What is your favourite or the most bizarre you can find?

Killer Brooks working as Cousin Luke Mulligan in 1980 JCP is pretty funny

Michael Hayes being the cousin of Glen Kulka in 1999 Power Pro Wrestling. Also Mae Young being Shawn Stasiak's mother.

Well there goes a Brainbuster game I was working on. Shit. 😐

Never knew about Killer Tim Brooks doing a fake Mulligan gimmick, but I was aware of him doing "Buster Brody," Bruiser Brody's "brother" helping him in battles against Abdullah The Butcher circa 1986 in Montreal.

Didn't know about either of those but I am positive I don't want to see any Killer Tim Brooks in 1986 after seeing him in 1983 Georiga

 

Dutch Mantel worked as Dutch Bass, the kayfabe brother of Ron Bass in the Gulf Coast territory during the mid 70s. Possibly Central States also, I know they teamed there but not sure if it was as brothers.

As discussed on some show I did at some point in the past couple of months (God knows which one), I'm immensely entertained at the idea of where Waldo Von Erich fits in to that family.

I'm a fan of people working the replaceable twin gimmick when any idiot should be able to tell otherwise. Like the Bashams.

Isn't he Lance's dad?

Just the idea that Kerry and co have an evil Nazi uncle cracks me up.

One of my favorites is Paul and Jos Leduc because while they weren't brothers, the impression I got is that the worked nature of their relationship was a really well kept secret relative to many others.

My absolute favourite the Dudley Boyz, bar none! You could add anyone to that family and it worked. From Dances with Dudley to Big Dick Dudley they all had their charm.

 

I love to picture Dudleyville where the whole town is related in some way or the other. D-Von running the church, Big Dick running the junkyard, etc...

 

The real question is, what does Dudley Girlz look like?

Stacy Kiebler, I assume.

I'm moving to Dudleyville!

Honky Tonk Man worked as Dennis Condrey's cousin Danny in WWC in 1981

I was floored when I saw that Fritz von Erich had a brother in Quebec called Karl von Erich in 1953. This was for promoter Sylvano Samson and it likely was the first place where Adkisson used the von Erich gimmick

Actually wasn't it Fritz's gimmick as well until he moved to the Dallaa area and people knew who he was from his SMU days.

There was a whole Bass clan. Ron also teamed with Don Bass, a regular in Memphis in teams like the Assassins, Interns, Fire & Flame. They also had Ma Bass, their mom (obviously). I think she had a pipe and shot gun

I believe it was revealed that Humongous (Sid Vicious) in Continental was Shane Douglas' cousin.

 

Ron and Jimmy Garvin billed as brothers when Ron is actually his stepdad

Didn't Shane Douglas start his career as "Troy Orndorff"? I think they billed him as Paul's nephew or something.

 

I've always wanted to see the alternate reality where Ric Flair sticks with "Ricky Rhodes" and never becomes the Nature Boy.

I found it bizarre that Edge and Christian wound up on a "shocking wrestling truths" article.

 

The ironic thing though is that Copeland and Reso are probably as close to being called IRL brothers as you can get without being blood relatives.

He also was briefly kayfabed as a cousin of the Anderson "family" to justify Ole and Arn (neither actually related to Gene Anderson) helping him.

In an amusing story, when they brought the future Zach Ryder & Curt Hawkins as the fake relative team of The Major Brothers, apparently Vince didn't know for a long time that they weren't actually brothers. Apparently when Vince finally found out he said they needed to come up with a new gimmick for them because you couldn't fool people like that anymore.
