Some fans are only just realising who Cody Rhodes' brother is after his undisputed WWE universal championship win at WrestleMania 40.
The back-to-back Royal Rumble winner knocked off Roman Reigns in the main event at Lincoln Financial Field, ending the Tribal Chief's historic 1316 day title reign.
Rhodes finally finished his story at the biggest WrestleMania of all time and now leads WWE into a new era as talisman and face of the company.
He won the title his late father, the American Dream 'Dusty Rhodes' was never able to claim despite being a Hall of Famer and all-time great.

But Rhodes' fellow wrestling brother Dustin, who previously wrestled as Goldust and was a star of the 'Attitude Era' in the late 1990's and early 2000's, was in attendance in Philadelphia.
The pair are half siblings and share the same legendary father, with an age gap of 16 years.
They teamed together in WWE and won the tag team titles on two occasions - the latter coming when Cody was performing as the 'Stardust' character.

The 23-time champion left WWE in 2018 following various stints and signed with All Elite Wrestling, wrestling his founder and EVP brother at the All or Nothing event in 2019 before rekindling their relationship.
But while die-hard wrestling fans are aware of the connections, it seems as though many casuals are only just learning that the two are brothers.
One wrote: "I know I’m late cause I don’t watch wrestling like that anymore but I had nooooo idea that Goldust & Cody Rhodes were brothers. Interesting lol."
A second said: "How the hell did I not know Goldust was Cody Rhodes’ brother?!"

A third fan added: "I haven’t watched WWE in years but i just found out that one of my favourite wrestlers, Stardust, is Cody Rhodes and Goldust is his brother. What the f***.
A fourth weighed in: "Me just learning Cody Rhodes' brother was gold dust is crazy ngl."
Following Rhodes title triumph, his older brother is vying to become AEW world champion this week as he challenges Samoa Joe in a non-title Eliminator Match.
