Outlook - Roderick Strong has been on of the good talents in the Southern indies for a while and has recently emerged as a future sensation with exposure in NWA-TNA and a major push in ROH. Strong is just that and has become an excellent bruiser for the Generation Next stable. He will need to continue to gain experience and remedy some of his weaknesses before stepping up the ranks as a top dog on the indies. Strong has the physical tools and plenty of unique moves to help him get over to a small degree. Blandness is his greatest setback, but he's shown improvement in a short time and is probably someone to watch.
