"I did it for Andy Kaufman."

Some of the WWE Superstars shared their thoughts on Punk's kick to Lawler:

Heath Slater: "I think @CMPunk is in the right. If the @WWEUniverse doesn't respect him. Make Them!"

Tyson Kidd: "Not so sure I agree with @CMPunk . Respect is earned not commanded. Great talent but attitude or mindset is out of sync. For the record I've both teamed with and wrestled against @CMPunk and have a great deal of respect for him. Some actions are questionable"

Curt Hawkins: "Been a fan of @CMPunk since I was in high school. I've never been a fan Jerry Lawler. I thought the kick was justified."
