May 8, 20178 yr Author comment_5799692 I think Super Porky and Maximo Sexy, but it might be Ric and Charlotte.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799694 Since it's only one child, I'll go with Dusty and Dustin since I genuinely was a fan of both and each achieved success at a really high level even if Dustin never was World champion.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799709 If only we had some Pepe Casas footage. Even if he was a terrible wrestler, his sons (Negro Casas, Heavy Metal, El Felino) are/were so great it almost doesn't even matter. Verne and Greg Gagne came to mind as well. Verne of course being a total legend and Greg is one of the most underrated wrestlers ever if you listen to the narrative surrounding him instead of actually watching the dude work.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799712 Eventually it will be the Flairs, for now I'm inclined to go with the Rhodes, if I knew more about Stu or Dory Sr. it might be those families.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799716 Bob Orton, Sr./Jr. Have to be up there too. Shame we don't have more of Sr. I mean, same with Warren/Nick Bockwinkel. Or Gory Guerrero/Pick a Kid. Really, though. The answer has to be Johnny/Greg Valentine, right? No one listed here feels all that close in ring from the footage we have.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799722 Jerry Lawler and Brian Christopher. It's a shame we don't have much Tommy Gilbert footage cause him and Eddie Gilbert could be up there. Also Carlos Colon and Eddie "Primo" Colon.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799728 Gran Apache & his daughters Mari & Fabi. A cool bunch. Gran Hamada & his daughter Ayako. What's better than this ?
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799736 Definitely a Dusty & Dustin guy for now. If I'd seen any Dory Sr. that would seem like a possibility. Curious to see if Charlotte can make this an argument. Certainly has the potential and trajectory.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799773 I'd go Dusty/Dustin right now. Others considered Johnny/Greg Valentine (just haven't seen enough of the old footage personally) Ric/Charlotte Flair (needs time to sort it out) Gory/Eddie Guerrero (Haven't seen a ton of Gory, but Eddie is a personal favorite) Blackjack Bulligan/Barry Windham
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799776 Do in-laws count? If so, Verne Gagne and Larry Zbyszko are worthy of consideration.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799777 I'd agree with dusty and Dustin. I mean what Dustin did when given the goldust character I still marvel at. He made it a memorable character. Also would Verne and Greg gagne be in the mix. I realise that Verne would be doing the heavy lifting there.
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799787 Ray Mendoza and Villanos II, IV and V. Mendoza looks like a beast in the match we have against Fujinami. Perro Aguayo and Perro Aguayo Jr. Fuerza Guerrera and Juventud Guerrera (at least in the mid-90s) Alfonso Dantes and Apolo and Cesar Dantes Joe Blanchard and Tully Blanchard Warren Bockwinkel and Nick Bockwinkel Gino Garibaldi and Leo Garibaldi Dory Funk Sr. and Dory Jr. and Terry Funk Dr. Wagner Sr. and Dr. Wagner Jr. and Silver King Chavo Guerrero Sr. and Chavo Guerrero Jr. Fritz Von Erich and his kids Francis St. Clair Gregory and Tony and Roy St. Clair Roy "Bull" Davis and Skull Murphy (UK version) Jim Hussey and Mark Rocco Billy Riley and Ernie Riley
May 8, 20178 yr comment_5799788 Perro Aguayo and Perro Aguayo Jr. That's it. I don't think anyone else comes close for me. Since we're naming names-Shinya & Daichi Hashimoto and Rikidozan & Mitsuo Momota are also good shouts.
May 9, 20178 yr comment_5799803 Chavo Guerrero Sr. and Jr. Miguel Perez Sr. and Jr. Carlos Colon and sons
May 9, 20178 yr comment_5799808 Dory Funk Sr. gives me the impression of Terry and Dory Jr.'s love child, and I mean that in the nicest way. Dory's look and Terry's personality. I suspect he could go in the ring, but we've only got eight minutes of footage to back that up. Best one not yet mentioned: Rocky and Dwayne Johnson. The younger Rock is an all time great. His dad is a fringe Hall of Fame candidate in his own right. Edit: One more, Tony and Matt Borne. Matt was very good. I've never heard anyone talk of him in higher esteem than Tony.
