When Luke Hawx steps into the ring on Saturday at the NWA’s Hard Times show, it will mark a homecoming for the seasoned pro wrestler.
Hawx and his son PJ—known together as Hawx Aerie—will team up to challenge La Rebelión for the NWA tag team titles at Hard Times. The show’s venue—Frederick J. Sigur Civic Center in Chalmette, La.—sits only a few miles from where Hawx grew up in nearby New Orleans. Yet that is not why this show represents a return home. For Hawx, he is back home each time he steps back into the ring.
