Family Trees in Wrestling is the next series I’d like to embark on and one that has fascinated me for a while. I’ll have to do some research on these families, especially the Anoa’i family, but with the state of the world right now, what else is there to do!

I’ll start this series with some “Americans.” Namely, the American Dream and the American Nightmare, the Rhodes family. Starting in Austin, TX, Virgil Riley Runnels, Jr., better known as Dusty Rhodes became a legend in professional wrestling. This is his family tree.
