Yes, I can say nobody cared about Super Eric, because they obviously didn’t which is why they had Angle basically kill him off. Roode received more heat than most heels in TNA, while he was feuding with Booker, Young, and Brooks. They put him over Jarrett, in Jarrett’s 1st match back, who at the time was unheard of; he's one of the few characters in the company that has always been pretty protected. I know it's an internet cliché to look at the tag team, see the best guy in the team and automatically believe the one with lesser talented is being carried, that doesn't make the cliché right. Storm is better than Roode, no doubt it, but that doesn't mean Roode is being carried. Shelley is better than Sabin, is Saben carried? The thing is people don’t know what the fuck, carrying means. People wanting Storm to go solo, is simple, Storm is awesome, that doesn’t make Roode bad.
