Night of Champions 2023: Winners revealed from matches set for WWE PLE

Bengaluru, May 27: WWE's 10-year deal with Saudi Arabia continues through the Night of Champions 2023 edition set for tonight at the Jeddah Superdome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. An extravaganza is expected, featuring top superstars from Raw and SmackDown.

The WWE premium live event in Saudi Arabia has already set a new record as the fastest-selling event in the history of the company. WWE head honcho Triple H has extended his gratitude to the King and Royal Prince of Saudi for the accomplishment.

Now, it's WWE's turn to entertain passionate Saudi Arabia fans with some action-packed matches. In the expected main event of Night of Champions, Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa will look forward to bringing back the undisputed tag team titles to The Bloodline.

As revealed by the latest betting odds, courtesy of BetOnline, the tag titles should not change hands. The champions, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens (-700) are long ahead of Roman and Sikoa (+400) to retain the championships.

In another co-main-event of Night of Champions 2023, Seth Rollins is the expected favorite (-1000) to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match against AJ Styles (+500). Since the announcement of the title tournament, Rollins has been favored to win.

Besides, WWE Triple H announced that the World Heavyweight Championship belt will be an exclusive property of the Raw brand. Rollins, being a member of the red brand almost guarantees this title win.

Styles winning the title would create further complications for the WWE since he's on the SmackDown side where Roman Reigns already is the resident champion with the Undisputed WWE Universal Title.

In the third main-event contender match for Night of Champions, Cody Rhodes is the underdog (+120) sporting a kayfabe "broken arm" despite which he will wrestle the favorite, Brock Lesnar (-160).

The Beast Incarnate should win this encounter to settle the score with Rhodes who already has victory over him at Backlash from earlier this month in Puerto Rico. Thereafter, Lesnar vs. Rhodes rubber match could go down at SummerSlam.

WWE Raw Women's Championship will also be on the line with Bianca Belair defending her title against Asuka in a WrestleMania rematch. Belair (-200) is still the odds-on favorite to retain against the Empress of Tomorrow (+150).

In the other Women's Title Match, the blue brand title-holder Rhea Ripley is a mammoth favorite (-10000) to retain against Natalya Neidhart (+1000). Fans are already unhappy with a jobber like Nattie's involvement in the match as the challenger.

In the third Women's Division match which is a dream bout, WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus (+200) is likely to come up short against Becky Lynch (-300). However, the feud is expected to continue through SummerSlam.

Furthermore, the WWE Intercontinental Champion GUNTHER (-5000) is another no-brainer favorite to continue with his historic title reign against the low-carder Mustafa Ali (+1000). Ali, a Muslim WWE Superstar, got the title shot just because Night of Champions is emanating from Saudi Arabia.
