12 Times WWE Tried To Convince You Wrestlers Were Related

7. Ryan And Ken Shamrock

January 11, 1999 saw the WWE debut of Ryan Shamrock, the younger sister of the world's most dangerous man, Ken. She immediately became the focus of Val Venis' attention with the one-time European Champion then becoming the focus of Ken's - the 1998 King of the Ring winner understandably wanting to keep his little sister away from the advances of a porn star. Ken's treatment of Val didn't stop Mr Ass getting involved however, with the D-Generation X member flirtatiously mooing Ms. Shamrock... Ryan became a bonafide character on WWE television after it was revealed by Val that the pair had indeed starred in a porno called Shaving Ryan's Privates, which in turn led to a battle for her hand between Venis and Gunn - even Goldust a kiss in this most confusing of love quadrilaterals. She then became involved with the Ministry of Darkness, who threatened to sacrifice her in order to send a message to the McMahons. The following week she was found in the Boiler Room by Mankind before Ken - who had been tipped off that his sister was in the boiler room - found himself on the wrong end of a beatdown by Undertaker's charges. That chain of events will always be remembered as the time Taker called Ms. Shamrock "a little slut..." Really. She bounced around the roster for another few months before eventually joining WCW. Shamrock said that she had refused to sign a five-year deal which prompted her release, while others believe that Chyna got her fired. Either way, Ryan, played by Alicia Webb and Ken were not related - they were even dating while they were on television together. Vince McMahon is even rumoured to have asked to pair to take part in an incest angle that would have seen their relationship brought into storyline...
