Booby Roode is the longest reigning world champion in TNA history. He has held the title since November 2011 and is a quality performer in the ring. One thing that his title reign is lacking in my opinion is a memorable and epic feel to it. This is a reflection of TNA's lackluster booking in some areas.
Make no mistake, Roode has faced some great opponents including A. J. Styles, Jeff Hardy, Sting, James Storm and others but the "big fight" atmosphere has been lacking. Roode has gotten clean and decisive wins in recent months against Jeff Hardy, RVD, and Ken Anderson to establish himself as a credible champion.
If I were booking Roode, he would be a beast of a man who did everything and anything to keep his title, much like Edge did in WWE.
TNA is trying to make Bound For Glory their big night when James Storm and Bobby Roode have their next confrontation for the heavyweight championship. In the minds of TNA fans that is a "BIG FIGHT."
Roode will defend his title on July 7th at Destuination X against Austin Aries. This could be a great Summer feud if TNA books it correctly. We will have to wait and see.
