Okay, so I only got into steadily watching TNA when they switched to Thursdays. I know a lot of the guys from ROH and of course WWE/WCW days. I don't know anything about Roode or Eric Young, for instance.
But, their storyline has been going on for some time, and is it just me, or does anyone else hate it? Each time I see those guys, I immediately flip the channel, almost as fast as when divas/TNA knockouts are on.
I don't give a crap about either Roode or Young. To me, it's a feud built around a loser and a schmuck. Each time they're on the screen, I can only think of how much better that precious time could've been spent. You could've given the X Division matches those minutes, and it could've been so much better.
Or even better, use that time to build up a feud with people that are actually interesting. Do something more with Senshi, or Shelley, or SOMEBODY not Roode, Young, VKM, or the knockouts.
BUTTTTT, that's just me and my opinion. So who else hates/doesn't care at all about the Roode/Young storyline, and who DOES like it, and why?

The angle makes me rather uncomfortable with the constant insisting of the "good guy" announcers for a woman to be battered and beaten.
Really...it was kind of weird to watch. "GET HER! GET HER!"
...
Ugh.

Ugh. Ditto, Wasn't Double J abusive to Eric when Planet Jarret was around? Damn it Russo, you made my brain hurt... |

"Does anyone else hate the Roode/Young storyline?"
DEAR LORD YES. Roode is like..a poor man's Ted Dibiase. Eric Young I can't stand. Why these two deserve so much TV time I'll never understand.

I kinda enjoyed it at first, before Young signed the contract. It wasn't necessarily the best use of tv time, but it was at least enjoyable and sometimes laugh worthy. At this point and time though, I just don't care.

I used to love Eric Young. Hell I'd even do that stupid "Don't Fire Eric" dance, but now I don't even care.

This Robert Roode/Eric Young storyline is just dumb. I really didn't even totally understand the story line in the first place.

Yes. Because Bobby Roode sucks.
