So is Punk a face again?
 

Or would you classify him as a "tweener".

I wouldn't classify it at all. Cena kinda put it best on his Twitter, pretty much saying "people cheer for who they want to cheer for; the days for a definite heel/face dynamic are dead"

Punk is just punk. Depending on how you feel determines whether or not he's a face or heel to you.

While that thing Cena said is somewhat true, he's definitely being booked as a face now.

I see him as a tweener IMO. fans love him but he acts heelish.

Correction: IWC, anti-Cena, other smarks love him.....

To me they are both Faces, unless they are against each other.

Cena is clearly "The Rock" to CM Punk's "Stone Cold", one is the "corporate" babyface being nice to the kids, doing the chat shows etc, the other is the don't give a **** babyface. Unless they face each other they are both face.

The great thing about this angle is that Cena has become a lot less annoying, which could be a problem when the Rock comes back as its sort of all the ammo he had against him. But I'm sure Rock can come up with something.

Either way am loving the story right now and look forward to see where it goes.

He hasn't been heelish since that night in Vegas when he sat at the top of the ramp and shocked the world. He's been playing to the crowd, winning matches cleanly, and wrestling nothing but heels (besides Cena). I'd say he's a full out face, really.

Cena can babble about whatever he wants. There are faces and there are heels.

He's a face because "OMGZ He talks like we do!!!!!"

Punk won't be a face in Gertner's eyes until he starts talking about how boring Daniel Bryan is.

Mostly face, but will have his haters. (cena fans)

If I was asked to explain the concept of what a 'tweener' is, current Punk would be the perfect example.

CM Punk's a face. Not at first, but now, definitely.

I'd say tweener similar to Orton pre-draft but moving closer towards being a face now that he's away from having Cena in a feud.

I'd assume the main reason he decided to help Cena attack Del Rio was more of revenge from what Del Rio did to him on the ppv than actually caring about Cena. He even acknowledge what Del Rio did was smart and good unlike Cena who spazzed out for some reason on Monday even though he wasn't affected.

He's an anti-face very much like SCSA was back in the Attitude era only better.

He's not really an anti-face like Austin was...Punk plays up to the crowd much more, and smiles...

you watch your tongue lol! Stone Cold was the tits!

Debra was the tits. Stone Cold was more of the muscle.

Punk plays up to the crowd?

'tween her? I hardly know her.

He's definitely a face. There shouldn't even really be a question at this point.

Tweener with a tendancy to lean toward face.

What is there about him that is heelish? At all.

If you consider him a tweener, there has to be something.

He's been working face since MITB.

He's an Anti-Hero baby face.

I'm surprised the IWC isn't tweeting him " Um, could you work in the word "workrate" next time on Raw? I'm finding it hard to climax"

...You know...'cause saying the truth makes you a HEEL! If you shoot on something, it makes you a BAD GUY!

Speaking of "bad guys" I was kind of expecting Punk to mention Hall and Waltman at some point during the confrontation, asking where they are in all of this. Probably will at some point.

...maybe he won't have to ask where they are...

...maybe they'll just show up!

:shifty:

When Nash said the text said "Hey yo...big man...", I was thinking Scott Hall.

Are you even trying any more?

...wouldn't it really be something if it turned out Hall was the one who texted Nash?

LOL

BTW, watch this short video, and look at how Punk expresses himself and how he plays up to the crowd...definitely a face:

Whether hes a face/heel/tweener/doofus, it doesn't matter because they've made him completely irrelevant again with this Kevin Nash feud.

...so...are you saying that...

...Nash > Punk?

:cool:

Nash basically just stood there and was like "whatever" and called him a Waffle House short order cook..

If Punk beats Nash, big whoop, he beat a 52 year old that hasn't wrestled in almost a year.
If Nash wins, then Punk lost to a 52 year old that hasn't wrestled in almost a year.

Its a fucking no win scenario for Punk. Nash at least is getting paid.

Yeah, ignore the fact that it's the biggest storyline on Raw right now, taking precedence over the WWE title.

Hey guys, remember how irrelevant Austin was when he wrestled Vince McMahon? That was a total no-win situation for Stone Cold.
