@@StephTerry-c2y They definitely have a case, but I think I value the in ring work more than anything else. Other than a few exceptions in some matches, Triple H is the only great in ring worker (unless I’m forgetting someone)
They also have a lot of kids to come up behind them. OTC alone has 5 I think that Jacob has 6. Then there are Jimmy and Jey's kids and Solo's that bloodline is never ending. Yes wresteling has more than one royal family but no there is as big or as deep.
@@timtalks6080 I value the family that put it on the map and made it a prime time industry. I get what you’re say you’re thinking ring but I feel McMahons are the most important family in wrestling history hands down. From senior to junior to even the son in law.
he did nothing in the wrestling world, only gets put on this list because he died young, he would be bottom 5 with out tha, didn’t get in any major promotions or make any impact.
Solo above Jacob and as high as he is might get you guys heat but I honestly agree with it. In the past 2 years he’s Main evented 9 PLEs ( including Summerslam), Wrestled Cena, Reigns and Cody while also having one of the best call ups ever. It’s even crazier that he’s done all this with only 7 years of experience. He’s not a nepotism hire either, that’s such a lazy narrative, Solo was literally broke for years before Wwe and at times would starve to feed his kids yet he didn’t use his dad for a job. you don’t have to like him but the man’s accomplished insane feats for a early 30s wrestler with less than a decade in the game.
I agree. We haven’t seen enough of Jacob’s work to be able to put him too high on this list yet. Perhaps in 2 years Jacob will be in the top 10, but we, the fans, need to see more of his talent first.
Solo is playing a vital role in WWE ATM. He's literally one of the main players in one of wrestling's biggest storylines ever. I think his importance is to be noted.
@@damhnaitcockburn2970 It shouldn't be 2 years. But the issue is that most people don't seem to get that Jacob has already been in the business for 12 years. Nothing Solo has done even compares to the stuff that Jacob was doing in MLW. And that's not a knock against Solo, but just showing how good Fatu is. Fatu became noticed worldwide while working with a company that essentially didn't have a major tv deal. Let that sink in. That's like a character from a direct to tv movie getting more attention than Terrance Howard in Iron Man. In order to get that kind of attention you'd have to be insanely good at marketing. And in the past few years that's only happened a handful of times. Danhausen and Orange Cassidy are examples of that. Hell, Matt Cardona is another example though he had fanfare dating back to when he was working WWE. Jacob Fatu for the most part is the reason people even know MLW exists (outside of MJF once working there). I don't think he should be number 1. But number 10? That's very reasonable. I certainly wouldn't put Nia or Naomi above him in terms of raw talent. I would even put him at number 13 or 14 considering the number of raw talent in that family.
We all know that Bocha Loa is the actual Tribal Cheif of Bloodline 2.0 but he is a bit shy that's why he has made Solo the spokesperson of the Faction.
Yokos story is a tragic one. The first of his clan to make it to the top. He was special in his prime. I remember as a kid thinking he was near unstoppable. And then Lex slammed him and he seemed a bit more human, but still nearly unstoppable. He was cool. May he rest well. Glad he got top 3.
He was legitimately an awful wrestler. He was pushed because he was big. That was it. Put him in literally any other time period and he never makes it to TV.
Bret Hart would disagree. He speaks highly of Yokozuna. He was fast for his size and could do things like a standing drop kick. Everyone that has ever worked with Yokozuna have spoken very highly of his in ring ability.
Naomi feels like the Big Show or Kane type. A dependable worker who can be deployed in various ways. Often in the title picture (especially when numbers are needed), but rarely holding the big prize.
Not sure why “Fred Williams” made me laugh but when you said it, I chuckled quite a bit. Anyway awesome wrestling family! Thanks for the research and info!
I'm proud of Roman for how he turned the tides on his career, how it was really about to be a bust but made it all-time great. No doubt about it he's the man of (whatever you wanna call the post-PG Era) ...but come on man, it's even obvious now in 2024 that The Rock is THE one out of this family.
@@emilyannbeshara2168 The modern era is too vague. Everything since the mid to late 80s has technically been the modern era, just like in the NBA. I'd call this the Endeavor Era or the New Regime Era. It's the first time in this company's history that it isn't being ran by a McMahon. You kinda have to mark that as the beginning of a whole new chapter, if it's not a whole new book altogether.
Haku was a midcarder and tag team wrestler his entire career. Nowhere near number 1, especially with the Rock, Roman Reigns and Yokozuna on the same list
First 3rd Gen Wrestler in the WWF was Jeff Jarrett, btw. Both his father (Jerry Jarrett) and grandfather (Eddie Marlin) were Wrestlers. Haven't really done anything with the WWF, though. That's why it fell under the table, I guess. Though they did call him a 2nd Gen Wrestler, for some reason.
So if you recognize all these "blood brothers" or Haku as the Anoa'i family members then why Hulk Hogan isn't on the list? I'm sure he called many of these guys his "brothers"

The Anoa'i family have long been some of my favourite wrestlers of all time, ever since I first saw Yokozuna. I've seen some matches from Thamiko Fatu and he definitely shows some promise so I'm looking forward to seeing what's in store for him
Yeah, but when you consider that he became one of the most popular actors, and that he is more famous than everyone else in the family combined it makes sense. I think Haku should have been #1 for the memes, but The Rock is a good choice.
So, Rocky consideres Haku an Uncle and that's reason enough to include him and his sons here?! I wonder you didn't manage to get Barbarian in there too.
"Blood bother pacts" don't count as blood, like at all. If there is a marriage between the families then it does count, for their kids especially. But just saying they're a family and bloodline because they made a pack that doesn't count whatsoever.
Just heads up Nat & Tamina won the Tag Titles on an Episode of SmackDown after WM. I remember watching this & wondering why they didn't just let them win at Mania. Tamina was actually getting a decent reaction.

Roman was a big fish in a small pond….While the rock was the top guy during the most stacked roster during the hottest period in wrestling history.
