>>15055057Tough call.
This is Punk's first program back, and fans will still want to see him in a couple others, like against Cody. And internally, I'm sure there's guys that Punk wants to work, and some that'll politick to work with him like Seff. He's a main event guy that needs main event credibility.
But Drew, on the other hand, is on the run of a lifetime. And while the beatdown on Smackdown was as good as they could've done it, I don't think that's enough to sell how obsessed and violent he's become.
I guess it depends how many matches they have. You could maybe, maybe have Punk go over if you do a couple matches where Drew really brutalizes him.
Ultimately, I think I'd pick Drew. Have Punk move down the card just a bit right after, have him beat, but give the rub to someone in the midcard, before bumping him back up. And then have Drew go on a bit of a tear and eventually collide with Gunther in the title picture.
