During a recent appearance on “The A2theK Wrestling Show,” WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Von Erich remembered his late brother and former WWF star, Kerry Von Erich.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On his brother Kerry being into bodybuilding: “For me, I lifted weights but it was because I wanted to be a better wrestler, but Kerry wanted the bodybuilder thing.”
On how Kerry felt about his foot amputation: “To Kerry, he was a cripple, he was a freak and he was just completely crushed inside about what he’d done. He loved to have fun. He didn’t hurt anybody but he did hurt himself.”
On why he thinks Kerry took his own life: “The reason Kerry killed himself is because of that … he felt like he let us all down.”
Kerry died by suicide with a single gunshot to the heart on February 18, 1993, on his father Fritz Von Erich’s ranch in Denton County, Texas, just 15 days after his 33rd birthday.
