This week on Jim Cornette’s Drive Thru, the veteran manager claimed Punk should not turn heel. He admitted that the Straightedge Star might use some underhanded tactics to win matches but would no be a full-blown heel yet. Cornette noted that the star would be an amazing heel but with the fan appreciation and merchandise money, there was no reason for WWE to pull the trigger at this point.

“CM Punk ain’t turning heel. I can guarantee. Now, he might do questionable things, which sometimes CM Punk might do to other babyfaces because he just f*cking fought one. I’m not saying that Punk is like, ‘I won’t turn heel, no matter what.’ I’m saying there’s no reason at this stage of his career, with the amount of people that like him and buy his merchandise, and with the connection he has to them, can verbalize, etc. He is a special guy. He can just do his own thing. I think they’d be insane if he just turned heel again and was like, ‘F*ck all of you people,’ because you would ruin that. He’s so good at it, he can piss them off. But there’s no need to. He’s a money machine.”
