There's been a lot of talk about turning Punk heel and quite frankly I don't see that happening. When Punk was heel one of his favorite phrases was "I'm straightedge, so I'm better than you". Do you really think that in the PG era, Wwe would send that message to kids? That the straightedge guy is a total doosh? I don't think so. I'm not saying I agree with that at all, I'd actually love to see Punk as a heel again. I'm just saying Wwe won't turn him heel, and if they do it won't be the same heel we've seen in the past.
I really do not mind Punk winning, but i feel MVP/Christian would be better Money In The Bank Holders. I think that Punk won't reach his full potential again this year and will end up looking worse than last year. MVP winning would have made sense seeing as he has been on a losing streak as of late and needed to get out of it and MITB would have been the perfect place. Oh well, Christian needed it to get off of ECW, but i really don't think putting punk as MITB Winner was such a good idea.
Turning Punk heel would be extremely refreshing, as his character has become extremely stale over the last six months. I say have him beat Swagger for the ECW belt, then turn on the fans, then embark on a feud with Christian that will last throughout the summer.
