Seratonin Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 I loved both segments with Punk. The second one felt utterly surreal, as if it wasn't happening. It felt like CM Punk was suddenly babyface and that everyone in the crowd agreed that the last five years in WWE has been shite. The fact that in the storyline Vince apologised, I found that crazy. It has to be a turn for the better in WWE, I just hope they don't screw it up.
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted July 12, 2011 Author Paid Members Posted July 12, 2011 I am excited for the fact that punk is making straight edge cool. Isnt that against the meaning of being "straight edge"? The fact that your lifestyle is lived in spite of peoples opinions. Being straight edge because its cool is missing the point surely?
Awards Moderator Frankie Crisp Posted July 12, 2011 Awards Moderator Posted July 12, 2011 I don't think anyone's going to say anything about Punk that hasn't already been said. He was superb; the 'one of the things WWE gets in the news for is people dying' was a genuine moment of 'did he just say that?'. Even some of the crowd didn't know how to react. He was brilliant throughout both segments and even if McMahon and Cena hadn't also been on form, it would of been good. But as it was, all three were fantastic. Â Oh and Mark Henry looked like a fat kid throwing himself in to a ball pool. I couldn't stop laughing at it. Â

Being straight edge because its cool is missing the point surely? plus he's not making straight edge cool. It's not come into the feud at all.

Â I'm straight edge myself I don't do it to be cool -different or anything like that I do it because I just don't want to drink booze smoke or take drugs up until a few years ago I didn't even know there was a word for it.
Trout Stain Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Punk has definitely convinced me to watch my first show since Mania  I can only hope that they don't fuck this up
The King Of Swing Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 The opening segment though good didn't really blow me away now the final segment on the other hand was on the edge of your seat material and even Cena was on good form. Â Christ even with my doubts I'm still tempted to watch the PPV.

Smeg_&_The_Heads Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a difference between being straight edge and being tee total  Yeah Tee Total can still smoke or take drugs

Â to be honest until i saw the straight edge society i was the same. didnt know there was a word for it. Just doing what i want and not succumbing to peer pressure etc.
Paid Members Duke Posted July 12, 2011 Paid Members Posted July 12, 2011 Yeah Tee Total can still smoke or take drugs Ok, not what I meant. I have a feeling that not smoking, doing drugs, or drinking is not al it takes to be straight edge.

Just whats wrong with say you just dont drink and do drugs
kamicazze Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 I dont call myself straight edge as the general public doesnt know what that means so i just go the long route and say i dont smoke, drink or do drugs and am highly opinionated and outspoken.
Paid Members Fox Piss Posted July 12, 2011 Paid Members Posted July 12, 2011 Chicago is going to take this excellent PPV Main Event and make it special. Â Guaranteed Goosebumps.
CTXRussomark Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 I've just watched the two segments from Monday and am I the only one who immediately thought of a Corporate-Rock style heel (re-heel?) turn for Punk at the PPV? Vince helps Punk to win the belt and reveals he re-signed Punk during the week on the guarantee he would be champion. Punk comes out all suited up the next night as the ultimate hypocrite and the same fans who just found their "voice" are outraged that their saviour has been corrupted and Cena's been screwed so there's your rematch for next month. Â *EDIT* Â That is of course if Punk isn't actually leaving. These Punk segments and the Rock's initial return are the only segments I've watched this year so I've not been following things too closely.
