Hell yeah! Nimrod. Love it. I loved the issues where the X-Men fought him back in the 80s... then in the 90s when Cable and X-Force took him out and prevented him from coming fully online... then in Second Coming when X-Force went into the future to stop Bastion from sending Nimrods back... and then in DoX/HoX when Apocalypse fought the Nimrods... basically, I'm a sucker for mutants fighting Nimrod. I believe Cable even fought him in a future timeline at the very beginning of the Past Fears arc awhile back, saving a mutant child from him.
Going by the RoX promo shot...we knew he would show up but I didn't think it would be this soon.

I eye-rolled so hard, I personally have always hated the idea of taking an established character identity then ridding them of everything that makes them that character in the first place. I always wonder then, what's the point but this is an original vision and we just kinda have to wait to see how things play out.
