10 Kick-Ass WWE Moments We Can’t Wait To See

8. Bobby Roode's Glorious Main Roster Debut

At 39 years old, the ship has sailed on Bobby Roode being introduced as a hungry young lion looking to make a mark on the WWE landscape. When he is inevitably introduced to shows like Raw and SmackDown, the former TNA man must be presented as someone who felt a call up was long overdue.

Much of the magic will come from Roode's entrance music, because fans will respond in kind when 'Glorious' begins blasting over the PA system; this is actually similar in appeal to Shinsuke Nakamura's music, and Roode's tune acts as another track that WWE fans just appear to really dig singing along to.

Oddly, there's no reason why Roode couldn't be cast as an out-there babyface. He's bound to hear mass cheers anyway.

Seeing someone who has worked so hard to grab WWE's attention make that initial splash on one of the top shows will be excellent for Bobby Roode's long time fans and the man himself. Nobody can argue that he doesn't deserve it.
