I didn't want to derail the other thread...
Since you're obviously a huge wrestling fan (I loved that spill you gave) I'm very curious about what you and wrestling fans in general think of the Von Eric family dynasty and the way it ended. Is David the only one left now and is he still fighting? I've always thought the tragedies that hit their family were very suspicious... but I don't have a theory about it.
I was fortunate enough to watch all the Von Erics wrestle, and to see Kerry take the World Title from Ric Flair...WOW!
It is sad that the Von Erics, who were to wrestling, what the Kennedys were to politics (same end results too, huh? very strange)ended in so much tragedy and pain.
I have my own theory on them being "stopped" since daddy Fritz was fast becoming a very powerful force in the promotion biz, what with all his sons being top draws and all.
Coincidence? I think not.
The Harts were on course for the same dynasty... very sad.

I agree. The whole thing has always seemed way too coincidental and suspicious. How do that many young men in the same family die? It's always raised a red flag to me... but, I didn't know what the wrestling fans thought had happened... and I think they would know more about the real truth then any of the media speculations.
