Odds on different websites differ however as of right now, everything seems to point to a new WWE champion. Sky Bet is offering 1/16 bets on Mahal winning his first WWE title while Orton is at 7/1 to retain and Paddy Power is pricing Mahal at 1/25 with Orton at 17/2. With those odds Mahal is the overwhelming favorite.
During his two stints with WWE, the 30-year-old Mahal has never won a title and it was only after his trade to Smackdown during the Superstar Shake-up that he was shot to the main event spotlight.
