Jeff Jarrett & The Battle For TNA | Dark Side of the Ring (Full Episode - Part 1)
The archive stayed busy. VICE posted nothing new, but its catalog brought in about 3.1 million views, with daily viewing running above its usual pace and subscribers unchanged.
Among its most active older uploads, "Jeff Jarrett & The Battle For TNA | Dark Side of the Ring (Full Episode - Part 1)" has a narrow edge. The episode traces Jarrett's wrestling roots and the creation of Total Nonstop Action, from its pay-per-view beginnings to the X-Division and its distinctive six-sided ring. Jeff and Matt Hardy, Jim Cornette, Vince Russo, Scott Steiner and Scott D'Amore are among the voices telling that history. It has passed 1.5 million views.
Close beside it is "The Mayhem of Jason Miller | Dark Side Of The Cage," which revisits the MMA fighter's career and crossover into television as host of MTV's Bully Beatdown. The two documentaries are drawing almost identical daily audiences.
VICE's weekly viewing sits close to FRONTLINE PBS, though FRONTLINE added subscribers while VICE held steady. Another active corner of VICE's own shelf takes a different approach to combat: "Inside the UK's Most Extreme Underground Fight Club | Heavy Weekend," a collaboration with Away Days featuring journalist Jake Hanrahan.
