WWE‘s much beloved Royal Rumble event is starting in just a few hours. As is the case with any event – whether predetermined or otherwise – betting odds do change regularly up until the very moment said event takes place and Royal Rumble 2023 has been no different (you can find our previous article on Royal Rumble betting odds here for comparison). Let’s take a look at the current favorites for the two Royal Rumble matches set to be showcased later tonight.

Men’s Royal Rumble
- Cody Rhodes (4/7)
- Sami Zayn (7/4)
- The Rock (3/1)
Despite reports that The Rock is not physically ready for Royal Rumble, he has crept into the top three favorites. Interestingly, WWE Hall of Fame member, Stone Cold Steve Austin, is the fourth favorite with distant odds of 6/1. However, it is unlikely that Austin makes an appearance in the Royal Rumble. The two favorites, Cody Rhodes and Sami Zayn respectively, are certainly the two most likely to win the match and their odds reflect that.
Women’s Royal Rumble
- Rhea Ripley (2/5)
- Becky Lynch (10/3)
- Asuka (11/1)
Rhea Ripley comes in ahead of former Royal Rumble match winners Becky Lynch and Asuka as the favorite ahead of this year’s women’s Royal Rumble match. Though either Asuka or Becky Lynch would be worthy winners, it does appear to be Rhea Ripley’s time – with her on-screen relationship and chemistry with Dominik Mysterio and the rest of the Judgement Day (Finn Balor & Damian Priest) appearing to endear her to the WWE audience.
