Dark Side of the Ring: The Last of the Von Erichs" is an episode from the acclaimed documentary series "Dark Side of the Ring," which delves into the darker and often tragic stories from the world of professional wrestling. This particular episode focuses on the Von Erich family, a legendary wrestling dynasty known for both their in-ring success and the series of tragedies that befell them.  The Von Erich family, led by patriarch Fritz Von Erich (real name Jack Adkisson), became a wrestling sensation with Fritz and his six sons: Kevin, David, Kerry, Mike, Chris, and Jack Jr. The family’s prominence in the wrestling world, particularly in Texas, made them icons of the sport. However, their legacy is marred by numerous personal tragedies, including the untimely deaths of five of Fritz's sons.  Kevin Von Erich, the last surviving brother, provides a deeply personal account of the family's highs and lows. The documentary explores the pressures of living up to the family name, the impact of their fame, and the emotional and psychological toll of their numerous losses. The episode also touches on the so-called "Von Erich curse," a term used to describe the string of misfortunes and deaths within the family.  Dark Side of the Ring" is known for its thorough research, compelling interviews, and dramatic re-enactments. The episode on the Von Erichs features interviews with family members, friends, and wrestling industry insiders who shed light on both the triumphs and tragedies of the Von Erich family. It is a poignant exploration of how success and sorrow intertwined in the lives of one of wrestling's most famous families.  Hear From Texas wrestling legend jack of all trades David Manning, Wrestling Observer writer and owner David Meltzer ,for sure known as the best wrestling  journalist of the dirt sheets with a autistic level of knowledge and writing, Jim Cornette the Wrestling Mastermind who has done it all and is the most knowledgeable wrestling historian to date, and the only Von Erich Brother left Kevin who barely has a mind left from years of drug abuse and heartache.  They try to clean this up but it's even worse then darkside puts it.  Buckle up - Tear Jerker narrated by Dirty Dutch Mantell
