AEW’s Austin Gunn has been announced as a member of the cast for the new E! series,Relatively Famous: Ranch Rules. Gunn is the son of Hall of Famer Billy Gunn and the brother of fellow AEW star Colten Gunn. Austin will be joined by Hannah Giraldo (daughter of Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo), Taylor Hasselhoff (daughter of David Hasselhoff), Jasmin Lawrence (daughter of Martin Lawrence), Myles O’Neal (son of Shaquille O’Neal), Redmond Parker (son of Ray Parker Jr.), Harry James Thornton (son of Billy Bob Thornton), and Ebie (daughter of Eazy-E).
The eight celebrity children will leave their lavish lifestyles behind to work on a ranch in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. There, they will be tasked to reopen the ranch following the shutdown it experienceddue to the COVID-19 pandemic. To do so, they will be forced to complete gruesome labor and messy tasks in order to prove they are more than their celebrity name lets on. Along the way, the eight celebrity offspring will forge bonds with one another that few others in the world could replicate. Naturally, issues amongst the eight stars will arise and relationships may begin to take form.
On AEW programsDark: Elevation, Dark, Dynamite,andRampage, Austin may be found along with his brother and their famous father. The trio goes by the name of “The Gunn Club,” a play on the name Billy has made famous. In 2019, Billy was inducted into theWWE Hall of Fameas a member of D-Generation X. It was also the year that he first appeared in AEW. Billy has held plenty of accolades over his career including his impressive feat as an 11-time tag team champion in WWE. Colten and Billy recently suffered their first tag team loss at the hands of Darby Allin and Sting on last week’sDynamiteshow, ending a 35-win streak for Colten.
The E! reality show may not star Austin’s brother and father directly, but the lifestyle he has had because of his father’s accomplishments will surely be a massive part of his story on the show. E! has previously served as the home for other pro-wrestling reality shows includingTotal DivasandTotal Bellas.
