Author’s take
It’s great to see WWE Superstars take in the joys of parenthood. Curt Hawkins is an incredibly talented wrestler and I have no doubt in my mind that he will be a great father as well. The lovely poem he wrote for his daughter just melted my heart!
Here’s wishing Hawkins all the best in his parental duties and may he do well in “facing the facts” that come with raising a kid!
