'A new generation' of the Von Erich wrestling family is returning to San Antonio
Posted: Aug 16th 2018 By: Madelyn Mendoza
San Antonio wrestling fans will soon reunite with the Von Erichs.
Ross and Marshall Von Erich, sons of Kevin Von Erich, will headline an event on Sept. 8 at Retama Park Horse Race Track in Selma. River City Wrestling and World Class Revolution Pro's United We Stand event will give local wrestling fans the chance to witness "a new generation of Von Erichs." The brothers will wrestle, but their card has not been released yet, Brandon Oliver with River City Wrestling told mySA.com.
Kevin Von Erich is the eldest of six sons born to wrestling giant Fritz Von Erich, who once packed matches at San Antonio's Municipal Auditorium in the 1960s. The wrestling family's patriarch went on to run World Class Championship Wrestling, a promotional group. Each of Fritz' sons, aside from Jack Jr., who died as a child, entered the ring under the WCCW, creating a enduring legacy in the wrestling world.
Kevin Von Erich is the only surviving son of Fritz Von Erich, who died in 1997. The family was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009.
