DISCUSSION - CM Punk should become the leader of an nWo-sized stable that promotes...

The straight edge lifestyle and philosophy. Just as was the case with the nWo, it would be so 'badass', that it would be cool.....cool to the point where kids/fans would eventually dig it up because they "aren't supposed to want to" (if that makes sense). I would absolutely love it if CM Punk became the leader of an nWo-sized stable that promoted the straight edge lifestyle and philosophy. As was the case with Hollywood Hogan, make CM Punk the #1 guy. Somehow someway, make him a UNIFIED WWE/World champion in the not-so-distant future. Have CM Punk appear on both shows and have him have 'stable mates/followers' on both shows. The biggest stars in the company all "symbolized" something extremely significant in our society. Guys like Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, Bret Hart, and Randy Savage all symbolized "the good guy" that were honorable, etc. Guys like Austin, The Rock, etc 'symbolized' the cocky badass that didn't take shit from no one. While I realize that all these guys symbolized these things as faces, I think it would be GREAT if Punk, as a heel, and the clear cut #1 guy in the company, became a SYMBOL for the straight edge life style.

Here is what else would be achieved with an angle life this:

Guys with crappy or 'generic' gimmicks that aren't doing much in the WWE (i.e. Festus), can join the 'Straight Edge' stable and become relevant by association
Just as we saw during the attitude era with the Corporation, each and every segment on televised shows can mean "that much more" due to a representative of 'Straight Edge' being in a match.
It allows CM Punk to become the clear-cut #1 guy in the company. None of this gay 'transitional' world champion title runs bullshit. This would be the equivalent of Hogan leading the n.W.o...or Austin leading the alliance.

Hell - even Vince McMahon can endorse this stable (although by no means am I suggesting that he be a part of the stable). This idea not only pushes CM Punk to the absolute moon, but it also cleverly makes EVERY single character in the WWE relevant somehow. If you're a guy like Kofi Kingston and are already over with the fans?! GREAT! If you're a dickhead like...oh I dunno....Paul Burchill and aren't over in the slightest? Become part of the 'Straight Edge' stable and where the colors. The Staight Edge stable can do stuff like attacking wrestlers backstage for drinking beer (i.e. celebrating victories, etc.), or dating women, etc., etc.
