Vice Media is currently producing episodes for Season 3 of its critically acclaimed series Dark Side Of The Ring.

According to PWInsider, Season 3 will include an episode devoted to the late Tom Billington, better known as Dynamite Kid. Interviews will include his first wife Michelle, their children, and his former sister-in-law Julie Hart.

He exited WWE in 1988, returning to Stampede Wrestling, and later working with AJPW. He retired in 1996 due to injuries, which left his bound to a wheelchair.

Billington passed in 2018 on his 60th birthday.
