Raw General Manager Kurt Angle has shown a special affinity for Ronda Rousey since the MMA star arrived in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), and now the reason is clear — he has been revealed to be her father.

A routine DNA test as part of WWE’s Wellness Policy determined that Rousey is the biological half-sibling of Jason Jordan, and that both were sired by Angle during a series of one-night-stands during his collegiate wrestling days.

“Oh, it’s true,” Angle replied when a teary-eyed Rousey asked him if he was indeed her father. For emphasis, Angle clarified that the DNA result is “damn true.”

Father and daughter will join forces as a tag team this April to square off against Hunter Hearst Helmsley and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley (who, according to their own DNA test, are actually fourth cousins, related through their shared Anoa’i lineage).

Although Rousey has vast experience in the theatrical carnival of mixed martial arts, time will tell how she can fare in the real sport of pro wrestling.
