Bobby Roode should get called up to the main roster tomorrow on the strength of his entrance alone.

OK, that might be a bit of an overstatement, but Roode’s descending from the heavens to an entrance theme of “Glorious” was just that: glorious. Fans sang along with his theme, serenading him down to ringside. Roode basically was a star before the match began.

Fortunately, Roode is a polished, accomplished veteran whose skills will not be overshadowed by an awesome entrance, as we saw in the ensuing match. But man alive, that was a fun introduction for a wrestler.
