The current United States Champion is destined for a glorious career in the WWE. Bobby Roode was handpicked by Triple H to be the face of NXT during his time on the developmental brand, and Roode is quite used to being the face of a promotion.

From his entrance to his attire and his attitude as a WWE Superstar, Bobby Roode was tailor-made to be a world champion. In a short span of time, Roode has quickly ascended to become one of the top faces on SmackDown Live and has taken on all-comers so far.

Roode’s work as a heel was exceptional in the past, and the Superstar could really thrive working with the likes of AJ Styles. Considering WWE is quickly running out of opponents for AJ, we may very well see both the Superstars face each other for the WWE Championship in the near future.
