Who were the Von Erichs ?
Technically speaking, there were no Von Erichs. The Adkisson family adopted the “Von Erich” persona as their wrestling name for many years. Throughout the years, there has been no fewer than 8 Von Erich family members competing in pro wrestling, making them one of the true wrestling families of the new era. They included Fritz, Waldo, Kevin, David, Kerry, Chris, Mike, Lance and Mark. Kerry achieved the most success in the ring (WCW champion and WWF I-C champion) and is also important to note that not all members of the “Von Erich” family were really related.
