CM Punk should have a cult leader gimmick

[noleafclover1980]

Right now it seems like they may be leading to it, but he should get a full stable of brainwashed straight edge followers. Matt Striker really seems to try to paint him as a messiah and savior to Gallows, so I'd like to see them really run with it. Plus he has an awesome cult leader beard. I may or may not have just watched Star Trek V when this idea popped into my head as well. lol

Don't forget about the awesome cult leader chest hair.

mmmm nah

I'm gonna listen to "My Sweet Lord" now and rewrite the lyrics to be about CM Punk as an Indian Religious Guru

You know that if Russo were writing this, there'd be Cult Warz, then the only person to get over out of it would be a valet.

He's doing an excellent job of rolling with this slight twist on his characterization. Striker is doing a great job of playing it up to. He's really being painted like some sort of Anti-Christ Megalomaniac and it's coming off great, I think.

CM Punk could actually turn his gimmick into what the Jackal did 12 or so years ago, except that Punk at least can work and doesn't piss off JBL or others in the back.

I hope it leads into this, but I'm really enjoying it so far. I like how Punk and Gallows sometimes sound like they're on the brink of an orgasm when talking about the "straight edge lifestyle" and how it can change lives. They're so convinced it's awesome.

If they end up getting Matt Striker on board, they should do some segments where he visits people's houses with a suitcase trying get some followers onboard - leading to Gallows kicking their head off if they don't comply.

Matt Striker did say on Smackdown "It's the sabbath, so let's celebrate our savior" when CM Punk was winning.
