Few things:

You are way over the Hit and Expertise cap. You are gemmed wrong ( you have 2x 16 Hit gems). You have AP Gems in your gear. You are Crit gem'd which is also wrong. Regem your Strength, Crit, AP and Hit Gems into ArP Gems (2 of them Pusissant Twilight Opals for the Meta bonus).

Your rotation is also wrong.

A good rotation is:

Rend, MS, Slam, Slam, SD (I proc'd and sufficient rage, OP.... rinse and repeat. Throw in some HS with a healthy rage pool of above 70 Rage.

If you have a good Axe, replace it with your Ironsoul. Storm Edge, Cryptfiends Bite, Betrayer... even Wraith Spear are some of the better choices over the Iron Soul.

EDIT: Another huge mistake I see. You are spec'd into Deflection... You have 5 points into it... Put the points into Imp Heroic Strike. If possible put one point into Anger Management.
