This was just a movie, not a documentary. The writers and directors probably weren’t even alive to have seen Fritz wrestle. I loved the movie because it was a good movie, good characters, good settings, good story. I never once expected it to accurately portray the lives of this family. They didn’t even include one of the brothers, and they stated this before even releasing it. Why are people taking this to heart and assuming it’s absolute?

part of me thinks he may not know how bad things were growing up or not be able to acknowledge it

He knows, but he chooses for him and his brothers to accept responsibility rather than point the finger at his dad.

THATS A LIE PEOPLE LIKE GARY HART TOLD FRITZ HIS SONS WERE DOING COCAINE AND DRUGS BUT FRITZ LOOKED THE OTHER WAY. THIS IS THE REAL STORY OF LOOKING THE OTHER WAY AND DRUGS WILL DISAPPEAR AND IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.

I understand that sometimes children ( son's and daughters ) are open to circumstantial situations that might cause them to fall victim to unfathomable heartaches. But, ( and a big But ) if there are multiple suicides and deaths do to substance abuse, who is really and ultimately accountable< respectfully.

KEVIN IS THE ONE YEARS AGO THAT SAID HIS FATHER WAS VIOLENT AND TOUGH EVERY STEP HE DID. OUTSIDERS SAID FRITZ WAS A BULLY. FRITZ PUSHED HIS BOYS INTO WRESTLING AND WHILE PEOPLE LIKE GARY HART WERE TELLING HIM HIS SONS WERE INTO THE DRUGS, NOT SHOWIHG UO FIR MATCHES AND FRITZ LOOKED THE OTHER WAY WHICH EVENTUALLY CAUSED THE DEATH OF HIS 5 SONS. WHY DID THERE MOTHER LEAVE FRITZ.. DONT MAKE A PIECE OF COAL INTO A DIAMOND. LETS TELL THE REAL STORY ON THE VON ERICHS.. ITS A HORRIBLE FAMILY WHOS ONLY CARE WAS HOW MUCH MONEY THET COULD MAKE. KEVIN IS SUPPOSE TO BE A CHRISTIAN GUY BUY LIES EVERY STEP IN THIS STORY. SPOILED AND DRUGS LET THIS WHOLE FAMILY INTO COMMITTING SUICIDE. YOU CAN TELL KEVIN IS,STARTING TO GET DEMENTIA THE WAY HE'S TALKING. HE CLAIMED HAWAII WAS HIS BLESSING BUT HERE HE IS BACK IN TEXAS AND AND PUSHING HIS SONS INTO THE SAME ROTTEN BUSINESS OF PRO WRESTLING. TELL THE REAL STORY KEVIN KERRY HAD THE ACCIDENTS BECAUSE HE WAS ON DRUGS ABD FRITZ NEVER STEPPED UP TO HAVE THE SONS PUT INTO DRUG REHABS.

Thank you Kevin for the interview and condolences for your losses you have had to endure in your lifetime, I hope you right that book one day. You are an inspiration mate. Also thanks to Unleashed TV for giving the platform for the truth and asking great questions, good job guys.

The Von Eric family were and still are my people. What Kevin has over came speaks volumes on how he was raised and the man he has become and the young men he has raised. And yes I’m as big of a fan of Ross and Marshal as I am of the other guys. Kevin is trying to explain what is nobody’s business to begin with. The problem is the Von Eric’s are and were bigger then any celebrity of the time

@@johndcornell6341 it’s actually way more complicated than that. I know the family very well. They were never the same after the first child died at the age of six. After so much tragedy she really didn’t wanna be around anybody man. You gotta think you lose five of your sons you probably, nowhere near the same person, especially when it comes to being around people. The whole family was dealing with grief. Kevin and the whole family talks much more in detail about this on their new podcast if you have not seen it.

I wish he would stop throwing his brothers under the bus about the drugs. The drugs started for everyone waaay before the motorcycle accident. Here in Texas their drug issues were well known. There are too many wrestlers also telling the same story about Fritz and their drug use. You can’t rewrite the story, Brother. Maybe that is what helps him sleep at night.

If you want the truth about the von Erichs... please find OLD OLD DOCUMENTARIES/ VIDEOS from the early 2000s by just normal people. Kevin is too reheased and believes his own crap. Vids being made recently gloss over alot of information for time constraints. the movie was good to watch but 90% drama.
