The naughty CM Punk thread

it makes him a very naughty boy

Punk's character is awesome. He's still not a full heel in my eyes, as he doesn't align hmiself with other heels or cut heel promos on the WWE universe, he's still embracing their SUPPORT and seems angry when Jerry made that claim. But his character has turned into a more selfish attention-seeking character, I think it might eventually turn into an anti-hero type character which I hope. I think him hitting Jerry will eventually help him turn full heel, there's no way the casual fans will keep cheering Punk when he does act like this. The male fans will.

I think he is an anti-hero type character right now after SummerSlam I hope that keep that way though.

CM Punk is settled firmly into the tweener category. Similar to the SCSA character, he's going to act heel (as Crayo says, an anti-hero type), but his natural charisma and ability will still get him cheered. Add to that the fact that he's facing off against Cena (who is still in a definite love/hate relationship with the WWE Universe) and you've got a character dynamic that, to the die-hard wrestling fan, that is very reminiscent of the Rock-Austin feud in 2001 (I can hear people scrambling now....the one thing missing from Punk-Cena is the mainstream attention due to the widespread popularity of WWE at the time; look at the character dynamic, not your faded memories of Rocky and Stone Cold and how awesome the AE was and how WWE sucks now and yadda, yadda, yadda).

There's no need to turn Punk fully heel. Just let Punk be Punk.

Alternatively, and despite what a lot of the IWC screams about, there's no need to turn Cena heel. Just let Cena be Cena.

They're both heroic and unlikable in their own ways. This merits no manipulation by WWE. Just let the audience do what the audience will do. That's what made the storylines of the past great and what is missing from the modern WWE.

I agree with it all apart from the second to last paragraph. I don't think we should just let Cena be Cena as that has been done to death. Think of the amount Punk has changed in his 7 years in WWE compared to how Cena has. Punk has had numerous different looks, Cena has stuck with these disgusting colourful shirts, (with the exception of a few earlier ones) his god awful haircut, his stale character. It doesn't fuss me that he stays as the controversial guy that he is just now - I wouldn't turn him heel either - but he could definitely do with a few subtle changes at least.

Ugh, I used the word 'naughty' to OP this thread. How absurdly porn star of me.

Was going to point that out with a naughty picture of CM Punk in a second :upset:

I want to be kicked in the head by him

Yeah, I was expecting something way different when I clicked the title.

I just wonder how much of that is actually Cena and how much of it is what Vince and Co. have told him to be, act, and do. Cena strikes me as a solid company man who will basically do what he's told so long as he can stomach it. It's easy to go out there and say "baloney, fudge, and mustard" and play nice with the kiddies. And it makes him a lot of money. I have to wonder how the person John Felix Anthony Cena would actually act if he were allowed to be who he is.

I think we see that when he cuts promos against CM Punk. And if that's the case, I do think letting Cena be completely in control of his own character is a good idea.

Of course, if his kid-friendly, Superman-esque character is the real John Cena, then all of that is for naught and he needs to be changed by force.

Dr Thuganomics is reportedly more close to Cena's real life personality.
