@Trashfished so i guess you support obammas ass real good too and want to live under anarchy cause tahs what hes making this country now so go live in another country ,traitor
Great video. Too many Von Erich videos on youtube focus on the tragady. This one shows how the Von Erichs should be remembered, as amazing performers. Thanks for the memories!
Thanks so much for this video tribute to the Von Erichs. You really did an awesome job. I loved the music choice. What I really loved was that it was an upbeat video. We all remember the tragedy. This video didn't make you think of that. It reminded you of the pure joy of watching the Boys at their best. Thanks again.
your welcome. I grew up in Texas watching the Von Erichs. I loved watching them wrestle. As a kid they were my hero's. To me they were larger than life. my mom and dad would take me to see them all the time, I could not wait! My memories of Von Erichs were of fun times and good feelings, so that is what I was shooting for with this video.
thanks, It was great making this video, it took me back to a time, when werstling was so much fun to be a part of! Good guys were good and bad guys were bad. And the Von Erich's were always winners! You could watch them and feel good about what you were seeing.
Wrestling in the 80s was 1,000,000 times better than the crap we get now. I haven't watched wrestling in over 5 years. I used a to be huge fan in the 80s & 90s. The 80s was the best time to be a wrestling fan. The magic is gone!
No faction in wrestling history will ever compare to the Von Erichs. Atleast Kevin is still around! I always liked his in ring work the best out of the bunch personally. Pretty impressive when you can wrestle 400+ matches in a single year!
So so sweet. I remember I cried for DAYS after each one of them passed away. Wrestling would be so much better had they been around...better than all this theatrical drama bullshit that goes on now.
I was at the Sportatorium when they made the announcement about David,back in '84.You could feel the tension all over Dallas like something was wrong.On a different subject,go check out the Jack in the Box Stoner commercial here on youtube.Just look at the driver's face!!!
their matches were the best.i used to have alot of videos of them i taped off of espn in the late 80's(more of kevin/kerry),but i don't any more.i did keep two tapes,i would wear them out watching them,then.kerry was my fav,now dave is.
this is a great video of dave,kevin and kerry.i just wished they were still alive to wrestle anyone.watching the von erich's wrestle is better than watching today's wrestling!!
Thank you, I do find myself watching these old matches with the Von Erich's more than I watch whats on tv today. So, I guess that means that I enjoy those matches more than what the WWE is putting out now.
Great video - World Class and the Von Erichs RULES! It breaks my heart what happened to the family. Had David lived I can only imagine how great a feud it would have been seeing him fight Ric Flair through the 80s!
Granted Hogan had some classics in AJPW, but for the moreover he was carried in those matches & I'm glad Gagne never made'm champion during his AWA days. Cause really weather it be the AJPW, AWA, WCW, or wwFe Hogan had no idea how to wrestle
Who knows - but as a wrestling fan I wonder how different the sport would be today if he lived? He was going to be NWA Champion. I think it is safe to say David Von Erich vs Ric Flair would have been the dominant feud of the 80s - rather than the awful Flair vs Rhodes matches. The WCCW might have gone national. It is pretty amazing that we are still 25 years later discussing how one man might have changed wrestling entirely from what it is today!
exactly & even if David had lived on during the 1990's I would have loved to see David Von Erich Vs "Natural" Dustin Rhodes (if Dustin was in WCCW, as well as pushed properly & never made into Goldust or recently Black Reign)
these legend i used to watch every saturday on tv when i was 5 years old and my favorate of them was kery von erich. i remeber his amzing perfect body. i miss him. may he rest in peace.
This is the best video ever of just David, Kevin, & Kerry. I sure miss those days, and miss them. Watching these tributes brings back great memories. I have about 11 vcr tapes of them that I taped during 84 through about 86. I've got some great matches and still watch them from time to time. I really think the Von Erichs were heroes of pro wrestling and there will never be anyone that compares to the brothers.
Hey this was a good tribute but how can you have a vid about one of the greatest wrestling families without having Mike and Chris in the vid..im from Dallas,Texas and im somewhat insulted lol
I loved the von erics and Iceman king parsons they were my favorites! I used to love when they would come to taylor county. they were larger than life!
Yep, We would watch them every time they were there. There was one match where David Von Erich was up in the crowd and he was going to fight Kabuki. Kabuki was in the ring and David crawled under the seats and came up on the other side of the ring. He came up from behind Kabuki and rolled him up and won the match, it was great.
That was fuckin awsome! i love the von erichs, i wanna see more, they are the greatest. My favorite is kevin no one flew off the top ropes like him. They should honor the von erichs as great american heros, there should be statues of em in dallas.
That would be great to see. the Von Erich statues were the sportatorium stood! They were the beset of all time, I loved to watch them when I was a kid. I grew up with the Von Erichs they were my heroes! And your right Kevin flew like no one else!
If i do win the lottery i will seriously look into getting statues made of all of them. Because i cant explain how much fun it was just to watch them wrestle on tv. i counted down the days and hours until i could watch them again.
The Von Erichs are my favorite wrestlers of all time! I watched them as a kid growing up in Texas. My Dad would take me to the Taylor County Coliseum in Abilene Texas to see them wrestle. They were larger than life too me as a 8 year old kid. I got up on the ring and shook their hands before they would start the matches. Man that was the days! You could get right up there with your heroes and talk with them. It will never be like that again. I miss watching them, they were the best!
You're right. The days of great wrestling are probably gone forever, but man, the memories and impression they left on the young fans seem like they'll last forever!! I just wish the young fans today knew what they missed from when we were kids. WWE doesn't deserve to be in the same profession as the old World Class and NWA.
didnt they come out once using the yellow rose of tx song? i think was at texas stadium?
