Robert Roode, or Wobert Woobe to his friends seems to be an ok Wrestler to me, but I notice he also seems to garner quite a bit of hate as well. What side do you happen to be on?

Thumbs up... but I'm surprised that nobody has complained about him using the Perfect-plex (Fisherman's Suplex) yet.

I like him alot. He reminds me of combination of Curt Hennig and Lance Storm.

When I was watching reruns of the AWA, I could have sworn Roode lifted most of his material from a young Curt Hennig. Their movements are nearly identical.

Thumbs in the middle. He's decent, but I neither flock to the show to see him, nor turn the channel when he's on.

He's okay, but not great IMHO. He seems stuck in the mid-card.

Thumbs in the middle. He's not one of my favs, but I'd rather see him get his than just flat-out leave.

He's ok, but I think TNA tried to push him too hard. He went from losing to Eric Young to the main event, which didn't work. He needs to win some decent matches before anyone will buy him as a credible threat. One thing I definitely like about him is that he's really the only pure heel in TNA, which makes him stand out.

He needs to win some decent matches before anyone will buy him as a credible threat. Roode vs. Jarrett? Roode's brushed up on his ring-work & his promos are coming along nicely. He can do the "difficult" things with ease... But his bad 1980s perm & Terry Taylor ring-robe have GOT to go! Consider this, Roode is currently the most over member of the former Team Canada. Never would've thought that possible back when the team were still around.

Thumbs down. He cuts disjointed promos only saved by his ability to emote, and he's an amalgam of gimmicks done by people a hell of a lot more entertaining than him. Also the booking of his character has made little to no sense.

Thumbs Down...OMG BATISTA BOMB!
Eh, he's okay I guess, but very generic. Him being a jerky asshole, doesn't make him any better. He just lacks something. Good promo work and all, but he really sucks.
Just average, everything about him is average.
I wish James Storm was in his spot

Big, huge, super, mega thumbs up. One of my favorite parts of TNA right now. His promos are maybe my favorite in the company, and he just goes out there and has solid match after solid match. Roode is great.

I think Roode is doing alright. In the land where the top heels are jokesters and comedians, Roode is a good old fashioned heel. He gets the thumbs up.

Rode is so much better now than he has ever been. Not that he was ever much, but now I notice him.
