On 10 September 2012 on Raw, Jerry Lawler suffered a legitimate cardiac arrest. Then he was feuding with CM Punk, and also defeated him in a tag team match alongside Randy Orton prior.

After returning to the company, he gave a 'thank you' speech to the WWE Universe, but after that, he got interrupted by Punk and Heyman.

Punk insulted him by saying that his cardiac arrest was just a stunt to steal the spotlight. Heyman then faked a cardiac arrest to mock Lawler, and this segment shocked many fans.

Punk was one of the best heel wrestlers of that time, and this incident allowed him to generate more heat among the fans. However it was already scripted, and Lawler already knew about this.
