Corey Graves made mention of the fact that Robert Roode is a tag team specialist elsewhere when Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode first came together as a tag team unit. This is obviously a reference to his time in TNA when he was a part of Beer Money with James Storm.
WWE has tried a variety of things with Bobby Roode, from making him a babyface and putting the US Championship on him, to having him grow a Rick Rude style mustache. None of that has worked but this incarnation seems to be working, at this point in time.

And this is why I personally believe that Roode is getting such a massive push in the Tag Team Division. Vince McMahon obviously wants to get things right with Robert Roode.
Expect Roode and Ziggler to be major players in the Tag Team Division.
