Comedy Central is known to push the limits of their comedic stunts, however, their last innuendos draw so much criticism that they had to omit the Paul Walker punch line from the Bieber roast. 

Apparently, Justin Bieber's roast ended in what would be a criticism about Bieber's drag racing issues. The phrase "Move Bitch! Get Out of the way!" is what Walker should have told the tree. The supposed comedic tirade didn't sit well with viewers, especially celebrities like Ludacris, who even motioned to halt the taping as he found the joke too offensive.

When Jeff Ross was asked about it, he merely said, "I was so in the moment, I don't know what jokes hit." According to the Salon, a Comedy Central spokesperson has announced that the show is removing all Walker innuendos in their upcoming shows.

In their statement, it said, "Roast often pushes the limits of good taste and we give the participants full reign to try things, knowing we have the edit to shape the show. Sometimes, the line is discovered by crossing it. The Paul Walker references will not be on the telecast."

According to ABCNews, Bieber expressed his dislike about the Walker jokes, in fact, it may be the only part of the show that the Canadian singer didn't like. Bieber's roast will air on March 30 sans the Walker jokes.

Kevin Hart, the hardcore panelist, was so keen on making Bieber cry. He even admitted that the show went a little bit rough on Bieber. However, after the show and Bieber's tough acceptance of the challenges and "roasting," Hart felt like he's a new man now, even acknowledging the fact that Justin has come to terms with his past and even found a way to make fun of them.
