Only 966 on Dolph Winning by DQ. I can easily seem them having Dolph beat Sheamus so he technically beat him and has some credit but not getting the title just yet.

The payout for choosing Sheamus is nothing, you just basically get your money back if you bet on him winning via pinfall. So, even though I think Sheamus is going to win, I'm going to vote for Dolph Ziggler via DQ, at least this way there is some kind of a pay out if I win.

Because he's odds on favourite to win via pinfall that's why...

Also your logic is stupid. You don't want to bet on someone with even odds because there's not much money to be made if he wins, so instead you would rather waste your money on a longshot in the hope of winning big when it's highly unlikely?

My logic isn't stupid, I just may aswell not even bet if I go for the apparently obvious outcome, I'd rather take my chances and see where it gets me. I've been a vBookie mod at another site before, I understand what you're doing but I would've made it 1.5/1 so as not to make the bet meaningless.

Just because he's evens to win doesn't make it meaningless, he's at evens for a reason.

Wrestling is rigged, this isn't a professional sport like Boxing. The outcomes are usually more predictable the system works better this way.
