There aren’t that many guys that are third generation superstars, but two of the biggest are The Rock and Randy Orton. Those are the first two names that come to mind. Among the women, there’s really only one name: Natalya.

Natalya is a third generation wrestler. Her grandfather Stu Hart was a very famous wrestler in the Calgary area and elsewhere that also had a lot of success as a promoter as well as trainer. Her father Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart married one of Stu’s daughters, Ellie. Natalya always had a desire to get into wrestling because she was inspired by her grandfather, her father and her uncle Bret.

There was almost another third generation diva in WWE when Shaul Guerrero worked for the company and she had some matches in FCW & NXT although she didn’t make it to the main roster before being released. At this point, Natalya is the only third generation female wrestler in WWE history.
