This is very frequent in
The thing about these talk shows is that they seem to always end violently. Usually the host calls out a wrestler and proceeds to either insult the wrestler directly or brag his ass off while at the same time insulting the guest. At this point, the guest's finishing move is often applied to the host's face. Sometimes, however, the guest decides to say something to the host and then, inexplicably, take his eye off of the host. Which is frequently followed by the host taking the guest's head off.
Line 6:

Was incredibly popular in the early 90s, when just about every heel in the [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] got one.
Not to be confused with ''[[Jerry Springer]]'' and its ilk.
