Who is Luke Perry’s son?
Not only that — but before Luke Perry passed away, he had the chance to see his son make a dream a reality. Jungle Boy signed an official contract with the new AEW wrestling and even got his own official t-shirt fans could buy.
The news broke last month that Cody Rhodes and the Young Bucks signed Jungle Boy to an AEW contract.
They even posted a fun photo on Twitter about the signing, and today sent their condolences about the loss of the young man’s father.
