10 Most Infamous Fake Wrestling Relatives

10. Ken & Ryan Shamrock

Though Ken Shamrock was more used to fighting some of the best fighters in the world inside a UFC octagon, the former Intercontinental Champion spent the latter months of his WWE career fending off suitors for his kayfabe sister (and real-life girlfriend), Ryan.

Debuting in 1999, Ryan immediately become an object of Val Venis' desires, and it was revealed that they'd starred in a pornographic film together. Ken stood up for his sister at St. Valentine's Day Massacre, but lost to Venis when Ryan slapped him across the face. Billy Gunn and Goldust would try to move in on Ryan over the coming weeks, before the Ministry of Darkness "sacrificed" her in April, resulting in a month-long hiatus.

The younger Shamrock returned to join Pretty Mean Sisters with Terri and Jacqueline, but was released two months later. Bizarrely, she and Ken almost became the subjects of one of Vince McMahons oft-pitched incest angles, which may have played a role in her refusal to sign a five-year contract prior to her departure. Ken also left the company later that year, but he and Ryan remained a couple until 2003.
