There are several family members on WWE's roster that the company seems to ignore

Being part of the WWE roster has become something of a family affair in recent years with many wrestlers being able to sign their contracts alongside their siblings or even their parents.

The most famous siblings in WWE history have to be The Hardy Boyz and The Bella Twins. The company continues to acknowledge a number of current family members that make sense in their storylines, like the Bellas, but there are some who continue to be ignored.

At present, there are two interesting family feuds on SmackDown where WWE is acknowledging that there are real-life family members on their roster, but there are others who have been completely forgotten.


#5 WWE Acknowledges: Dominik and Rey Mysterio

Dominik Mysterio has become quite the star in WWE over the past few months, despite only signing a contract with the company back in August. The son of Rey Mysterio has been an integral part of the feud between Seth Rollins and his father over the past few months and it's also allowed the rest of his family to be introduced to the WWE Universe.

Aalyah, Dominik's sister, has now become a part of the feud but it appears that she is now on Murphy's side and could be set to turn against her whole family, while their mother Angie has made various appearances when needed.

This isn't the first time Dominik has been part of a feud alongside his father since the eight-year-old was a main part of a custody battle between Eddie Guerrero and Mysterio back in 2005. It was only a long time later that Dominik decided that he wanted to follow in his father's footsteps.

Dominik is now just 22 years old and is already one of the main stars on the SmackDown brand.

#4 WWE ignores: Tamina and Roman Reigns

It is well-known that Tamina Snuka is the daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Snuka, even though the company has since removed her last name following his death back in 2017.

Snuka made her WWE debut back in 2010 alongside The Usos, who are also her family members. Whilst WWE has made it clear that The Usos and Roman Reigns are related, Tamina was recently drafted over to SmackDown and is yet to become part of this family faction.

Even though Tamina is only related through marriage, it has been well documented that she is still very close to The Usos and Naomi. When her father Jimmy Snuka married Sharon Georgi back in 1964, he became a part of the famous Anoa'i family.

Tamina has since become part of this family as well and is now a distant relative of Roman Reigns. The star even reacted to the current family storyline on her Twitter page last week but is yet to become a part of the feud on WWE TV.

#3 WWE acknowledges: Humberto Carrillo and Angel Garza

Humberto Carrillo and Angel Garza are easily two of the most exciting up-and-coming stars in WWE at present. When Garza was brought up to the RAW roster earlier this year, he was the shock opponent of his own cousin, who was feuding with Andrade at the time.

WWE made it clear that the two men were related and had worked closely together throughout their careers, even though both men had different routes to WWE. The fact that Garza is Carrillo's cousin added to the shock factor of his debut and the feud that then ignited, but it was still relatively short-lived.

Garza has since split with Andrade and is now looking to debut a much more forward version of his character after being claimed by RAW in the recent draft.

Humberto Carrillo hasn't been seen on WWE TV in a number of weeks, but he also remained on RAW following the 2020 Draft which means that the two cousins could re-ignite their feud in the future.

#2 WWE ignores: Bo Dallas and Bray Wyatt

Bray Wyatt has become one of the biggest stars in the company over the past year after he returned from hiatus and debuted his new character, The Fiend. Whilst Wyatt is a former WWE and Universal Champion, his younger brother, Bo Dallas, hasn't faired as well in WWE and many fans have questioned why he hasn't joined Wyatt's Fun House.

Bo Dallas is a former NXT Champion and had the best run of his career whilst working in developmental. But since he was moved up to the main roster he hasn't been able to recreate the same level of work.

Dallas has been away from WWE TV for more than a year and his B-Team partner Curtis Axel was released from the company back in April. As of yet, there is no news on any plans for Bo Dallas, who just seems to be waiting on the sidelines for creative direction.

Despite it being common knowledge that Bo Dallas and Bray Wyatt are brothers, WWE has never acknowledged this on-screen and continue to ignore the fact that the two men are related.

#1 WWE acknowledges: The Usos and Roman Reigns

This is easily the biggest storyline on WWE TV at present since Roman Reigns now believes that he is The Tribal Chief and the person who sits at the top of the table. The Usos and Reigns have been on the same page before and were known as The Bloodline when they teamed together, but as a heel, it's a completely different dynamic.

Roman Reigns has become something completely different since returning to WWE earlier this year. Over the past few months, he has forced his cousin to fall in line and follow his lead. Whilst Jimmy Uso isn't expected to make a full WWE return until 2021, Jey Uso is the one who is now being forced to stand by Reigns' side.

WWE has always pushed forward the fact that Reigns and The Usos are related because the trio grew up together. It will be interesting to see how Jimmy is added to this group when he returns to WWE and if Tamina's recent move to SmackDown was part of a much bigger plan for her to join them.
