Roderick Strong is a phenomenal wrestler. I could talk about that aspect of the Roddy experience, but instead I want to just talk about how one video package (see above) changed my entire outlook on Roddy. I can't not cheer for him after learning about his life story. Sure, he's now joined the New World Order, cutting cool heel promos designed to bury opponents of Shawn Michaels, but I'll always root for the guy. Blending reality with the fantasy of wrestling, Roddy became the most natural underdog babyface I've ever seen behind Daniel Bryan. There's just no way you can't look at that and feel a little welling up of emotion in that cold lump of coal where your heart should be. Because of that history, because of that perseverance in the face of adversity, because of that smile he gives to his newborn as he commits to winning a title just for them, that's what propels Roddy so far for me.
