History Headscratchers / CMPunk

** What the one troper was saying about "if this is someone's first impression of straight edge", well I fully agree with that. Of course if you ask me all WWE had to do was put some more emphasis on the particular type of straight edge that punk truly is: Militant Straight Edge (look up straight edge on {{Wiki/Wikipedia}}; they have a section about it). That nerd Matt Striker could have easily explained to the viewers the difference between that, and what normal straight edge is.

*** Not idiots because they aren't going to turn one of their greatest heels, idiots because I doubt they realize how great of a face he could be, though they are hinting it. And I think the E' needs a good face much more than they need a good heel, (Jack Swagger is fine, even though he's up against the fucking Big Show.) Wrestling/{{Edge}}, Wrestling/ChrisJericho and The Miz are all heels, the faces need someone with charisma, and John Cena isn't enough, and he's the charismatic one when compared to Wrestling/RandyOrton.

** It's so we can see CM Punk look ridiculous. And the Angle thing? I believe he was starting to go bald naturally so he decided to say "Fuck it" and shave the entire thing. All the way bald? Not a great look, but it can be [[BaldOfAwesome pulled]] [[BaldOfEvil off]]. Prematurely balding? Pretty much a terrible look.

*** I get that having the hated heel who's ashamed of his shaven head having to display it to everybody is satisfying, and that sometimes there's a real-life excuse for these things (like you said, if you're going to be bald on top it's almost always a better look if you shave the sides as well). I'm just saying that they should have unmasked him sooner, because it makes a lot more sense if a guy still doesn't have any hair on his head after something like a week or two than it does if he hasn't grown any hair back after two months. And based on last week's Smackdown, Punk ''does'' seem to be growing it back now that the mask is gone. [[MST3KMantra Perhaps I shouldn't be thinking too hard about this stuff]]...but Headscratchers/ItJustBugsMe all the same.

** The answer to the question of why Punk has jobbed repeatedly to Show along with the entire SES is this: WWE is booked by idiots. The damage done in the past by said idiots can be found on wrestlecrap.com. That might seem simplistic, but I can't think of any other reason for it. Unless TheUndertaker ''still'' hasn't forgiven Punk for getting uppity with him.

**** Which isn't proof. Hell a guy over at the Spoony Experiment created a rumour a few years back that a Japanese star was passed over by Vince McMahon because he was "Too Asian" and the IWC quickly ate it up as fact. I mean give us a link of someone who was actually in the company saying that Mysterio buried people backstage. Because a rumour on a website is just that; a rumour. Most of them are bullshit, but get spread around as if they're the WordOfGod.

*** Punk's drunk beer. While he was feuding with Wrestling/{{Raven}} back on the independents, [[Wrestling/JimFullingtan Sandman]] came out, tied Punk to the ring ropes and poured beer down his throat. Punk doesn't drink, but he will pour some beer over his face if a storyline required it.
