Post-PPV Update:

All of the pre-PPV betting odds held to form except for the John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar match. Lesnar was favored to win the main event, but Cena won via DQ, so Lesnar retained the WWE World Title anyways.

This affected infamous Reddit user Dolphins1925, who tweeted a prediction that "Brock Lesnar will defeat John Cena." This was the only "prediction" that Dolphins1925 missed on the night.

All of the title changes were predicted by the match betting odds, including A.J. Lee switching to a favorite over Paige on the day of the PPV once late money was bet.

Pre-PPV Update: Late money has been bet on Night of Champions PPV matches, shifting the odds of potential match outcomes. WWE has gone against the grain on recent PPVs, though.

- Late money pushed Cesaro from a slight underdog to a slight favorite to beat Sheamus in the U.S. Title match.

Even later money pushed Sheamus back to a favorite at -1200 over Cesaro.

- Goldust & Stardust are now strong favorites over The Usos in the Tag Title match after opening as slight favorites.

- The Miz is now a strong favorite to beat Dolph Ziggler in the IC Title match. Miz opened as a big underdog.

- In the Divas Title match, A.J. Lee is now a slight favorite. Paige opened as a slight favorite over both A.J. and Nikki Bella.

- Brock Lesnar has pushed out to a strong favorite at -1200 over John Cena in the main event. Randy Orton is also a stronger favorite over Chris Jericho as well as Rusev over Mark Henry.

Original Report Tuesday, September 16

International betting odds have already been released for the Night of Champions PPV on Sunday. Usually the odds are released toward the end of a PPV Week, but sportsbook 5Dimes released odds shortly after Raw.

Included are the following early favorites to win matches at Night of Champions. These will change as the PPV draws closer and on PPV Sunday...

- Rusev is the strongest favorite at -1,050 over Mark Henry. This follows WWE ending Raw with Mark Henry standing tall after giving a big speech about defending America at the PPV.

- Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton, and Dolph Ziggler are the next strongest favorites at -900 over John Cena, Chris Jericho, and The Miz, respectively.

- Goldust & Stardust are slight -430 favorites to beat The Usos in the Tag Title match.

- Cesaro is a slight -290 favorite to beat Sheamus in the U.S. Title match.

- Roman Reigns is a very slight -230 favorite over Seth Rollins, which follows Reigns getting a clean win over Rollins on Raw.

- In the Divas Title match, Paige is a -600 favorite over either Nikki Bella or A.J. Lee.
