The life of a WWE Superstar is far from easy.

Not only do you have to deal with bumps in the ring as well as the constant risk of injury, but you also have to face a life on the road, away from your family.

With Superstars often having to face weeks, or even months on end away from home, it's amazing that any of them are able to start a family with someone not from the industry.

Despite this, some Superstars have not only been able to start a family but have even had their children start a family of their own.

These WWE Superstars showed that though they are tough in the ring, they can be gentle outside the squared circle.

Here are five WWE Superstars you (probably) didn't know were actually grandparents.


#5: Rikishi

As part of the legendary Anoa'i wrestling family, there's plenty of members of Rikishi's family that fans have seen compete in the ring.

Even today, some of Rikishi's children compete every week on WWE programming as Jimmy and Jey Uso.

A former Intercontinental Champion, Rikishi took his spot in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015, and though fans got a look into his life, they may not have known he was a grandfather.

Jimmy Uso has two children of his own - Jayla and Jaiden, and with Rikishi's in-ring career behind him, the former champion can work towards spending some time with his grandkids, teaching them about wrestling in the next few years.

With so many years in the world of professional wrestling, Rikishi's knowledge could be a great asset to any of his grandkids who could one day want to enter the profession.
