VICE TV just dropped the massive two-hour Season 7 premiere of Dark Side of the Ring, and "Jeff Jarrett & The Battle for TNA" pulls absolutely no punches!
The highly anticipated return of the acclaimed docuseries dives headfirst into the chaotic, emotional, and physical toll of building Total Nonstop Action wrestling from the ground up, and there is a lot of incredible wrestling history to unpack.
In this deep-dive review of Parts 1 & 2, I am breaking down all the wild revelations about Jeff Jarrett’s journey—from the fallout of being fired on WWE television to the desperate, high-stakes scramble to create a viable alternative with NWA-TNA.
We look closely at how the documentary framed the foundational years of the company, the revolutionary creation of the X-Division, and the incredibly complicated dynamic with Dixie Carter. Having spent 18 years creating content on this platform, I've analyzed countless wrestling storylines and unique ring configurations, but hearing the firsthand, behind-the-scenes accounts of how TNA's iconic six-sided ring era came to be gives a totally new perspective on the aesthetics and the cutthroat business of that era.
The episode doesn't just stick to the spectacle; it gets into the gritty reality, exploring the blurred lines between Jarrett the promoter and Jarrett the in-ring character during TNA's peak years. I give you my unfiltered thoughts on whether the series accurately captured the promotion's chaotic vibe, what they got right about the early Nashville Asylum days, and what crucial details might have been left on the cutting room floor as we gear up for next week's Part 3 conclusion.
