Okay so after watching Imact I finally realized why although I see that Robert Roode has talent that there is just something about him that bored the hell out of me. Than it came "SHUT UP!" and than it just hit me Robert Roode is just Randy Orton. I mean basically his promo against Christian Cage was the same exact thing Orton said to Batista, H and Flair.
I mean lets compare them. Both were in two very good stable (Evolution, Team Canada) both were standout members, both floundered after being out of the stable and both wrestle similarly. Both are boring, have limited mic skills and suck the life out of a feud it's remarkable how similar they are. Maybe the only difference is Orton has a flashier finishing move and comes from a wrestling family.
Has anyone had similar thoughts as me?

He's mid-card at best, in my opinion.
Maybe with some promo work and haircut and shave that would suit his gimmick better, he could stand out a bit more.

I think Orton has a lot more presence than Robert Roode.

I think Orton has a lot more presence than Robert Roode. That's like saying a large rock has more presence than a small one. |

Seriously though, Orton stimulates discussion. He's boring. No he's not, he's cold and calculating. It goes back and forth with people. Who cares about Robert Roode?

I'd rather see Roode then Orton. At least Roode isnt forced into the main event like Bore-ton is.

I'm too much of a Rude/Perfect mark to dislike Bobby Roode.

Neither is terribly exciting. however, has had more time to prove himself and failed. Roode still has potential in my opinion.

Roode is my favourite on TNA right now. Orton is my least favourite in WWE.....so I'm not really agreeing with you here on this one.
