This week on The Claw Pod, we're diving deep into one of the most pivotal moments in pro wrestling history—the split between World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW) and the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). Kevin Von Erich joins us once again for an in-depth discussion on why his father, Fritz Von Erich, along with David, Kerry, and Kevin himself, decided to break away from the NWA and establish their own world champion.
We also explore the behind-the-scenes drama, from Ric Flair’s absence in Texas to the business decisions that shaped WCCW’s future. Plus, Kevin shares never-before-heard stories about Rick Rude, wild road stories, and how social media would’ve changed the game for wrestlers back in the day.
Along the way, we get classic Von Erich family moments—Kevin’s hilarious roadside antics, tales of growing up in the wrestling business, and a look at what made WCCW such a revolutionary force.
