Dark Side of the Ring: Docuseries Confirmed for Season 6 Return
Vice Media confirmed that Evan Husney & Jason Eisener's Dark Side of the Ring will be returning to Vice TV for a sixth season.
We've got some good news to pass along for fans of Evan Husney & Jason Eisener's Dark Side of the Ring who've been wondering if a sixth installment would be on the way. This week, Vice Media announced that it now has a sports division and that Vice TV would be heavily focusing on sports-related programming – to the tune of more than 50 hours of shows, docuseries, etc. In the press release, it was noted that a number of original series would be in play on the network – including Pitino: Red Storm Rising, Calipari: Razor's Edge, and The Verdict, as well as four original Vice Studios series. That's where we learned that the sixth season of the popular professional wrestling docuseries was in development (alongside Dark Side of the Cage, The Grudge, and Sports Gone Wrong). "Now is the time to double-down and shift to a sports-focused programming model," Vice TV President Pete Gaffney shared, noting that Dark Side of the Ring helped set the foundation. "We have several exciting new shows that we are co-producing alongside some of the biggest names in sports who will partner with us to fuel the Vice Sports brand."
Here's a look back at the announcement from earlier this year, offering a rundown of the Season 5 topics as well as some teases of what was to come, with Vice TV's Dark Side of the Ring returning for its fifth season in April 2024:
