Heels can look strong and have personality with or without PG. The PG thing is just an excuse. Ric Flair, Ted DiBiase, Mr. Perfect, Rick Rude, etc. all were around when WWF was more PG than it is now and it didn't restrict them. Even in recent times- Jericho, Orton (circa '08-'09), SES Punk, Barrett, most recently Daniel Bryan... they were all good heels too. It's the person and his character that makes him a great heel. Just like Bobby Roode. He benefits from how he was booked, but it ain't like TNA's booking is THAT great. He was one of those they did get it right with, and fortunately for him because he took that role and lived up to it character-wise. If Jeff Jarrett was still running shyt and he'd been booked like they booked Roode, it would've been terrible cause it's Jeff Jarrett. So Roode deserves most of the credit.

Roode is that dude. Booking doesn't mean shyt if you don't have the right guy in place to pull it off. One of the top heels in the business in the last few years.
"He's only good because he's booked that way."
fukk outta here.

That shirt's crowded as fukk 
Roode is better than Punk ring-wise, but not gimmick wise. He has a good look but his mic skills are merely average. In fact, I'd put Roode's promo ability somewhere on par with Wade Barrett's...and Barrett isn't a phenomenal talker.
Ziggler > Roode
AmDrag > Roode
Orton > Roode
Jericho > Roode
Del Rio > Roode
Cena > Roode in terms of gimmick alone
Sandow > Roode
Hell, I'll say it.
James Storm > Booby Roode.

Honestly I think most people don't give him props, because he's a HEEL. He's not trying to be a cool heel or get over with the crowd. People are so use to heels relying on catch phrases and things like that they can't appreciate what Roode does.
Nah tsc is just fakkits. They actually think Orton is talented, I mean come on
These dudes talk all day about how trash wwe is meanwhile tna is on fire and we

You think you bad? You ain't bad!
That isn't true in the slightest.
the biggest heel up North right now is Lesnar. You think he's cool? The dude looks like he can't count past 15 and he has zero promo ability, but he's always been one of the most credible villains in WWE history..
He started riots in Philly. fukk you think?
