WWE signs first third generation supertar from the Von Erich Family!!!!!

[Angryphilip2]

World Wrestling Entertainment has apparently signed Lacey Adkisson, the daughter the late Kerry Von Erich to a (presumably) developmental deal. On her MySpace.com page, Adkisson announced, "Just signed with WWE!! Following daddy's foot steps...! Wish me luck!!"

Lacey, 21 years old, would be the the first third-generation member of the famous Von Erich wrestling family, who were the centerpiece of the legendary World Class Championship Wrestling territory based out of Dallas, Texas. WWE is slated to release a WCCW documentary DVD set this December.

Lacey's father Kerry, a former NWA World and WWF Intercontinental champion, was considered one of the top babyfaces of the 1980s. He passed away in 1993 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Thanks to Matt Aponte for his help.

after what that family has been through i doubt she would even consider that...

but i could see her having a run with the belt based on her family history because i have no idea how good she is in the ring

I think she could be a godo Heel considering the ability to use her family name as a "Respect Me" sort of thing; a Randy Orton type thing, minus the Legend Killer thing obiously.
