Marshall and Ross Von Erich are an American professional wrestling tag team, consisting of brothers Marshall and Ross Adkisson. They are the sons of Kevin Von Erich. They were signed to Major League Wrestling, where they are former World Tag Team Champions.

Professional wrestling career

The brothers debuted for Pro Wrestling Noah on July 22, 2012.[4] In July 2017, Marshall and Ross along with their father Kevin, wrestled at the Rage Megashow in Israel.[5]

The brothers later made their national television debut as part of the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) Slammiversary XII PPV on June 15, 2014, in a tag match defeating The BroMans via disqualification.[6] They also made various appearances on TNA Xplosion including the April 1, 2015 episode defeating the team of Sonjay Dutt and John Yurnet.[7] and losing to The Revolution members James Storm and Manik on the July 1, 2015 episode.[8] Marshall and Ross later rematched The Revolution at the TNA One Night Only Gut Check event on September 15, 2015 in a losing effort.[9] Living in Hawaii, Ross and Marshall appeared and competed in Action Zone Wrestling out of Oahu, Hawaii and won the tag team championships. In May 2019, Ross and Marshall signed a multi-year contract with Major League Wrestling (MLW).[10][11] On November 2, 2019, Marshall and Ross Von Erich defeated The Dynasty (Maxwell Jacob Friedman and Richard Holliday) to become the new MLW World Tag Team Champions at MLW Saturday Night SuperFight.[12]

On July 31, 2022, the Von Erich brothers lost to Mark and Jay Briscoe via pinfall, at the Ric Flair's Last Match pay-per-view event in Nashville, Tennessee.

In December 2023 the brothers would make their debut appearances for All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and its sister promotion Ring of Honor (ROH), first at the taping of Rampage during the second part of AEW's 2023 Winter Is Coming (teaming with Orange Cassidy in a successful six-man tag match), and then at Zero Hour during ROH's 2023 Final Battle in a winning tag match. Both the AEW and ROH matches were held in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, where their grandfather, father, and uncles were local legends.

Personal life

They are the sons of former professional wrestler Kevin Von Erich[13] making them members of the Von Erich Family. Their grandfather was Fritz Von Erich and their uncles were professional wrestlers David Von Erich, Kerry Von Erich, Mike Von Erich, and Chris Von Erich. They are cousins of former professional wrestler and current promoter Lacey Von Erich.
