His Time To Lose? John Cena’s Underdog Status Shakes Up SummerSlam Betting Markets

a 2025 SummerSlam promo featuring Cody Rhodes and John Cena

This weekend, SummerSlam, the WWE’s annual premium live event, will take place over the course of two nights for the first time in the promotion’s history. The PLE is known for headline championship matches and wrapping up big-time storylines, and this year’s card delivers on that promise.

The odds for each of the following SummerSlam betting lines will be displayed in the order of BetUS, followed by BetOnline, for comparison.

Undisputed Championship Betting Line

Cody Rhodes -260, -400
John Cena +170, +250

Cody Rhodes lost his WWE Undisputed Championship to John Cena at WrestleMania in April. Online WWE sportsbooks are predicting that Cena will drop the strap back to Cody at SummerSlam.

Where you end up placing your SummerSlam bet depends on which wrestler you are wagering on and how much you’d like to win.

Shopping the odds can help you find the best payout for your gambling dollar, but you also need to pay attention to the maximum bet limits. In this case, the higher moneyline for Cena also features the highest max bet on the boards.

Placing the max bet of $25 on Cena’s +250 odds to win at BetOnline has the potential to net gamblers $62.50 if he retains at SummerSlam. The max bet of $10 on Cena’s +170 moneyline at BetUS will only net $17 if he wins.

Rhodes’ odds to win are set at -260 at BetUS, where the max wager of $10 will net $3.85. Larger payouts are available at BetOnline by laying the max bet of $100 on Cody’s -400 moneyline for a chance at $25.

World Heavyweight Championship Betting Line

Gunther +170, +150
CM Punk -260, -200

Punk’s return to the WWE has been a massive success, but he has yet to win a championship thus far. Pro wrestling betting sites are unified in their projections that he will defeat Gunther and capture the WWE Heavyweight Championship.

Randy Orton & Jelly Roll vs Drew McIntyre & Logan Paul

Randy Orton & Jelly Roll -400, -700
Drew McIntyre & Logan Paul +250, +400

One tag team match that is running the risk of cancellation is Randy Orton and Jelly Roll vs Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul. Upon attempting to return home to the United States from a recent trip to Scotland, Drew McIntyre was denied access to board his plane because he had forgotten his passport.

McIntyre blamed Jelly Roll in a social media post, which suggested the incident could be storyline-related; however, the promotion followed up with a press release indicating that the situation is authentic.

Below are the WWE odds for the remaining SummerSlam matches, with comparisons between BetUS and BetOnline.

Roman Reigns & Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed

Roman Reigns & Jey Uso -1600, -1500
Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed +600, +600
