A report from CNBC released yesterday stated the company has already met with regulators in Colorado and Michigan regarding wagering on "high profile" WWE matches. On Thursday, the outlet updated its report to confirm that WWE has already registered with the Indiana Gaming Commission for such purposes as well. 

However, The Colorado Division of Gaming stated to CNBC that it is currently not considering legalized wagering on WWE matches. The organization also noted the state has a statute that prohibits gambling on predetermined contests such as awards shows.  

If the Michigan Gaming Control Board approves legalized wagering on WWE matches that information will be made public through the organization's Sports Wagering Catalog. 

WWE has hired the accounting firm, Ernest & Young, for the purposes of securing match results and demonstrating to regulators that gambling on predetermined contests can be done safely. The firm already works to secure results for predetermined contests such as the Academy Awards. 

WWE executives have reportedly proposed that in order to allow for legalized wagering, match results would be "locked in" months ahead of time and prevented from leaking to the public. The wrestlers involved would not be informed of a match's result until shortly before it takes place.
