He should be a very over tweener pipebombing everyone face or heel. Basically like he was as a heel last time just without yelling at how much the crowd and their local sports teams suck. But can he keep the random fan abuse? I love watching Punk be a belligerent prick.

Punk's okay as a face, he still has some of the best matches in the company. And he's great at promos no matter what.
But he's so much better as a heel that it's almost crazy. It's like he's working on a whole other level. He's a natural heel.

Drop the IWC pandering and lame Kevin Nash jokes, and yeah, he's much better as a face.

heel you hated on the stick that didn't (unlike HHH) bore the pants off everyone. Actually Punk did bore me on the stick as he had way too much mic time, it was just the same meandering nonsense week after week. Sadly that continued as a face. He also needed a proper face turn after all the reprehensible things he said and did but nope he's just a face now, the same unrepentant asshole he's always been. Maybe worse as he just ignores whatever is happening outside his own little bubble. Despite all that he actually a good face, he hasn't spoke as much recently and as a result is far more likeable, hopefully that trend will continue. Don't get me wrong he's great on the mic but he's just been overexposed, less should be more for the foreseeable future so when the time comes to drop pipebombs again it will actually mean something.

He's a good face when he's simply kicking ass and breaking people's faces instead of making corny jokes. That's where I draw the line too. Ever since turning face after Wrestlemania, I've been enjoying this face run. He's appeared to embrace the traditional babyface archetype, but he doesn't try too hard by making corny jokes. He just goes out, hypes the crowd, and kicks ass. He'll sometimes cut a promo, and it's good and straight to the point. That's all I ever ask for out of Face Punk. No need to be corny like Cena. Sheamus suffered from this too.

The problem with Punk is that he "peaked too early" /steph. Not in terms of not living up to expectations a la the Miz, but Punk's legacy has already been cemented with the Summer of Punk and 434 Days. The constant dream matches with part timers served to keep him busy for the time being, but after that, there's nowhere to go but down.. There's nothing left for him. He really doesn't need a win back from any of the legends because he's already "made" and Even another WWE Title run would feel like a step down.

I have never been able to boo punk face heel or tweener. The reason he is face is because even as the most evil heel you could imagine he still got cheered by an element of the audience.
He has that indefinable something that makes him the guy. Therefore yes he is a good face.
Also: cult of personality is the best entrance ever
