Josh Alexander didn’t just win the IMPACT Wrestling World Championship at Rebellion – he also stole all our hearts.
The Walking Weapon was on a mission to reclaim the title Moose stole from him in front of his family at Bound For Glory, and he had his wife Jade Chung at ringside as well as a very special cheerleader.
As Josh came out for his main event match, he was joined by his adorable son Jett – who will celebrate his fourth birthday soon – and his mini-me was dressed in his own version of his dad’s wrestling gear.
The little lad played up to the crowd brilliantly in his singlet, head protector and mouthpiece, posing and keeping in character with his dad’s signature scowl.
The wrestler then carried his boy to Jade in the crowd, and got back in the ring for his title match.
It was a magical night for Alexander, who went onto defeat Moose to win back the IMPACT World Championship, and he celebrated with his wife and son in the middle of the ring.
Before Bound For Glory last year, Josh admitted his sons are his ‘biggest fans’, and he gets a special feeling when they’re able to share in his big moments.
‘I’m not just wrestling for myself anymore. My three year old and six year old boys are my biggest fans on planet earth. Seeing the enjoyment they get out of me bringing a title home or winning something, that makes me enjoy it a lot more,’ he exclusively told Metro.co.uk at the time.
‘I thought my six year old had no interest [in wrestling] and now he’s started to get into it. My three year old has been slapping his leg and kicking me in the face since he was a year and a half.’
