Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money" Lightning Round Tuesday evening:

World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE Quote - Cramer on WWE - Stock Picks): "They're going a good job and its a great opportunity. I watch the company's dividend and I like it."

Waste Management (WMI Quote - Cramer on WMI - Stock Picks): "I think this is a great quality growth stock."

IDEXX Laboratories (IDXX Quote - Cramer on IDXX - Stock Picks): "This company is a classic good name that should be bought on dips. It's a long-term theme and I'd stick with it."

Tesoro (TSO Quote - Cramer on TSO - Stock Picks): "I think the refining companies are in a tough business. This business could be bad for a very long time. May I recommend Marathon Oil (MRO Quote - Cramer on MRO - Stock Picks) for those who insist on a refining stock."

Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE Quote - Cramer on CCE - Stock Picks): "Why own Coca-cola enterprises when you can own Coca-Cola (KO Quote - Cramer on KO - Stock Picks)? I think Coke at $57 is a great long-term buy."

PPL (PPL Quote - Cramer on PPL - Stock Picks): "I like PPL on the fundamentals, let's not own it for the split. I prefer Exelon (EXC Quote - Cramer on EXC - Stock Picks) over PPL, though."
