In those two, you have honestly, what you could represent two pieces of the young adults in America. You have Punk the tattooed, pierced, alternative lifestyle man who, if he wasn't a wrestler, would struggle to find work because of his appearance. And then you have Ziggler who is the clean cut worker that dresses in nice suits that all he has to do is accept the job and it's his.
If they finally figure out how to push Ziggler on his own, they could be able to capture that portion of America that looks like and might even live life like Punk. That was the special thing about Austin, he represented the blue collar American and let them live through him.
This day in age, almost everyone has a tattoo and in some cases, you can't work somewhere if you have them. I work at a grocery store that if you have tattoo any where visible in a t-shirt, no matter if it was puppy or an upside-down cross, they wouldn't hire you. A grocery store. But the point is, there is a demographic of people that WWE struggles to watch. And they could make another, albeit, smaller Rock vs Austin if they play that up right.
