I watched the Dark side of the ring episode on the Von Erich family, it was one of the most heartbreaking things I've ever watched, I'll just say that there's a reason why they say the Von Erich family is cursed.

This is during the era of World Class Championship Wrestling. This is the territory of Fritz Von Erich and his sons. This is the era of Harley Race, Ric Flair, Bruiser Brody, Kamala, The Missing Link and The Fabulous Freebirds. Rest in Peace Texas Tornado.

This trailer is so full of testosterone it was flagged for doping 😂

for anyone not aware of the Von Erichs do NOT expect this to be a happy movie

The person who plays Fritz Von Erich was spot on. I recommend watching the dark side of the ring episode to see what truly happened. Tragic story

Alachia you should check out the prestige film The Wrestler by Darren Aronofsky and starring Mickey Rourke and Marissa Tomei. Its excellent.

World Class Championship Wrestling was the territory they were on top of from the Early to mid 1980s. You can see them wrestle on Peacock for Free, November 27th 1982 David Von Erich vs The Great Kabuki is a GREAT place to start, this is right before the territory EXPLODES in popularity after Christmas.

I'm not joking Zac could win The Oscar with the role of Kevin Von Erich, specially if the movie show the gun store story of Kevin

This actually looks way better than I thought it would look. The Von Erich story is pretty insane. Two suicides and another drug related death. Kerry's foot being partially amputated in a motorcycle accident and hiding it. The family were like gods in Texas. It might be a surprisingly good movie.

Zac Afron had one gnarly accident. Just like Mark Hamill, that accident aged his face

I saw a WWF live house show(no cameras) in the 90's. World Champ Ric Flair vs Intercontinental Champ Roddy Piper. These to very close friends were already drunk from the start & tuned it into a 45 minute "pull-his tights down" match. I have never seen so much ass. The 15000 fans loved it. I felt ripped-off because that is ALL they did the whole time.

My dad worked for a local TV station in Ft. Worth so I grew up going to Sat night wrestling. Fritz or Jack what ever you want to call him was always nice when me and my brother was around. His kids and use were all about the same age but never really interacted with them I don't have any bad mimories about them. By the late 70.s I was so burned out on wrestling I stopped going and never payed much attention to it after that.

I remember going to amateur wrestling in a rec center at the end of the 1990's. I watched a guy almost kill himself diving off chain-link fence and landing on his neck when the opponent rolled out. They sold it, he got right back up like spinal chord trauma didn't even exist. It's definitely a craft that is for people who're made up of something different from the majority of the rest of us. The movie is going to crush anyone who has a passion for anything.

Zac looks huge in the trailer but in real life he’s probably 5’8” in boots. But he’s short enough to play Wolverine 😜 It could turn out to be cheesy on steroids so I’m not too interested in it. I’m usually disappointed by A24 movies so I will probably wait for your review and stream it if you recommend it.

He looks so much like Kevin. Incredible.

I like the analogy of a play in regards to professional wrestling.(I like going to plays.) I have only been to one wrestling event, in the 1980's, in the Pacific Northwest. I watched them set up the ring, and it was so flexible that it was like a trampoline LOL Given the drought of films, I hope this one is OK.

I can't wait to see the Movie 🍿🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wow. Zac got ripped. I am curious to see this movie myself.

Wrestling is definitely an interactive performance. I'd compare it to the way a stand up comedian interacts with the audience. However the degree to which really depends on the individual wrestlers. Some wrestlers will choreograph the entire match ahead of time. While others will improvise the entire match based on the reactions of the crowd.

There was a professional wrestler with the stage name of Brutus Beefcake. He wrestled in the WWE in the 1980s, and in WCW in the 1990s. He had various runs as a “heel” wrestler, and as a “face/babyface” wrestler. Brutus Beefcake often worked with “Hulk” Hogan in tag-team matches. Today, Brutus Beefcake owns and operates a small pro wrestling promotion located in Boca Raton, Florida.

To be honest I would like to watch wonka and Iron claw around the same time

Sean Durkin is very decent director btw, he made “martha marcy may marlen” with Elizabeth Olsen, you should check it out if you haven’t seen

Every documentary I've seen gives the dad Fritz a free-pass on all this tragedy. I hope this film is more honest about this monster. Praising suicide is just one of the many ugly things he said & did. Kevin has been slowly revealing more now that he is the very last one alive. He still protects his dad's reputation though.

I have been a wrestling fan since I was 3 years old I am now 36. The von Eric family is legendary in the wrestling industry. There were a handful of wrestling promotions in the '80s with the advent of cable television that could have gone national. World class championship wrestling which is what the von Eric family ran was one of those promotions. They were incredibly popular in Israel of all places. The von Eric versus freebird feud is what really set that territory on the map in the early '80s. And cause a boom in the Dallas wrestling business. They reached the highest of highs that a chair is so we could do during that time. And then starting in 1984 that tragedy started to happen. It really is a story that is built for a movie I will be interested to see what they actually cover and what they leave out. A family of six brothers is down to one five of them all passed away by the age of 33.

The protein powder can cause kidney problems though, so it's best to take a level lower than they recommend. The protein powder DOES help for muscle build up, but you have to be super careful the amounts, I would take 1/2 or even 1/4 the amount they tell you.

An image of a beefcake Alachia is 😆🤣

Build your strength and your immune system will be stronger, too. 🙂

Did you get to see it yet? _Those Winter Sundays_ A poem by *Robert Hayden* Sundays too my father got up early and put his clothes on in the blueblack cold, then with cracked hands that ached from labor in the weekday weather made banked fires blaze. No one ever thanked him. I’d wake and hear the cold splintering, breaking. When the rooms were warm, he’d call, and slowly I would rise and dress, fearing the chronic angers of that house, Speaking indifferently to him, who had driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well. What did I know, what did I know of love’s austere and lonely offices? Just thought I'd add it.

Dude its super awesome to see a girl get hyped about the territories. My mother met the Von Erics as a teen and they were super nice to her. Im glad a new generation is realizing about them.

Zach efron looks so different it’s crazy

Have you seen fighting with my family It's about the storylines that get you hook the moves get you hype to see it play out

KAMPFKOLOSS!!! (german version of BEEFCAKE)

This brings up the deep question of "What does Alachia think about Mickey Rourke's (with a *HOT* helping assist from Marisa Tomei) 'The Wrestler' '??

If it's anything like the 'Heels' series I don't think if it's for me, but if it's anything like 'The Wrestler' I might give it a chance. I may not have been a Wrestling Fan for Years and Years now but I still enjoy watching some matches in particular the ones that I have already seen. And not only I'm really hoping that it would be more 'The Wrestler' and less 'Heels' as I think it would be nice to be given this urge to re-watch of the old wrestling matches that I enjoy watching. Oh sure I could do that do that with out watching 'The Wrestler' or the Star Trek Voyager Season 6 Episode 'Tsunkatse' but I find it that if I did I just wouldn't enjoy the match that I'm current watching at all. I need that Urge I need that Wrestling Fan of me to come out again before I could search out a particular wrestling match watch it and finally enjoy it. Which was why the first time that I watched 'Real Steel' I had this strong urge to watch one maybe two matches involving The Rock all because Atom was Dubbed the 'People's Champion' just like The Rock was whenever he is in the WWF/WWE. So to sum up I'm looking forward to watching 'The Iron Claw' yes but at the same time I'm kind of fearing that it might turn out to me like 'Heels'. Side note which is too bad as my all time Favorite Green Arrow (Stephen Amell) stars in that Series and for some reason they gave him a cheap Southern Accent. Which is why it's really not for me, along with them unnecessary swearing every second sentence. IMO, and this was just the first Five Minutes of the show. I guess saying "Heels You Have Failed This City" is kind of fitting for me.

It's such an incredibly sad, tragic story

What a strong trailer

The reason i love wrestleing is because the put ther bodys threw alot to enterian people an di also love wrestleing is because they there great story tellers that my prosepctive

Oh my days it looks like a new classic.

Dark side of the ring season 1 episode 4, its the Von Erichs story.

Only one left is Kevin. Kerry's suicide was the big shocker. Grew up watching the Von Erichs as a kid. Trailer looks awesome. They were so huge in DFW and as tragic as story is…can't wait to see it. You'll get your history on them down with film I'm sure. .. but feud with the Freebirds was epic.

RUSH is everywhere!

Kerry von erich is and always will be my favorite

This looks great ,HULKAMANIA 4 LIFE.🤘😆🤘

A24 has no bad movies, not a fan of his or of wrestling (Heels is great though), seems interesting.

Good reaction.

OMG what happened to Zac? Looks like he's going down the same road as Micky Rourke.

This one nothing but heartbreak and tears. The level of tragedy is just unreal. No thanks.

Beee3eeeeeeeeeeeefcaaaaaaaaake

Stone Cold Steve Austin said he never would've gotten into wrestling if it weren't for the Von Erichs. God bless the Von Erichs

i saw the a24 logo and tuned out🤷🏽‍♂️

Are you thinking of Brutus the barber beefcake

Hey protein actually aides with fat loss too :P I didn't learn about this until a week ago. That's probably one of the 2 main reasons we're all so fat. Not only is pretty much every food out there loaded with bad stuff but people's knowledge on diet/fitness is nonexistent.

i've seen kevin and kerry von eric in person when i was a kid and nobody here looks anything at all like them. but how could you? when the idea first came up i said where are you ever gonna get anybody as jacked up as kerry von eric? i saw kerry von eric beat the shit out of ric flair in a cage match in lawton, oklahoma. that guy doesnt look like him. and thats ok...its just a tragic and depressing story

Show us the strength training results

Strength training ≠ hypertrophy training

Alachia likes Buff 💪🏽 Zac Efron. Interesting 😏

And again full fucking plot of movie is in trailer.

I recomend the vice documentary Dark side of the ring : the fall of the vonerichs , if you want to know more about the subject of the movie

BEEF CAAKEE

Please react the trailer of Napoléon, thanks 👍

Will you watch and review Kraven the Hunter ?

You react trailer of Napoléon.Yes or no?

Look at the veins in your neck.

Its all about hormones 😜

Pretty drastic change from the pretentiousness of "Downton Abbey" aye?? Even British people about break out laughing talking about Americans being a complete SUCKER for costume dramas.

Wrestling isn't for me, so I'm going to skip watching this movie.
