For that, we turn to Matt Hardy, who was one of many names on what he called a “wild” list of interviewees on the Jarrett/TNA triple feature. Promoting those episodes and the news season on his The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast recently, the tag team legend said: “[Jeff Jarrett] said more than likely the last season of Dark Side of the Ring. He said they [presumably series co-creators Evan Husney and Jason Eisener] have some new endeavors they want to try.“ We’ll see what the future holds for Dark Side of the Ring after season seven. In the meantime, let us know which of the new episodes or topics you’re looking forward to most. Do that in the comments below.
