15 Wrestlers’ Daughters Following In Their Parents’ Footsteps
14. Lacey Von Erich (Kerry Von Erich)
If youre looking at pedigree when evaluating talent, its hard to discount a third-generation member of the Von Erich family. The entire clan was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009 for their contributions to the industry. To WWE fans, the most famous member of the family is Kerry Von Erich, better known as the Texas Tornado. His daughter, Lacey, competed for several years, including a brief stint in WWEs developmental system. Laceys biggest run as a competitor came in TNA, where she was a member of the Beautiful People. During her year-plus run with the company, she held the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Championships. She left the company in late 2010 and now runs an advertising company in California. Although Lacey technically is retired, shes just 28. She still uses her ring name for her Twitter handle and lists her e-mail address for appearances. Lacey also spoke about the death of the Ultimate Warrior earlier this year, so she remains attached to the profession that her family was so involved in. Due to her age, its possible that she could get involved in wrestling again, though it probably wouldnt be a full-time deal.
Scott is a former journalist and longtime wrestling fan who was smart enough to abandon WCW during the Monday Night Wars the same time as the Radicalz. He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
