WWE Royal Rumble 2021 is already getting some attention as it marks the beginning of a new PPV calendar year for WWE. It will take place on January 31 at the WWE ThunderDome at the Tropicana Field as per the latest information. WWE is likely to have a few options ready to start things for the Road to WrestleMania 37.
As the buzzes around Royal Rumble 2021 are on, early betting odds of the show are also available which are very interesting. In the Women’s Rumble match, it seems WWE could pull up some big surprises for the winner’s spots. A couple of unconventional winners are being listed to come out on top and they’re not a part of the current Women’s roster.

Favorites To Win Women’s Royal Rumble 2021 Match
Bovada is currently listing Rhea Ripley as the most likely winner for the women’s Royal Rumble 2021 match. She is currently having +700 odds by her name. This is certainly an interesting choice as it doesn’t necessarily require her main roster call-up to happen beforehand. So a shock value for the match could also be provided.
NXT Superstars have always been a part of the over-the-top-rope melee since the innovation of the match as filling up the 30 spots without them would be impossible. So Royal Rumble 2021 won’t be an exception as we can expect those surprising entrants throughout the match. Meanwhile, the presence of a former Raw Women’s Champion is also expected as the WrestleMania season begins on that night.
Daniel Bryan Favorite To Win WWE Royal Rumble 2021?
Ronda Rousey is standing second in terms of odds with a +750 score by her name. It makes sense as she could set up a huge WrestleMania match upon return by winning Royal Rumble 2021. Shayna Baszler is sitting in the #3 spot with +800 odds while Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks are both standing at +1,000 odds. The latter one has to lose her SmackDown Women’s Championship to take part in the match, though.
Now, these betting odds could certainly change as the company hasn’t even started building toward Royal Rumble 2021 yet. We’ll have to see how things will turn out in due course. Another big question heading into the show is that whether fans will be able to attend shows in person by that time. At present, WWE’s shows are packed by virtual fans on the ThunderDome screens.
