I get where the first paragraph is coming from but the Tony Hawk games were always fairly punk and full off 2000s-gross-out-humor, in as much as a multimillion dollar product can be.,
Especially once you get to things like Underground or American Wasteland. This was adjacent to Bam Margera MTV-antics and Jackass, if anything casting milquetoast Tony Hawk as your posterboy would've backfired tremendously if that was it because what sold was edgelord / dudes rock stuff.
