CM Punk's Pepsi Tatoo is a straight edge reference based on the Pepsi slogan "the choice of a new generation".

Nah, I don't think it's because "it's a choice of a new generation" I think it's because Pepsi isn't Coke. Get it? Coke.

Straight from the mouth of CM Punk confirms that it's because of his love for Pepsi when he growing up watching saturday morning wrestling and because it was his way of saying fuck you to the bullies from High School who had beer logos tatted on them.
However, Pepsi logo is a standard icon in the sXe world and for that "next generation" slogan.

I'm not disagreeing (and am not going to get a response, since he's banned & all) ... but how long has Pepsi been the official icon in the sXe world? It was Coca-Cola for as long as I can remember (meaning from the days of SSDecontrol, DYS, and Minor Threat). Just curious.
I couldn't agree more about Murdoch, RRR. Hopefully he grows into his look and picks up the abilities to match the aesthetics.

Pepsi came up with the "Choice..." slogan around the early 80s, just as Straight Edge was starting to pop up.
