VICE Announces Tales From the Territories

Vice TV is expanding its pro wrestling docuseries offerings with a new show from the “Dark Side of the Ring” team and Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia’s Seven Bucks Productions.

The series is titled “Tales from the Territories” and will delve into the time in wrestling when the industry was divided into smaller, territory based organizations. The new series will debut Oct. 4 at 10 p.m. ET. Watch a new trailer for the show below.

“The wrestling business is filled with nuanced relationships and there’s a phenomenal history that we know fans are going to enjoy,” said Brian Gewirtz, senior vice president of creative development for Seven Bucks Productions and former head writer at WWE. “In many ways the wrestling world is a family, they have great moments, tough times and everything in-between. There’s a rich history of untold stories which we can’t wait to bring to life.”

Per the official description of the show, the territory days were the time before wrestling expanded nationally, when different areas across the US and Canada, aka “Territories,” were areas dominated by unscrupulous bookers, rabid fans who fervently believed in their favorite characters and fearless wrestlers who blurred the lines between fiction and reality both inside and outside the ring.

Legendary figures from the territories will appear in the series, which will also feature re-enactments similar to “Dark Side of the Ring.”

Talk about reading the most random book to your kid. :heh:

Hey, bruh's starting em off young. :manny:

His sons gonna be like a Black FTR stanning Tully Blanchard and Midnight Express & The Von Erichs:heh:
It’s funny, he just watched that Von Erichs DSOTR the other week lol

He’s only 10 but he likes some of the series….I’m selective in which ones he sees though

Part of the reason I checked that Territories joint out is because he’s been into wrestling for a couple years but he’s HEAVY into it, and off the bat he knows it’s a work and all that

With his toys he does his own weekly Raw, SD, NXT, PPVs, I play with him when I’m over…he thinks of angles, who is heel/face, etc…

Dude, you might have a damn prodigy on your hands if you're not careful. :banderas:

We need more of those.

The stereotype is that the Black is just the athlete that played football, basketball, track, etc. . .and used his athleticism to get by.

Imagine a Black Bret Hart or Bryan Danielson, somebody who's loved it their whole lives. :blessed:

They wouldn't know what to do with that:wow:
