This week for the These Dads Are Doing It Right series I am highlighting some great dads in wrestling. These guys are fantastic dads and are leading by example. Plus these dads give a lot of time in different communities. In addition, if there are any other dads that you think we should check out leave their name and info in the comment section below.
Great Dads In Wrestling
Thaddeus Bullard
Thaddeus considers being a father his greatest accolade. In 2015, he was named the Celebrity Father of the Year, but like all parents, he realizes he is far from perfect. Thaddeus first became a father 19 years ago with the birth of his first son, and his second followed two years later. Having grown up fatherless, he learned on the fly how to raise two babies into thriving young men and later adopted a teenage daughter. Bullard wrote a book called Wrestling with Fatherhood. The books shares his successes and failures in parenting his three children, hoping that others can learn from his experiences.
Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns is a celebrated W.W.E. wrestler and the holder of the Universal Champion title in the world of wrestling. Born on May 25, 1985, in Pensacola, Florida, he is half-Samoan and half-Italian. Reigns played football in high school and was named the “Defensive Player of the Year” by the “Pensacola News Journal” in his senior year. Even all the accolades, Roman’s biggest role in life is that of being a dad. He even partners up with organizations to promote fatherhood.
Kofi Kingston
“Being a father to my children is truly the greatest joy of my life.” That is what Kofi said when he was talking about fatherhood. WWE professional wrestler Kofi Kingston admits that becoming a father carried a lot of self-doubt with it. However, as a father, he vows to try to lead by example, explaining that children recognize when you’re trying to be the best version of yourself and will try to emulate that effort. Love to see that from Kofi. Keep up the great work!
Mick Foley
Mick Foley, who is a 3-time WWE champion and 2-time New York Times #1 best-selling author has a one-man stage show called “Hardcore Legend: An Evening with Mick Foley.” In this show Foley tells his incredible stories of is time in the WWE using humor and intensity. I spoke with Mick years about about fatherhood and he takes that role very seriously. He really cares about being the best dad he can be and hopes his kids know how much he cares for them.
