Some wrestlers can join for the simple fact that they support the straight edge lifestyle.

You could book it like, CM Punk came to Jeff and offered him help when everyone, including his brother, had abandoned him. It'd work if Punk and Hardy then went on as a heelish Straight-Edge tag team with a brief Tag Title run. Matt Hardy could try to snap some sense into him for a few months before the jealousy between Punk and Hardy came to a head with a Jeff Hardy face-turn.
