Well, first, you can't make a comeback if you were never on top to begin with. Rune of Repulsion has been inferior to the Valor Medal and Repelling Charge since 3.0.
Which will be superior for general use in 3.2 will depend upon what your gear looks like. The approximate ratio to shoot for when optimizing avoidance is -
2.4 defense rating : 1.8 dodge rating : 1 parry rating
Typically, you're not going to be looking for a lot of extra parry rating in most gearsets, although it is certainly possible. Thus you'll likely gain more from having the Furnace Stone / Valor Medal / Repelling Charge in your bags than the Rune of Repulsion for general use. Then again, if your gear is dodge rating-heavy and you have the Monarch Crab in one trinket slot... yeah, RoR is looking much better.
As for the procs, the comparison becomes (45.2 dodge or parry = 1% pre-DR) -
Rune of Repulsion - 8.3% parry
Valor Medal - 7.4% dodge
Furnace Stone - 7084 armor after talents and healer buff, variable mitigation - ~5% damage reduction at T8 levels.
Repelling Charge - +3025 health for 15 secs
Valor Medal and Rune of Repulsion will come out fairly close in actual avoidance when used as a panic button. If you're only using one, I wouldn't advise deciding between them based on the proc.

now if u put it like this can i ask u this: if i am using
Heart of Iron
as my panic button what do YOU think is better and a secend Trinket or secend panic button?
Rune of Repulsion
or
Furnace Stone
or
Valor Medal of the First War
?
from my expirance when i used in naxx 25 (look like ages ago...) both dodge and parry trinkets when i used them both at the same time for that duration i didn't get any hit... all were dodge or parry...

In that case, using two dodge avoidance procs at the same time is going to suffer from severe DR, which is why I made the point about the Monarch Crab (which has a dodge proc as well).
I'd tend to favor either the RoR or the Furnace Stone in that case, depending on the dodge/parry balance on my gear in normal circumstances. You'll gain more overall mitigation/avoidance when you hit the panic button.
