Luke Perry's Son Withdraws From Upcoming Wrestling Show

Luke Perry's son will not be partaking in a wrestling match following the Riverdale star's death.

Bar Wrestling announced on Twitter that Jack Perry, who goes by the moniker Jungle Boy, "will no longer be wrestling at our March 13th show." 

The organization added, "Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family at this time."

Luke Perry died on Monday due to complications from a stroke that he had on Feb. 27. E! News learned that the 52-year-old was surrounded by his kids Jack and Sophie as well as his fiancée Wendy Madison Bauer, ex-wife Minnie Sharp, mother Ann Bennett, step-father Steve Bennett, brother Tom Perry, sister Amy Coder and other loved ones at the time of his death.

The actor's rep told E! News in a statement on Monday, "The family appreciates the outpouring of support and prayers that have been extended to Luke from around the world, and respectfully request privacy in this time of great mourning."

His Riverdale and Beverly Hills, 90210 co-stars as well as fellow celebrities took to Twitter on Monday to praise and honor the actor.

Even those who met him briefly shared anecdotes about the actor and his influence on them. Tom Hanks son Colin Hanks, for instance, wrote a story on Instagram that explained a time they were on a plane together and Luke quieted down kids who had been screaming for hours on end.

"Guy seemed like a true gent. Gone way too damn soon," Hanks wrote.

CW, the network that airs Riverdale, said in a statement on Monday, "We are deeply saddened to learn today about the passing of Luke Perry. A beloved member of the Riverdale, Warner Bros. and CW family, Luke was everything you would hope he would be: an incredibly caring, consummate professional with a giant heart, and a true friend to all. A father figure and mentor to the show's young cast, Luke was incredibly generous, and he infused the set with love and kindness. Our thoughts are with Luke's family during this most difficult time."

Lili Reinhart, who plays Betty Cooper on the show, wrote on Twitter, "I'm finding it hard to grasp that he will no longer be around to give long hugs and share his wisdom and kindness with all of us. I'm thinking of his family. His children. I pray for them to heal and find peace in this devastating loss."
