#9 Robert Roode

Former Impact Wrestling star Bobby Roode got off to a hot start in WWE, making a tremendous impact in NXT, and establishing himself as a top star on the Wednesday night brand.

The decision was made after a short run in NXT to have Bobby Roode debut on the main roster in WWE, and his debut was indeed "glorious." Boasting an amazing entrance and charisma akin to Ric Flair, Roode was poised for great success on the main roster.

However, for reasons not quite known, Bobby Roode has seen his push in WWE drastically halted, and he is yet another NXT alumnus struggling for TV time on a weekly basis.

WWE attempted to freshen up Roode by slapping a mustache on him and having him turn heel, but the new "Robert Roode" has yet to take off on the main roster and is floundering once again.

Roode has a great look and persona that resonated well with NXT fans, and he could return to the brand in a main event capacity to help establish younger talents.
