The story: Fritz Von Erich was once an aspiring professional wrestler, the inventor of the infamous "iron claw".

It had always been his dream to become a world heavyweight wrestling champion.

When Fritz's dream did not come true for himself,  he decided he had another chance at being a champion through one of his four doting sons.
