In the 18-49 demographic, the special drew a 0.12 rating, which was 68th best on cable for the day and up from last week's 0.10 rating. The Dark Side: After Dark that aired afterwards did not crack the top 150 among cable telecasts in the 18-49 demographic.

This week's viewership number for Dark Side of the Ring was the second-highest for the season, behind the March 24 season premiere, a two-hour special on the Chris Benoit tragedy. 

Next Tuesday's episode will focus on Owen Hart's death. Dark Side of the Ring airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET on Vice.
