Okay, so I've learned a couple things that blew my mind when it comes to family ties within the WWE.

The Usos - Rikishi/Fatu's kids and cousins to the late Umaga (three minute warning).

Roman Reigns - Cousin to the Usos. All three are cousins to The Rock and Yokozuna.

This next one blew my mind, but if you listen to how these two cut promos and the voice behind 'em, you can hear the tie-in there.

Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas are actually brothers. Father is Mike Rotunda (AKA Irwin R. Schyster).

What other familial tie ins are you aware of?

Is this really true?
Every bit of it. Parents of all the samoan guys were brothers and sisters pretty much. Brey and Bo are half brothers, I think, might be full brothers. Wrestling has been about nepotism for decades. This is nothing new.

I would love to see a feud between the darkness of Bray Wyatt and the overly sarcastically positive Bo Dallas.

You've got to think I will happen eventually. I'll add that they also need Mike Rotunda as the producer for that match too.

Screw producer... make him Special Referee and make Ted DiBiasse Guest Bell Ringer. :D

I believe Bray and Bo are full brothers, not half.

That would work. I bet we see that one day.

Guys, I was speaking specifically of ACTIVE wrestlers, and not necessarily the ones that are openly known (such as the Rhodes or Bella twins or dating/marriage relationships). :)

Don't limit it to the WWE, either.
