He is perhaps best known for his 12-year tenure for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), from 2004 to 2016, under the ring name Bobby Roode. After debuting for TNA as part of Team Canada in 2004, Roode won the NWA World Tag Team Champion with Eric Young. After a singles run following the team’s breakup, he formed a tag team with James Storm as Beer Money, Inc. Together with Storm, he is a six-time TNA World Tag Team Champion and they are the longest reigning champions in TNA history.

Roode eventually became a two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion, with his first reign being the longest reign in the company’s history at 256 days. In his later years with the company, Roode also won the World Tag Team Championship with Austin Aries and was a one-time TNA King of the Mountain Champion.

Roode signed with WWE in 2016 and began his career in their development territory NXT, where he was a one-time NXT Champion prior to his main roster call-up. Roode debuted on SmackDown in August 2017, winning the United States Championship in January 2018, his first championship on the main roster. He transferred to Raw in April and won the Raw Tag Team Championship with partner Chad Gable in December, followed by the 24/7 Championship in May 2019, and another Raw Tag Team Championship with partner Dolph Ziggler in September 2019.
