Ross Von Erich and Marshall Von Erich want to honor their family's legacy in Japan.
Ross and Marshall Von Erich are the Ring of Honor World Six-Man Tag Team Champions alongside Dustin Rhodes. However, as the sons of Kevin Von Erich, their family has a strong tie to the world of Japanese wrestling as well.
During a recent edition of the Claw Pod, Ross and Marshall Von Erich were asked if they had any interest in capturing New Japan Pro-Wrestling's NEVER Openweight Six-Man Tag Team Championships. They reviewed that not only are they interested in that particular accolade but they also want to honor the legacy of Kevin Von Erich and the memory of their uncle David Von Erich by capturing the All Asia Tag Team Championship belts linked to All Japan Pro-Wrestling.
"Oh, man. That would obviously a huge title to hold. If not now, then at some point. But yeah, that’d be massive. We’d enjoy doing that," said Ross Von Erich.
"Another set of belts that we’ve had our eyes on are, I don’t want to butcher the name, but Dad and Uncle Dave held them, I don’t know if it was uncle Kerry with them, but it was the All Japan belts," Marshall added. "Ross and I always thought it would be cool to win belts in All Japan just for the history."
David Von Erich and Kevin Von Erich captured the All Asia Tag Team Championships in 1981 and held the title for 19 days between May 23 and June 11.
