Jungle Boy is one of the brightest stars in AEW but the pro wrestler also has a famous father. 

If you’ve been tuning into AEW for any amount of time, there’s a good chance that you’ve seen Jungle Boy. He’s one of the most active wrestlers on the roster, the first to wrestler 100 matches for the promotion, and is wildly entertaining.

As one half of the Jurassic Express tag team with the Luchasaurus, Jungle Boy is a star and, at just 24 years old, the future is limitless for him.

But you also might’ve heard that the young star has famous genes coming from his dad’s side of the family. And that leaves many wrestling fans wondering just who the 24-year-old’s father is.

Jungle Boy, whose real name is Jack Perry, is the son of acclaimed actor Luke Perry.

Luke Perry, unfortunately, passed away after suffering an ischemic stroke in March 2019.

During his acting career, though, Luke’s most notable role was as one of the stars of the original Beverly Hills, 90210. He also enjoyed a career renaissance leading up to his death as a series regular on Riverdale. His other acting credits are numerous.

Jungle Boy certainly has fame in his DNA but he is also clearly forging his own path in AEW.
