In the new clip, host Conrad Thompson speaks with Dark Side creators Evan Husney and Jason Eisner, who reveal that Earl Hebner was worried that they were Canadian assassins who came to take revenge over the events at WWF Survivor Series 1997. This was when they had initially reached out to Hebner, and Hebner actually texted his wife once he realized he was safe. The show airs tonight at 9:00 PM EST on VICE TV.
