Kerry Von Erich was my favorite wrestler. I got an opportunity to meet him once when he was a passenger on an aircraft I was working. He was with several other wrestlers & managers. He was very gracious in letting me take a photograph of him & myself.  The schedule these guys had to maintain while touring was grueling to say the least. Flying from city to city every day while trying to maintain a workout schedule & eating properly on the road etc...Thank you for posting this. R.I.P. Kerry

Poor Fritz had to watch em all die but one. Poor guy. And 3 suicides? Please don't let that ever be an option people. I have seen people's testimonies that have been brought bck to life after suicide and had a horrible story to tell. Just hang in there! If times are as bad as they can get then they can only get better.

I didn't even know he died until years later when my older brother got the internet, I just remember him being on WWF and then all the sudden he wasn't, was always hoping he'd come back like the Ultimate Warrior did from time to time. Sucks how WWF used to not even let their fans know when a big time star died.

The main person to blame for the suicides was Fritz/Jack the father he wouldnt listen to the guys when they came to him and told him that his boys where addicted to drugs and abusing them he fired the messenger and he never from what I understand made them feel that they had something that made them special and set them apart the only one that had his mind in the right place was Kevin he worked hard and lives for his family the others did to they needed to here that they where great no matter
