Von Erick came to the screening held at the Lev Cinema in Tel Aviv after already visiting the Hostages and Missing Persons Families Forum, including Eli Shtivi, whose son Idan Shtivi was kidnapped from the NOVA music festival, and was personally invited by the wrestler to the premiere.
"I will do everything I can to help," Von Erick said, who was very moved by the love and support he received. Hundreds of spectators came to the screening of the film starring Zac Efron and Jeremy Allen White based on his family story - the Von Erich brothers, who made history in the 80s when they completely dominated the world of professional wrestling.
On Friday, he held a meeting with children of the Gaza border communities during which he also gave a wrestling lesson. He then toured around the region and met fans. Next week, he is scheduled to meet with President Isaac Herzog in Jerusalem.
