Due to his diminutive height (5'5"), asthma, and highly fragile bones that were susceptible to fractures, Chris was unable to attain the same level of success as his father and siblings. Driven by an immense passion for wrestling, he persevered through multiple injuries, making numerous efforts to achieve success in the squared circle. He engaged in a significant battle with Percy Pringle in the USWA/World Class, but his professional journey did not achieve the same level of success as the rest of his family. Occasionally, he and his brothers Kerry and Kevin, along with Chris Adams, engaged in tag-team wrestling battles against Percy Pringle and Steve Austin.

Leonhard Von Eck was a German chancellor, or head of government of Bavaria, therefore held a high status and role in society, revealing him as a probable reliable source (doc 1). As chancellor, Von Eck regulated order in society and was accustomed to the behavior of the peasants during this time period. He states that “the peasants are blinded, led astray, and made witless”, which displayed their lack of knowledge (doc 1). Ignorance of the peasants revealed that they, themselves are not dependable, thus, not reliable. Von Eck demonstrates this idea through the quote, “they could change their minds within an hour.” However, Von Eck showed accuracy as he emphasizes facts instead of opinions. His purpose in writing this report was to express his disagreements about Protestantism and how the “Word of God”, “the Gospel” in addition to “brotherly love”, were critical influences in their religious lives. Their “blindness” as Von Eck states, was caused by the utmost control of the Catholic Church.
