Marshall Von Erich says The Von Erichs' time is coming soon.
The Von Erichs (Marshall and Ross Von Erich) are former MLW World Tag Team Champions, and they have made appearances for AEW and ROH. They previously competed for TNA and other promotions as well. As the sons of Kevin Von Erich, the brothers are members of one of the most legendary families in wrestling history.
Speaking on The Von Erichs Podcast, Marshall and Ross were asked to comment on why they have not gone to WWE yet.
“The reason we haven’t gone to a major company yet is, it’s definitely in the cards, but Ross and I, we had an opportunity to go to WWE, to do a tryout. We both didn’t feel like it was time because once you go, you’re showing this is what we have to offer, this is the best of what we have to offer. We didn’t feel like we were at our best yet. So why would we go when we don’t feel like we’re at the top or whatever? So we wanted to give it some time, and that’s kind of what the move from Hawaii was. We were in Hawaii. We’ve picked family over wrestling. I’ll never forget, I was [at the] Hall of Fame, Michael Hayes was [getting inducted], and my dad was inducting. I was sitting there looking at all the wrestlers and everybody up front. I was like, this is what I wanted to do. I was looking at it and all the guys were talking about how many marriages they had, and I’ve been married to the business, and I’ve done this, I’ve done that. They almost bragged about how many failed marriages they had. I was sitting there looking at it, I was like, ‘Man. I don’t know if this is it.’ But what else is it? If I’m gonna wrestle, I want to get to the top of it, but this is the top. I don’t know if I want to be here. At the time, that’s where my head was at. I started having sons and stuff, and talking to Ross, we both felt like we’re getting polished enough where I could go anywhere and have a good wrestling match. I know what I’m doing now. Before, the time they called us, we didn’t. So right now, we feel like we’re polished and ready. We could go wrestle anywhere. I feel like it’s coming, it’s coming soon. So this is like the calm before the storm. We’ve been in conversations with both companies and stuff. So we’re kind of just seeing where it goes, but it feels like the calm before a storm because I got a feeling it’s coming soon. I would love to talk on it more, but there’s some stuff I can’t really talk about yet," Marshall Von Erich said.
During the podcast, the Von Erichs also stated that they wanted to face Cody and Dustin Rhodes. Check out their comments here.
