A Glorious addition to WWE

Much like Eric Young, Bobby Roode also debuted for TNA Wrestling in 2004 in his mid-20's and worked his way up to becoming one of the promotion's top stars.

Bobby was a two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion and an 8 time Tag Team Champion.

By the time Bobby parted ways with Impact in 2016, he had pretty accomplished everything he could work for the group. Again much like Eric, had been a couple of years earlier, Roode likely wouldn't have been hired to the company due to his age, which was just a few weeks shy of turning 39 before his signed his WWE contract.

Bobby would go onto be a major player for NXT, becoming the NXT Champion and having an impressive win/loss record. He debuted on the main roster on the post-2017 SummerSlam tapings, and although he has been WWE United States Champion, he seems to be lost in the shuffle today. Hopefully, that and a heel turn will change things.
