Kevin Von Erich
- Actor
- Director
At his best when he wrestled with his brothers, Kevin Von Erich's victories most often came while performing as a tag team with Kerry, David, and Mike. Kevin largely retired from wrestling after losing his brothers, leaving the ring as an individual competitor in 1995.
The only surviving member of his immediate family, Kevin has rejected the existence of a Von Erich curse. Kevin has frequently told the story of his lost family through interviews and documentary appearances. Two of his sons wrestle, as their father and uncles before them, as a tag team. The Von Erich family inspired the 2023 film The Iron Claw, directed by Sean Durkin and starring Zac Efron, Jeremy Allen White, and Harris Dickinson as Kevin, Kerry, and David Von Erich, respectively.
