Big news for the Dark Side franchise! We are thrilled to take home two wins at the Canadian Screen Awards, celebrating what has become one of VICE’s most iconic factual series: 🏆 Best Factual Series – Dark Side of the Ring 🏆 Best Original Music, Factual/Lifestyle/Reality/Entertainment – Dark Side of the Cage, (composition by Nikhil Seetharam). At its core, this franchise succeeds because it challenges convention. It looks past the bright lights and the characters to tell the deeply human, often tragic, and ultimately resilient stories of icons trying to balance real life with the spectacle of professional wrestling. But the story continues! We just dropped the trailer for Dark Side of the Ring Season 7! Check it out and catch the premiere on July 7th on VICE TV. Season 7 goes deeper than ever with a three-part odyssey into TNA through the eyes of Jeff Jarrett, in-depth profiles of classic stars Paul Orndorff and Big Boss Man, and a gripping breakdown of the violent clash between Samoa Joe and Necro Butcher. A massive thank you to the Academy of Canadian Cinema & Television | l’Académie canadienne du cinéma et de la télévision, our co-creators Evan Husney and Jason Eisener, our partners at Bell Media’s Crave, our composers (Andrew Gordon Macpherson - Dark Side of the Ring, Nikhil Seetharam - Dark Side of the Cage) and the incredible VICE Studios team, crew, insiders, and viewers who make this franchise possible. Grab your popcorn and let’s go!! 📺 🍿
