Jerry Springer actually guest hosted WWE Monday Night RAW on February 15 live in Des Moines, Iowa.

Springer, best known for his own talk show The Jerry Springer Show, that is currently in its nineteenth season will fit right into the circus that Monday Night RAW has become. Springer’s talk show, which gained its highest notoriety in the late ‘90s, coincidentally when WWE was reaching its highest numbers thanks to the “Attitude” era, have a lot in common. Both shows are accused of appealing to the uneducated masses with their lowbrow subject manner and presentation.

He has never been associated with WWE in the past, but his career as a ringmaster on talk show circuit will provide him all the skills necessary to navigate Monday Night RAW for the night. In fact Springer has the potential to be one of the more entertaining guest hosts of this era thanks to his ability to be the central stable figure amidst all the chaos that develops around him. Plus unlike other previous guest hosts, there shouldn’t be a feeling of being “below” professional wrestling, which should provide more honest interaction with the talent.
