Passion Of The Punk

[Sumbody Gon' Get Dey Kneelift]

I would seriously mark for an angle where a group of faces and heels isolate and savagely beat down CM Punk after him doing something truly outrageous.

They really just pound the snot out of him (maybe even with blood, since it seems that's making a comeback), to the degree that it's like OMG.

Then he's left flat, and the SES comes and carries him out.

I can already see the "Last Time On Smackdown" dramatic edit in my head.

They could do something like that, but leave it at the savage beating level. If they take it up to an actual religious angle, it could get ugly.

I'd mark.

[Kevin Hamilton]

An interesting idea, but where do you go from there though?

[Brother Ike: Thread Killer]

Wasn't that basically Bret/Vince last Sunday?

[Kash Flagg]

That seems more apt for a face than Punk though. Why wouldn't the SES simply run in and help? And beating someone bloody...Punk would have to do something a lot worse to deserve the beating, otherwise the person doing the beating is gonna be perceived as a heel.

Nah. This kinda sounds like it would be entertaining.

True, it would generate a VERY large backlash imo.

Yeah, I thought the same as you guys.

[Kevin Hamilton]

You know what I think might be a more intriguing twist?

Maybe along the way, as Luke and Serena get more devout, and maybe a couple more followers join-- some chinks in the image of Punk as their savior get exposed. They begin to doubt just how committed to their cause Punk is; and begin to think that he's failed them. For Punk the Society is just means to an end, but for them it's real.

Gradually this frustration builds within them, and more and more it becomes apparent that Punk has just been using them to further his own goals, and the SES themselves turn on him, do the aforementioned beat him bloody and cast him out.

That's a very cool idea...however it would require quite a bit of finesse, something I'm not sure Gallows and Serena could pull off. Punk is the talent there, we can all agree on that I think.

[Bubble Lead]

So essentially when Orton got kicked out of Evolution?

That was the closest beat down that comes to mind.

[Cactus Jack]

Hang on, blood "seems to be making a comeback"? Since when?
