What the fuck does being Straight Edge have to do with wrestling? Was this the most tryhard gimmick ever made?

Nothing but the gimmick made sense since it was real and it got a reaction from the beer loving rednecks in the crowd
Because the wrestling business was full of pill poppers and alcoholic motherfuckers when he took on the gimmick. It wouldn't work nowadays because most of the wrestlers are fucking cucks who play games

Punk used to get great heat during the SES run, down South in particular where he would go super overboard with the Christfag baiting stuff.
One time at a house show in some bumfuck hole in Tenessee or some place, an old lady jumped the barricade wielding a crucifix trying to attack Punk with it, screaming at the top of her lungs "YOU ARE NOT JESUS CHRIST AND YOU WILL BURN IN HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY YOU BLASPHEMOUS HEATHEN"

Evangelical preachers are carnies and conmen just like wrestlers.It's a perfect fit for pro wrestling.
People used to give D-von and BIG DEACON DAVE actual money when they would do the collection box gimmick, and they'd keep the money and use it to buy beer after the shows.

Wrestling fans are mostly working class scum with alcohol and drug addictions. Based Punk was getting god tier heat by being straight edge.
