00:00 Ever since I was a child, people said my family was cursed.
00:07 Mom tried to protect us with God.
00:09 Pop tried to protect us with wrestling.
00:11 He said if we were the toughest, the strongest, nothing could ever hurt us.
00:17 I believed him.
00:19 We all did.
00:20 Morning.
00:21 Pants tomorrow, please, David.
00:22 Kerry, I want you to join your brothers in the ring.
00:30 Yes, sir.
00:31 I'd love that.
00:32 Now, we all know Kerry's my favorite, then Kev, then David, then Mike, but the rankings
00:37 can always change.
00:38 What do you want in life, Kevin, go on, Eric?
00:39 More ribs.
00:40 I want to be with my family.
00:41 You know, be with my brothers.
00:42 What do you like to do with your brothers?
00:43 Together, we can do anything.
01:03 We're here to restore justice to the wrestling federation that our father built with his
01:07 own two hands.
01:08 The hands that will pass down to us, the hands that will deliver the ironcloth to you.
01:14 So what do you think?
01:16 That we're alive.
01:18 I love your family, Kev.
01:21 You want me to call?
01:24 Yes, sir.
01:25 Oh, man, that makes me so happy.
01:26 I talked to you about something, Mom.
01:27 It's too tough on us.
01:28 You got to say something.
01:29 David, that's what your brother's for.
01:30 You feel that?
01:31 You feel that?
01:32 That's pressure.
01:33 You're pushing too hard.
01:34 I'm fine.
01:35 I'm fine.
01:36 I'm fine, Kev.
01:38 Seriously, I'm just sick.
01:41 Don't scare me.
01:43 I don't know how to control.
01:46 That was a terrible accident.
01:49 I should have stopped him.
01:51 I need to think about my family.
01:53 Your job is to wrestle.
01:54 Live up to that deal or we are through.
01:57 I told you to look out for him.
02:00 I just love being out there with you guys.
02:02 It's the only thing that matters to me.
02:05 The Bonner will forever be the greatest family in the history of wrestling.
