WWE SummerSlam odds and predictions

Ever wonder if you can bet on scripted WWE matches? The answer is yes. One of the promotion's biggest events of the year will take place on Sunday, and you can find odds for SummerSlam at multiple sportsbooks.

While there are lines for all the main matches at SummerSlam, some wrestlers are such big favorites that there's no value in taking the underdog. However, there are other spots where bettors can take advantage.

Here are all the matchups, odds, and picks for this year's WWE SummerSlam.

Bayley (-200) vs. Ember Moon (+150)

Bayley is one of the most popular WWE Superstars but it feels like the organization is ready to give Moon a long-deserved push. This is an even match and the line should be closer to "pick," so take the value with the underdog in Moon. It's the perfect time for WWE to give her the SmackDown women's title.

Pick: Moon

Becky Lynch (-300) vs. Natalya (+200)

This is one of the hardest matches to predict because the feud makes no sense. Lynch is not only the WWE Women's Champion, but also arguably the organization's most popular wrestler right now - male or female. Meanwhile, Natalya had been doing dark matches up until a couple of months ago. However, her father, WWE Hall of Famer Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, recently passed away. Natalya is also from Canada and SummerSlam is being held in Toronto. This smells like an opportunity for WWE to give her the title in what would be an emotional moment.

Rumors are swirling that Natalya's friend Ronda Rousey will return at SummerSlam. Rousey could play a role in the ending, setting up a feud with Lynch and a rematch at WrestleMania. Add it all up and it equals a surprising win for the +200 underdog.

Pick: Natalya

Charlotte Flair (-250) vs. Trish Stratus (+170)

Stratus is a WWE legend and she's already announced this will be her final match. Conventional wisdom says WWE will have her win, but that's not the direction the promotion's been going in lately with similar situations. For instance, Kurt Angle recently dropped his final match to Baron Corbin. While logic says Stratus, I wish I loved anything in life as much as Vince McMahon loves Charlotte Flair. Rousey could make an appearance here instead of the Becky-Natalya match, but it doesn't make as much sense. Lean with Charlotte getting the win.

Pick: Flair

Goldberg (-650) vs. Dolph Ziggler (+375)

Goldberg is returning after facing The Undertaker at SuperShowdown, which was largely considered one of the worst matches in WWE history. The Undertaker redeemed himself at Extreme Rules, and Goldberg will look to do the same Sunday. As the odds suggest, Goldberg isn't likely to lose. He appeared out of nowhere last week to announce he's fighting Ziggler without any build-up, so look for the favorite to roll here.

Pick: Goldberg

Bray Wyatt (-1000) vs. Finn Balor (+525)

There isn't much to analyze with a -1000 favorite. WWE has been teasing Wyatt's return for months after altering his gimmick. Now wearing a mask and calling himself "The Fiend," it would be shocking if Wyatt lost in his return to WWE. There isn't a lot of value with the dog in this matchup because the ending is predictable.

Pick: Wyatt

Kevin Owens (-400) vs. Shane McMahon (+250)

Everything points to Owens winning this match. However, when it comes to a McMahon storyline, nothing is guaranteed. This is a spot where it makes sense to take a stab at the underdog. KO deserves to be a big favorite because his career is on the line but the McMahons like to zig with their own storylines when everyone expects them to zag. We're going with Shane in an upset.

Pick: Shane

A.J. Styles (-200) vs. Ricochet (+150)

WWE has been giving Ricochet a strong push, although this isn't the match to jump on him. Styles recently reformed "The Club" and all three members are currently champions. The WWE wants The Club to be a major force leading up to Wrestlemania, so Styles at -200 to remain United States Champion is one of the strongest plays on the board.

Pick: Styles

Kofi Kingston (-200) vs. Randy Orton (+150)

WWE clearly has no idea what it's doing with Kofi. Why is he fighting Randy Orton? It makes no sense. Kingston should be in a real feud; not facing a part-timer at SummerSlam. It would be a big mistake by the WWE's decision-makers if Orton wins. Look for Kofi to retain the WWE title and hopefully be involved in more interesting storylines moving forward.

Pick: Kingston

Brock Lesnar (-200) vs. Seth Rollins (+150)

WWE's issue with Lesnar is that it really needs him to be a champion or hold something like the Money in the Bank to keep him relevant. It was surprising that Lesnar cashed the Money in the Bank so quickly, because that was one of the few storylines that actually worked with him. Rollins upset Lesnar at WrestleMania but don't expect lightning to strike twice. The Beast will remain Universal Champion.

Pick: Lesnar
