Summary: Vice TV premieres Cornette Side of the Ring tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 10, at 10 PM ET. The Jim Cornette series, a companion to Dark Side of the Ring, airs three half-hour episodes back to back, PWInsider reported on Nov. 10.
The quick version
- Cornette Side of the Ring premieres tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2026, on Vice TV. The first episode starts at 10 PM ET, per PWInsider.
- Three episodes air in a row: 10 PM, 10:30 PM and 11 PM ET. Each pairs two topics from wrestling history.
- Vice announced the date in a press release on Oct. 28. It describes the show as a companion series to Dark Side of the Ring.
Jim Cornette's new series, Cornette Side of the Ring, premieres tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2026, on Vice TV. PWInsider's Mike Johnson published the schedule on Tuesday morning, and the first episode starts at 10 PM ET.
What airs tonight
PWInsider lists three episodes back to back, with the topics as Vice describes them:
- 10 PM ET: the WWF's attempt to turn Stone Cold Steve Austin heel, and the WCW Invasion storyline.
- 10:30 PM ET: CM Punk's Pipe Bomb promo, and how Vince Russo handled the WCW Championship.
- 11 PM ET: the night Hulk Hogan left a talk-show host unconscious on live TV, and the story of the former Pizza Hut executive who ran WCW.
Those topic lines are paraphrased from the promotional copy PWInsider printed. We did not see the episodes.
What the show is
Vice's announcement, issued Oct. 28 and printed by The Futon Critic, describes the series this way: Cornette "pulls back the curtain on outrageous, infamous, and unforgettable moments in pro wrestling, offering his unfiltered perspective and opinions in a companion series to Dark Side of the Ring."
Cornette has appeared on Dark Side of the Ring since it started in 2019, and he took part in its three-part documentary on Jeff Jarrett and TNA, per WrestleZone. WrestleZone says the new show lets him take the lead instead of appearing as one of several interview subjects.
WrestlingNews.co reported on Oct. 29 that the show has been posted on YouTube since late September as a co-release from Vice Sports and Dark Side of the Ring. We did not check whether tonight's three episodes match any of those videos.
What we do not know
- How long the TV run is. Vice's announcement gives no episode count, and a TV Insider listing we saw in a search result shows three episodes for 2026.
- Where the show will stream. The same listing said it was not available on any streaming platform at the time we saw it.
- Whether Vice has set a regular weekly slot after tonight.
