Yes, you can find 2022 WrestleMania odds with a quick search on the internet.
But, no, you won’t find the odds with a search at any of the 18 regulated sportsbooks in Iowa. The two-night WrestleMania 38 card Saturday and Sunday should be fun, but too many of the result details have been squared away to risk money on. Frankly, it’s never going to be a reliable destination for bets.
It’s worth emphasizing: If you’re using an unregulated, off-shore sportsbook for pro wrestling bets, you’re gambling in two ways. It’s hard, if not impossible, for regulators to help customers if a company shuts down its site or doesn’t pay out.
Let’s help you find something safe that doesn’t cost anything.
DraftKings has a better option than 2022 WrestleMania odds
DraftKings established an exclusive partnership with the WWE one year ago, so you have a safer alternative to those dubious internet 2022 WrestleMania odds. The DraftKings pool is a free way to win contest money.
Those contest questions are available at the Iowa version of DraftKings because you aren’t risking money on the WWE outcomes.
And, get this: DraftKings’ free pool games are available in states that don’t allow sports betting yet. You can sign up for DraftKings anywhere, you just can’t deposit money into an account unless the state allows online sports bets. In Iowa, of course, you can sign up for the free 2022 WrestleMania contest, then make a deposit if you want to bet on other sports, including the Final Four this weekend.

WWE has some Iowa stops after WrestleMania
WrestleMania sets the stage for a new WWE calendar year and the schedule includes a couple of Iowa stops this spring. The links have ticket information.
- WWE Sunday Stunner comes to the Alliant Energy PowerHouse at 7 p.m. Sunday, May 22, in Cedar Rapids. Featured superstars are subject to change, but WWE lists Reigns, Flair, McIntyre, Banks, Kingston and Big E among the performers at the moment. Ettore “Big E” Ewen is a former defensive lineman for the University of Iowa. He suffered a serious neck injury during a March 11 episode of SmackDown, so his recovery may dictate that appearance.
- Eight days later, Monday Night Raw comes to Wells Fargo Arena at 6:30 p.m. Monday, May 30 (Memorial Day) in Des Moines. Lynch, Finn Balor, Belair, Rollins, Owens and Ripley are the featured superstars. Rollins (Colby Daniel Lopez) grew up in Buffalo, IA and graduated from Davenport West High School in 2004.
