Mike Knox would work much better, he's already on SD!. he's already a heel, he's got a sweet beard, he wouldn't need a huge gimmick/name change to have him fit the role.

Like its already been said, the idea of a straight edge guy using drugs to manipulate someone for his own use is amazing.
Change his name, give him a more menacing look,

I didnt even think of that, I like this idea better. Mike Knox is really impressive lately and this could move him from lower midcard to actually being something and that'd be awesome.

I say go for it because t would be mostly good for Festus. His current characer is done, give him a new name, and it could potentially get him over in the long run.

Screw Festus, Have Danielson and McGuiness be his bodyguards. Yeah, and Punk and Long would become friends thus having Long be on Punk's side. Then Long's nephew would debut and be at their side. They would all make sure Punk keeps the title. No wait, that's Edge's La Familia again... We can have them be Punk's lackeys. They'll receive Punk's order on what to do. No wait.. that's Legacy. Seriously, though I love the idea of a straight edge giving drugs to a person, I don't really want Punk to be allied with anybody. In fact, I'm tired of all heels except for 7' to have to cheat to win.

I would like to see Colt Cabana and Ace Steel be brought in as the second city saints and help protect him, but that is just wishful thinking.
Either have him some what cured under pills or being able to be controlled and CM Punk could talk about how he took advantage of Festus because he was weak just like the fans that need pills to make them fill better or act differently.

Bring up an ROH guy to be his Bodyguard No one is a better pick then him. PERFECT. I thought it was a HUGE mis-fire that the WWE didn't reunite the Second City Saints when they had them.

If they're really going to do this, I would prefer the story of Punk getting him off meds as opposed to controlling him with meds.

But wouldn't Punk not want anyone to take pills? I think he should take him off the meds and then somehow he becomes normal or something..
But I don't know how this will work. I never really liked Festus so hopefully it ends up well.

This idea sounds pretty awesome, tbh.. But wouldn't Punk not want anyone to take pills? I think he should take him off the meds and then somehow he becomes normal or something.. But I don't know how this will work. I never really liked Festus so hopefully it ends up well. Well, there's a surprise...

I never really liked Festus so hopefully it ends up well. The point is that he'd be a hypocrite, making him an even more solid heel. It'd also make Punk look like he didn't care about Festus and was just using him, instead of the guy willingly helping him out. Mike Knox is trying to get over on his own, and doing a fairly decent job of it. I think repackaging Festus is the right call here, as it would give a young talent some new life. I see a lot of similarities between Punk's current heel run, and Shawn Michaels' heel run in late 1997. Both were lean and average high-fliers, both were cocky, both had/have run-ins with The Undertaker at the August/September... hell, both may be locked in a Hell in a Cell with Taker in early October. What they're doing with Punk is working, and adding a body guard (like Rick Rude/Triple H for Michaels) would work wonders.

So Festus has been off television for about a year (except for about five appearances) because WWE were planning on making him Punk's bodyguard? Doesn't quite add up...
