Royal Rumble match will directly go on to influence WrestleMania’s booking. It appears that the company is certainly keeping oddsmakers busy in the process.
