dubious tag

I marked a sentence "dubious". If a professional wrestler never wanted to wrestle, this very clearly needs some citations and sources. Hence the tag. --Storkk 01:12, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin Von Erich stated in a 2003(?) shoot interview that Mike never wanted to be a wrestler, this has also been stated in numerous other interviews with people that worked in the World Class promotion at the time. Are you ok with the tag being removed? Sasaki 07:50, 9 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can read the Penthouse Magazine article somewhere on the 'Net. I'm not sure what the sites name was; I googled "Born Again Bashing". Look for something called THE NEW WAWLI and scroll down. Great article. Brighat 20:05, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

citation

I was wondering if it would be possible to either offer a citation for the information about the allegations of Mike's sexual behavior "with underage girls" or to simply delete it until one can be obtained. It seems like that family has been through enough without unverified accusations of this nature floating around on a venue such as this.Frankenpop (talk) 02:25, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Death?

Is there a citation for the method of suicide Mike used? It's been widely reported that he died of an overdose of drugs and was found dead in the woods in his sleeping bag. The drowining story, unless there is proof, is a fabrictation.24.187.134.112 (talk) 15:25, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kerry's foot

Based on the time frame, I'm guessing the ankle injury the article refers to Kerry having is about his motorcycle crash. And if it is, I think calling that an ankle injury is understating things a little, he had his entire foot amputated. Which played a pretty significant factor in his eventual suicide. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.132.55.47 (talk) 03:45, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Toxic shock

I remember the reason given back then for his death was toxic shock syndrome not suicide. 2600:100E:B08D:9EFF:BDE7:46BB:2EB2:B0BD (talk) 04:34, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
