Villian is 21/16-2.6 over 451 hands. WTSD is 16 %. Raise 1st from UTG is 18 %. He is folding 40 % to 3 bets.
I'm checking flop behind, because I would think he is defending with a lot of hands that will fold this flop. A lot of broadway type hands. And with checking we might get him to bluff later turn and river with hands, he was folding to a flop cbet.
Should we be doing this with worse ax and just bet AK, because it's too strong? How is my thinking in this hand?

Regarding your thought process I don´t like it. You setup yourself to get at least two streets of value - by faking weakness and potentially get Villain to bluff. What you miss is the fact that this is a board you probably 100% cbet with air. So you shouldn´t suddenly check witih strong (but not nutted hands) - because Villain won´t start to bluff you. Why should he? You´re never x/f this type of flop as the pf3b, you´re either cbetting or x/c, so it doesn´t make sense for him to bet.
And you mentioned that you might get him to bluff. How that? You bet the turn. So he could just raise the turn, but that´s nonsense. If you wanted to be consequential you had to check the turn again - but you obviously realize yourself what a strange line that would be. ;-)
All that said, all you "accomplish" is losing value. Just bet-bet-bet and get value from worse Ax. If you want to balance your checking-range, take hands like AA / AT etc.
Hope that helps.
