What is your opinion of it? Personally, think it's better than that drawing of him that looked like something out of The Dishwasher (fun game, I should buy the sequel), but I still don't like it at all. Just bland and it looks kind of awkward, though since they've reused the thing twice now it seems to be sticking. Though maybe I'm just spoiled since Punk had some of the best shirts early on, and I own one of them. This one to be exact -

Aside from the shirt you mentioned, I can't think of a bad Punk shirt. I have to admit I like the fist/lightning bolt logo.

Clearly it's because his side job is an electrician

I really like it.
But my favorite colors are black, red and white, and I think they look awesome together, so it's good by default.

I actually love the logo.
As for the shirt you used as an example, I actually hate the front of that. The design is cool but a lot of people don't know that part of one of his sleeves is dedicated to his "Luck is for Losers" mantra. If the shirt had said that instead of "Straight Edge Hardcore," I'd probably like it. I love the back though. I wish they would have played off the Chicago flag stars a little more in his merch. All that said, that shirt is better than 99% of the merch WWE produces, IMO.

I do wonder what that logo means. I was given a t-shirt about 6 months ago which is completely unrelated to wrestling and in the middle of the design is a fist holding a lightning bolt. I'll take a picture of it later.

The problem that I have with a lot of his early merchandise (like the one mentioned in the OP) is that they have the words Straight Edge in giant letters, which is quite silly to wear when you don't live that lifestyle.

It's a great logo I think, I have the shirt he had before he joined Nexus.
Id love to get that white shirt he wore at MITB but not holding out much hope for that.

Punk has been my favourite wrestler since before his WWE debut, But ive too much integrety to wear a shirt that says straight edge, when im not. I was left waiting a long time for a decent shirt that didnt have too much Iconography on it x

Punk has had A LOT of t-shirts and they have all been good.
Which is perhaps the only thing that didn't quite sit well with his, otherwise awesome, shoot promo.

This is the shirt I have which features a very similar logo:

I love the fist-and-bolt logo personally. Me too. It has that "rising against the corruption" vibe to it, which fits Punk very well right now. They need to integrate that with the "Voice of the Voiceless" thing for his next shirt.

As long as they don't give him double lightning bolts.

This is what I think of... which is what my joke earlier was based on.
