WWE: 7 Wrestling Sons That Surpassed Their Fathers

The wrestling business can often times be a place where families come together to watch their favorite performers with their loved ones. It's also a place where families of wrestlers have been able to perform for generations of fans. There are a number of current and former wrestlers that have wrestling in their bloodline. They have parents and grandparents that have a history in the wrestling business that goes back 50 to 60 years. It makes a lot of sense that these young men and women would grow up wanting to emulate their family members because once you get a taste of the wrestling business it may never leave you. This is about WWE performers only with a focus on the WrestleMania era, so older second generation wrestlers like Terry Funk and Nick Bockwinkel won't be included even though they obviously had legendary careers too. Perhaps one day guys like Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas might appear on a list like this because they are sons of former WWE performer Mike Rotunda aka Irwin R. Schyster and their grandfather Blackjack Mulligan is a WWE Hall of Famer. It's still too early in their careers to place them on a list like this, but Wyatt's already on a path where it looks like he might surpass his family members too. Here's a look at some of the best wrestlers ever that come from a wrestling family that surpassed what their family members did before them.
