Never got to see this story/feud play out, but without knowing all of the context... this is an incredible verbal-battle, with maybe some possible truths coming out?? Or at the very least, they're both speaking from a place that hurts, and their emotions are geniune. Bobby's last line is mind blowing, and gut wrenching. Well done. That's how a feud rises to the boiling point.
Bobby roode is their HHH at the time he is just as talented in the ring the difference is this James storm is nowere near Shawn Michaels as far as a promo or a wrestler the Shawn Michaels HHH had so many twist and turns and Michaels getting hurt with the neck injury made the intrigue bigger the night he came back to start his second act of his career and it was better than act one HBK won the title on more than one occasion for some reason storm never won the title again after he lost it to roode in Georgia
"Where I come from family and friends still need something." Such a great line; this feels like something you'd say in southern territory wrestling back in the day.
Best feud, had much more potential! Bobby Roode - greatest champion from the last 10 years, period! Those 2 were some of the top talents of their generation!
Austin Aries the longest reigning X Division Champion in TNA history and the only 2 time former ROH World Champion. He's a main event waiting to happen.
This confrontation with Roode and Storm is exactly like the confrontation with H and Shawn Michaels and H used the term 'that's a load of crap' to Shawn Michaels in talking about the past with Degeneration X like Roode and Storm bring up Beer Money.
Yeah. Shane was introduced a lot differently; he started off as a stooge during Vince's feud with Austin. Eventually stepped in the ring but besides many memorable stunts (titan trons jumps and coast to coasts) they kept his major title wins to european.
Storm and Roode are very similiar to Michaels and HHH. Beer Money was like DX. And this feud is similiar. I watched many impacts promo but that was best ever promo in TNA history.
This is a masterclass of how to make a wrestling promo in the modern-era, WWE now treats Bobby Roode like a jobber and James Storm is being a prime-time player on NWA Powerrr
Yeah this feud was great and went a long way in establishing both guys as main eventers in TNA. It really mirrors the rivalry between Triple H and Shawn Michaels and I wish that Storm had gotten to win the World Title again at some point because his first reign was far too short even though I do understand why it was done that way since it set Roode up to be the biggest heel in the company and we got this whole feud to boot.
I think he means gimmick wise, Bobby Roode is like HHH. I always called him Canadian H since they really are similar. And HHH was busting his ass pretty much until he did marry Steph McMahon in 2003. He won like two matches in 1996 and 1997 combined. Took him three years (1995-1998) to win his first IC title. Its not like HHH has had the book ever since marrying Steph either. If he did we would know it (*cough JarrettinTNA'sfirstthreeyears cough*)

It was the best time in tna 👌😃
It was a great feud
One of the greatest moments in TNA history.
💯%
5:04 *FRIENDS?!? CUT THE BULLSHIT!!!* Bobby Roode is the best at being pissed off😂😭😭
This promo is almost better than wrestlemania 33 itself
kingCJ that’s not hard though. Mania 33 was terrible
anything is better then wrestlemania 33
ghost rider WrestleMania 33 was a good show ?
Man oh man, great promo but am i the only one who thinks that they resemble triple h and shawn michaels a bit?
pharoah C That's a good ass comparison
pharoah C I've noticed that since Beer money were formed
Shawn Michaels vs Marty Janetty?
I felt like beer money is the tna version of dx
No, Roode seems to act like H with the belt and Storm seems to act like Shawn Michaels.
Bobby Roode reminds me of HHH while James Storm reminds me of Shawn Michaels.I mean that as a compliment.
They literally were them of TNA
Mannnnnnn u got that right 💯
Mannnnnnn u got that right💯
One of the best Rivalries in the company
Bobby Roode vs James Storm
Jay Briscoe vs Adam Cole
Kenny Omega vs Okada
Triple H vs Shawn Michaels
my all time favorite rivalries
AJ Styles vs Christopher Daniels vs Samoa Joe
Rickey Steamboat vs Macho Man Randy Savage
Macho Man vs Diamond Dallas Page
My favorites
Its amazing to see guys that deserve the spot the most, to share it on a big ppv like lockdown!
The best face off I've seen in 10 years. Roode is Gold on the mic and these two have charisma.
One Of The Greatest Tag Team In TNA History
James Storm and Bobby Roode are TNA legends.
What Roode said at the End took this thing to a whole new Level
This rivalry was so intense
This was TNA's version of HHH and HBK
Bobby Roode is more talented than HHH.
HHH vs Roode at WrestleMania
Bobby roode is their HHH at the time he is just as talented in the ring the difference is this James storm is nowere near Shawn Michaels as far as a promo or a wrestler the Shawn Michaels HHH had so many twist and turns and Michaels getting hurt with the neck injury made the intrigue bigger the night he came back to start his second act of his career and it was better than act one HBK won the title on more than one occasion for some reason storm never won the title again after he lost it to roode in Georgia
HELL YEAH BRO TILL THIS DAY
Wrestling wise HHH and Bobby Roode are basically on par as top tier wrestlers. Bobby's only strength over HHH in my opinion are his mic skills.
Nelson Kelly haha WWE will never allow that type of change
Best tna segment in history
izeyah richardson izeyahrichardson
"Where I come from family and friends still need something."
Such a great line; this feels like something you'd say in southern territory wrestling back in the day.
I miss this TNA. Love James Storm
Deadliest Chic87 Deailestchic
This was the best feud in tna history imo , and it reminds me a lot of the triple h -hbk feud
this is one of the greatest face offs in wrestling history.
This was a damn good rivalry and I loved this promo!
Imagine how they must have been after they went to the back
Emotionally gutted, no doubt.
This is the best promo in the last fuckin 5 years. Roode and Storm are sick on the mic it's awesome.
Bobby Roode- HHH
James Storm- Shawn Michaels
of TNA Wrestling
The biggest match in the careers of champion Bobby roode and James Storm
Amazing feud and story telling.
one of the best showdown before a ppv i have seen after a long time,roode vs storm cant wait man
I didn't expect much from this promo, but this was mind-blowing.
R.I.P Beer Money
2007_2012
Sorry about your dam luck
Same here, reminds me of the time HBK and HHH hated each other in late 2002, and had an amazing feud.
Yes
I've watched this promo about ten times since Thursday and I still get goosebumps every time...
Best feud, had much more potential! Bobby Roode - greatest champion from the last 10 years, period! Those 2 were some of the top talents of their generation!
Promo of the year,for sure.Promo of the decade,very possibly!
CM Punk vs John Cena
Edge vs Jeff Hardy
Adam Cole vs Kyle O’Reily
James Storm vs Bobby Roode
Cody vs Kenny Omega
My favorite rivalries
edge vs john cena randy orton vs john cena randy orton vs batista randy orton vs triple h rock vs stone cold lita vs trish stratus

izeyah richardson izeyahrichardon
one of the most intense promos I have ever seen in TNA...
if storm and roode can have a great match on impact then imagine what theyll do at lockdown...cant wait
I like how WWE has buried Bobby Roode and Samoa Joe down at the bottom
james storm and bobby rhoode are great together if there team or fued there great and storms is my favorite wrestler today he is the best
storm should win the title in lockdown that year
Best TNA promo in years, best feud in years and the only reason to watch Lockdown Sunday
Austin Aries the longest reigning X Division Champion in TNA history and the only 2 time former ROH World Champion. He's a main event waiting to happen.
This confrontation with Roode and Storm is exactly like the confrontation with H and Shawn Michaels and H used the term 'that's a load of crap' to Shawn Michaels in talking about the past with Degeneration X like Roode and Storm bring up Beer Money.
Good stuff. Did the camera cut away from roode kicking the belt though at 7.40 ish?
the intensity in this promo was unbelievable.great work from two real superstars
Yeah. Shane was introduced a lot differently; he started off as a stooge during Vince's feud with Austin. Eventually stepped in the ring but besides many memorable stunts (titan trons jumps and coast to coasts) they kept his major title wins to european.
One hell of a promo, can't wait for their match!
And THIS is how you build up a World Championship Match. Helluva promo :D
My favorite two of all time legendary
James storm just keeps getting better and better
I havent watched TNA in about 2 years but i had to watch this video, looks like a very good feud
I'm shocked, in a nice way. This promo felt like James and Bobby are about damn near set on killing each other. Now this, TNA needs more of.
Storm and Roode are very similiar to Michaels and HHH. Beer Money was like DX. And this feud is similiar. I watched many impacts promo but that was best ever promo in TNA history.
Anybody like me who has watched James Storm and Bobby roode the two men who were the cornerstone of the TNA organization
best rivalry in all of wrestling second to Adam Cole and Jay Briscoe
What a Promo ❤
both deserve to be wwe and world heavy weight champion in 2025
i heard tna and spike tv had a meeting about airing a new tna show on spike.i hope they show tv title matches and more knockout matches on it.
Excellent promo from both guys.
Now I really want to see this match
Yeah because AJ Styles, Austin Aries, Kaz and Daniels deserve to have that chanted at them
now that was both uncalled for and one hell of a way to set up the world title match
Awesome moment
One great promo
This is a masterclass of how to make a wrestling promo in the modern-era, WWE now treats Bobby Roode like a jobber and James Storm is being a prime-time player on NWA Powerrr
IT IS ON THIS SUNDAY
Completely agree. They're trying too hard to be like WWE, I think, when I've liked more of their original stuff way more.
Bobby Roode was a Triple H of TNA
Damm this promo was fucking intense can't wait for lockdown :D
Bobby Bobby Bobby!!!!!!!! Yyyyyeeeeerrrrrr!!!!! Blap blap blap!!!!
This is the biggest feud in TNA right now, just enjoy it
These are 2 guys in TNA that LOOK like "Stars"
That's how you end a go home show!
Thank you
Lethal Lockdown even with the Bischoff mess would still be alot of fun to watch
mann i miss this era so much..
i really hope tna doesnt give up on roode and storm like they did with aj styles and joe.
bobby roode = evolution triple h
james storm = shawn michaels/steve austin
FINALLY A GOOD PROMO NO NOT GOOD AWESOME PROMO
Roode.. My god.
8:37
That right there is professional wrestling. Two guys that want to kill eachother and we're left to to sit back and watch it happen.
Awesome.
LOL the end
damn good promo ...this makes me want to actually order the ppv!
Yeah this feud was great and went a long way in establishing both guys as main eventers in TNA. It really mirrors the rivalry between Triple H and Shawn Michaels and I wish that Storm had gotten to win the World Title again at some point because his first reign was far too short even though I do understand why it was done that way since it set Roode up to be the biggest heel in the company and we got this whole feud to boot.
best promo even better than the WWE ones
Greatest TNA tag team Beer Money
This was EPIC great job by TNA in my opinion. I hope the match lives up to the hype
very good promo
TNA is the future of Professional Wrestling.
Anyone watching this from leathal lockdown in 2021?
damn this is AWESOME!
he said 43 specifically but i understand.whats your opinion btw?
TNA will never be the same.
What happened to TNA?
Hogan and bischoff u know
then they can use the intensity from lockdown and have the final showdown at slammiversary.
I'm from Nashville
i gotta say i liked this
to be honest i dont even care what anderson does anymore,he should be tv champion.
wow - so much better than the hogan vs. bischoff bullshit.
just a great segment of two great athletes and tna originals!
you think so? Just friendship? I don't think so. It's no secret The Kliq were McMahon golden sons and they had creative control to certain extent.
I think he means gimmick wise, Bobby Roode is like HHH. I always called him Canadian H since they really are similar. And HHH was busting his ass pretty much until he did marry Steph McMahon in 2003. He won like two matches in 1996 and 1997 combined. Took him three years (1995-1998) to win his first IC title. Its not like HHH has had the book ever since marrying Steph either. If he did we would know it (*cough JarrettinTNA'sfirstthreeyears cough*)
I think it makes the feud more personnal if Bobby Roode destroyed James Storm's chances at becoming champion.
