I think Sting is just as stale as Cena.
He's this abomination of character traits he's amassed over the years that do not work when mixed together at all and make him come across like a massive tool.
And just like Cena he dresses like an idiot. <_<
I don't think Sting is "burying" Roode, in that I don't think it's his choice to go out there and pick up clean wins over the Champion, but the BOOKING is harming Roode.
It would be one thing if Roode hadn't already beaten Sting, but he has!
Angle and Anderson are both indeed much better choices, and Angle would bring a ton of symmetry to the Roode reign considering how the heel turn began.
