Punk isn't a tweener, he's a face turning heel(or teasing that way atleast).

I don't see ANY tweeners right now, much less a "resurgence" of them, even if your two references were true.

Punk's still a face at the moment. If I were to judge based on how he has been booked over the last two weeks he is being kept as a face.

First things first, his justification for his actions at The Bash although they were unpopular they were not heelish. Everything he said was true, and he never lashed out at the fans for not accepting his victory. He simply said that it would be an unpopular choice to some, but it is in theory the same thing he did to Edge last year that at that time made him a universal hero.

That, and they put Punk in a match against the number two heel on Smackdown, and perhaps in the whole WWE. Maybe I'm looking too far into the lines here, but it seemed like an attempt to put Punk against somebody who he'd obviously get cheered against considering the obvious factor that most of the fans (who are Hardy fans) would negatively react to Punk.

Either WWE's slowly turning Punk heel, or they are simply attempting to remedy the situation until his feud with Hardy ends where he can move on to being a full fledged face.

Someone doesn't watch TNA... Tweeners are the norm there and have been for quite a long time.

As for Punk, he's a face turning heel (which is blatently obvious considering his actions at Extreme Rules, his promo on Smackdown, and his win on Raw) which in my books makes him a tweener. He's a face willing to use less than noble tactics to win, that's a tweener to me.

Do I like or dislike Tweener's? They can be fun, but as TNA has proven, overloading your roster with them is not a good idea. If WWE turn Punk at The Bash fully then it ceases to be an issue anyway as the other example given has a legitimate reason for his actions meaning I don't actually see him a tweener at all at the minute.
