Wrestling is just like all the other industries, and If you have a family member in it, then it will be easier for you to get in the industry. There are some of the legendary wrestling families that gave us some of the top wrestlers in the WWE industry.

Among wrestling families, there is the Anoaʻi family which gave WWE many great wrestlers. If any member from the Anoaʻi family asks for a chance for their children to compete in WWE, Vince McMahon can't say no.

Superstars like AJ Styles and Finn Balor spent a long year dominating in indie wrestling promotions before they joined WWE. If their family had a history with WWE, then they would have joined the company much sooner. Now it is evident that it will be easier for their children to get in the WWE.
