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.

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.

He's absolutely a fully fledged face, classic "anti-authority" face as of right now.

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

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

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

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...

What is there about him that is heelish? At all.
If you consider him a tweener, there has to be something. |

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"

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.

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

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.
