Jerry Springer Talks What We Can Expect on “Too Hot for TV”, Recalls Meeting Vince, What He Told The Bella Twins & More

jerry springerJerry Springer, who will debut a new “Too Hot for TV” show on the WWE Network tonight after Raw, recently spoke with Joshua Caudill of CraveOnline.com about the show, meeting Vince McMahon and much more.

Below are some interview highlights:

CraveOnline: What can we expect from WWE Too Hot For TV? What’s the format like?

Jerry Springer: Well, the best example I can give is, you know that show Talk Soup that has been on for years? Where they show clips of various talk shows and make jokes? Translate that or shift it over to the WWE.

There is a vault of literally over 20-30 years of great fights and episodes filled with drama and backstories. It’s outrageous, its athletic, and its funny, and we find the best moments in the vaults of all these fights and we show the clips and I get to joke about it. It’s just a wealth of material.

CraveOnline: I was watching your segment with The Bella Twins last fall when you got carried out on a stretcher. How did you keep a straight face throughout that segment?

Jerry Springer: [Laughs] Well, I’ll tell you what. This is true. When I was down on the ground and they were on top of me, I said to one of them, I don’t remember which, they look alike, how could I tell who was who? But anyways, I said to one of them “You got 25 minutes to get off me” and she started laughing so that’s my one memory of it. It was great.

CraveOnline: Do you have a favorite story or person you’ve met while working with WWE?

Jerry Springer: I got to tell you a big thrill for me was meeting Vince McMahon. He’s iconic in the entertainment industry and I realize how difficult it is to do what he’s done.
