Several current families on WWE TV are actually real

Families have been part of WWE's roster for decades, some have stood out more than others and some are much more believable than others.

The Holly Family, The Wyatt Family, and even The Basham Brothers all had the WWE Universe fooled for a number of years, but for every fake family, there are several real-life relatives.

Over the years, the most personal feuds have been between real-life family members. At present, it appears that WWE is following the same sort of theme with their current roster.

There are a number of real life family members and just one family that has been created for storyline purposes:


#5. Real WWE family - Humberto Carrillo and Angel Garza

Humberto Carrillo and Angel Garza were recently unveiled as Los Lotharios on WWE SmackDown and it has been well-documented that the two stars are real life cousins.

Now more simply known as Humberto and Angel, the two men could be destined to push for the Tag Team Championships in the near future. Garza and Carrillo have faced off on WWE TV several times in the past, and were even part of a feud on RAW after Angel was promoted alongside Zelina Vega.

An interesting fact about this duo is that Angel Garza's real name is Humberto, whilst Humberto's middle name is Garza. It appears that the two stars have very close links to one another and their careers have always been closely matched.

Angel made his debut much earlier than his cousin back in 2008 and went on to sign with WWE in 2019 where he was signed to NXT. Carrillo made his debut in 2012 before finally turning heads in WWE in 2018 when he was also sent to NXT.

Carrillo was also promoted to the main roster first as part of the WWE Draft in 2019, before his cousin followed him in February 2020 when Vega needed a new business associate.

The two men have worked together on 205 Live and RAW in the past and are now looking to take over SmackDown as a tag team for the first time.

#4. Real WWE Family - The McMahons

The McMahon's may not be as active on WWE TV as they once were, but the family are still an ever-present force in the company. Vince McMahon is the chairman behind every major move or decision in WWE, whilst his daughter Stephanie is the Chief Brand Officer and her husband Triple H is seen as the godfather of NXT as well as WWE's COO.

Vince McMahon has been able to push his father's company into the multi-million dollar brand that it now is over the past few decades. The McMahon family have been seen as on-screen and off-screen stars in the company throughout this time.

Triple H and Stephanie began dating following a WWE storyline, whilst Shane McMahon and his mother Linda have also played their roles in storylines over the years.

Triple H wrestled his last WWE match at the beginning of the year when he faced Randy Orton on RAW, whilst it's been several years since Shane, Vince and Stephanie have stepped foot in the room.

#3. Fake WWE Family - Roman Reigns and The Rock

The Rock and Roman Reigns have been pushing towards a feud on WWE TV for several years.

Roman Reigns is the current Universal Champion and easily one of the biggest stars in the company. The Rock was once seen as WWE's biggest star and has returned several times throughout Reigns' career.

Whilst their upcoming feud has been rumored for several years, WWE are yet to make any match between the two men official. That being said, the whole feud is built upon the fact that Reigns and The Rock are cousins, which isn't actually true.

Whilst the two men have become close throughout their lives and outside of WWE they do see each other as their cousins, they are not actually blood relations.

Instead it appears that their ancestors are "blood brothers" and liked their family lines a long time ago. This is enough to build a deeply personal feud upon, but it has been made clear several times that The Rock and Roman Reigns are not truly related.

#2. Real WWE Family - Rey Mysterio and Dominik

Dominik Mysterio first appeared on WWE TV when he was eight years old, and it was made clear that the son of Rey Mysterio had a future in the company.

Dominik has since trained under Lance Storm and has been welcomed back to WWE as an active performer. He made history when he was able to win the Tag Team Championships with his own father.

There was some confusion surrounding Dominik in his early career since several fans believed that he was Eddie Guerrero's son following the storyline, but this isn't the case.

Dominik and Rey Mysterio are real-life father and son and the former World Champion was even able to bring his daughter Aalyah and wife Angie into the storyline earlier in the year.

Aalyah was part of her own storyline alongside Buddy Murphy for several months before she left the company and returned to school. Dominik and Rey have recently been drafted over to RAW where they have a new lease of life.

#1. Real WWE Family - Roman Reigns and The Usos (The Bloodline)

The Bloodline has dominated WWE SmackDown over the past few months with Roman Reigns being seen as The Head of the Table.

Reigns and The Usos have made it clear that they are on the same page and that they are working hard to bring in money for their family. The Usos and the Universal Champion are cousins, and related off-screen as well as on-screen. There are several famous members of their family consisting of former WWE legends and Hall of Famers.

One of WWE's newest recruits has also been rumored to be joining the family business in the near future too. Solo Sikoa recently made his debut on NXT and it's well-known that he's the younger brother of Jimmy and Jey.

Whilst Sikoa has made it clear that he "Rocks Alone," it's unlikely that WWE would waste a chance to have a real-life family at odds as part of another entertaining storyline.
