Do they take bets on what happens in the next episode of TV shows?

No way its gonna be as simple as "who wins between Roman and Madcap Moss?". Probably some incredibly vague or hard to predict shit like match times or if a certain wrestler will successfully perform a certain move or something

You can bet on WWE matches on vendors that are outside of the U.S, but the odds are shite and the most you can bet is a max of $20 on BetOnline for example.

If you bet on the WWE just consider it a stupid tax.

Isn't there a website based in Ireland that will take bets?

This.

It's basically going to be this.

For example, Roman vs Sami from last month. The odds were Roman -4000, Sami +200.

And the max you could bet was $50. So the max you could win betting on Roman was literally $1.

Im not a WWE fan so this doesnt affect me but if I was I would not participate in this. Its like watching DBZ and betting on who wins each fight. How would you even do that fairly?

That is absolute horseshit.

I have an idea. How about we place bets on which actors' characters will die in ensemble movies. Let's kill off the most popular superheroes and beloved character-actor characters because no one will see it coming and it'll be a swindle in the betting circles.

It'll revitalize wrestling for sure, but this is not how I'd like to see it done. This has the potential to ruin athletics and entertainment. <_<

Say a couple of wrestlers decide to do an improv and change the script. Right now they might get in trouble with the company or at worst fired. Now they might get killed.

Did they ever make celebrity death bets a legal thing?

I remember that being something talked about a few years ago.
