AEW Wrestler Announces Birth Of His First Child

Last month, former boxer-turned-wrestler Anthony Ogogo disclosed on social media that his wife, Casey Wicks, was pregnant with their first child, having been married since 2017. And now, Ogogo has announced on X that his daughter Yesenia has been born, although he revealed she was born five weeks early. However, based on the wording of his tweet, it appears that the mother and baby are doing well, given the circumstances.

“On Friday, we welcomed our beautiful baby girl, Yesenia, into the world. Arriving 5 weeks early, weighing just 4lbs, she gave us a huge scare. But like her dad, she’s a fighter & like her mum, she’s an absolute beaut. Never been prouder, more grateful & as humbled as I am now.”

35-year-old Ogogo signed with AEW back in 2019 and looked set for big things, given his Olympic pedigree and charisma. Yet, while his wrestling career has yet to really take off, it was previously reported that he signed a contract extension in late 2022 or early 2023, which will keep him with the company until 2025. Therefore, he still has an opportunity to prove himself as a pro wrestler, having joined Shane Taylor Promotions in April.
