In some fantastic news for pro wrestling fans, we now know that Dark Side of the Ring will be returning to our screens next month.

As announced by the Dark Side Twitter account, the second half of the show's third season will premiere on Thursday 16 September.

The topics in the spotlight across these next seven episodes are WWE's infamous Plane Ride from Hell, Chris Kanyon, FMW, Johnny K9/Bruiser Bedlam, Luna Vachon, XPW, and WWE's steroids trials.

Unfortunately for UK fans, there's still no word on when the first half of Season 3 will be airing, although Channel 4 has the previous two seasons both available in full to watch on-demand.

During a recent appearance on Renee Paquette's Oral Sessions podcast, Dark Side of the Ring creators Evan Husney and Jason Eisner detailed how they've still got lots of ideas for a fourth season and more of the show, so it would appear that there's still plenty to come from this brilliant VICE series.
