10 WWE Hell In A Cell 2017 Impulse Reactions
3. Bobby Pin
Or maybe they'll just replay this entire match under a working title of 'Inglorious B*stards?'
A versatile talent, Bobby Roode at least managed what fellow NXT graduate Shinsuke Nakamura couldn't - a broadly enjoyable pay-per-view clash with Dolph Ziggler.
'The Show Off's energy levels sadly seem as depleted as the audience's enthusiasm for their former favourite though. He is, at this point, the last visual victim of WWE's failed mid-2000s talent development programmes.
Serviceable but browbeaten and holding down a spot despite being completely lost, he no longer offers an attribute that justifies hype or attention beyond (ironically) decking himself all in black and entering to sparse silence in protest to those he deems less equipped.
Fortunately for his foes, he can just about still serve a purpose, and though Roode's pay-per-view debut was slightly below 'Glorious' expectations, it did at least emphasise his clinical proficiency in spades.
Bobby's an underrated babyface too, but whilst Ziggler's attacks didn't pile enough on for him to fight out from underneath of, the scintilating spinebuster and parade of roll-ups that led to the finish at least highlighted his wily side for the presumable continuation of their risible rivalry.
