Kurt and Karl Von Steiger were the ring names of Canadian professional wrestlers Lorne Corlett (died November 8, 2022) and Arnold Pastrick. The Von Steiger gimmick was that of two German villains, called heels, despite them hailing from Gladstone, Manitoba. Arnold Pastrick used the name Kurt Von Steiger, and Lorne Corlett worked as Karl Von Steiger.[1] The Von Steigers are best known for competing in Pacific Northwest Wrestling in Portland, Oregon, between 1968 and 1973 but also competed in Tennessee, San Francisco, Stampede Wrestling, Australia, the American Wrestling Alliance and the Carolina territory.
