The 31-year-old, who now has a total of seven kids, posted photos from the event to her Instagram Stories, showing her son decked out in his black and red wrestling gear.
Lux was on one knee in the middle of the ring with his head down.
Kailyn confessed in the caption: “I ugly cried about this one – second match & he lost but put up a hell of a fight & my friend coached him through the whole thing. So proud of him & so thankful.”
However, her cries turned to tears of joy in the next Story, as she shared a photo of Lux clutching a medal around his neck.
The child beamed with pride as he stood on some stairs that were serving as a makeshift podium.
Beneath him was a taped sign that informed Lux took home third place at the New Year’s Brawl event.
“First tournament was so fun & he’s excited for the next one!” she gushed in the caption.

SCARY SURGERY
Kailyn has been experiencing a roller coaster of emotions lately, as she revealed her one-year-old son Rio undergoing a scary surgery, following her harrowing confession that he was born prematurely and spent eight weeks in the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit).
Late last week, the former reality star posted a photo of Rio entering the hospital.
His father, Elijah Scott, held his hands to help the toddler walk.
Elijah’s hand covered Rio’s face in the photo.
Kailyn turned to her fans for help and added a question box.
The Teen Mom 2 alum shared: “Rio is getting tubes in his ears this morning.”
She asked her fans: “What to expect after and did you do anything special when the anesthesia wore off?”
In the next slide on Instagram, Kailyn posted a video where she announced three of her children have pink eye, and Rio just had a “really bad case.”
Kailyn said: “Three of my kids are at the pediatrician this morning and Rio is at the hospital.”
TROUBLED BIRTH
Kailyn currently has three baby children: son Rio, born in November 2022; and twins born last month, all shared with her boyfriend Elijah, 25.
Alongside the three kids shared with Elijah, Kailyn is mom to Isaac, 13, shared with ex-boyfriend Jo Rivera, and Lincoln, nine, with ex-husband Javi Marroquin.
She also shares Lux, six, and Creed, three, with ex-boyfriend Chris Lopez.
Last month, Kailyn told her fans about Rio’s birth story.
The first picture she posted on social media showed Elijah sitting next to and looking down at his newborn son, who was hooked up to oxygen and lying in a hospital bed.
The next picture showed Kailyn holding her baby while he was intubated.
Kailyn was wearing a mask and seemed to be holding her son very gently.
She also shared another photo of the medical equipment in the NICU without Rio.
The final picture showed the baby surrounded by a team of doctors and nurses.
They appeared to be performing tests and giving Rio medical care shortly after he was born.
She captioned the post: “A year later we finally get to tell Rio’s birth story.”
OPENING UP
Kailyn shared her experience during her pregnancy with her fifth child during her podcast, Barely Famous.
The couple spent the episode going into detail about finding out she was pregnant, buying several pregnancy tests, their first ultrasound, and the birthing process.
Elijah talked about the first doctor visit: “We went together and we were sitting in the room and you were supposed to be either six or seven weeks because of the little app she was using to track the pregnancy.
“The ultrasound tech came in, did the ultrasound, and didn’t really say nothing she was just quiet and then you kept asking her and was like ‘Is there a heartbeat?’ and she said ‘No, I can’t find one’ and then that’s when you cried all weekend.”
In the following weeks, they went back for a second ultrasound appointment when they confirmed the doctors found a heartbeat and she was indeed pregnant.
Kailyn labeled the birth as “traumatizing” and said they barely got to see him when he came out – clarifying she only got to hold him for “maybe three seconds.”
The star said there were also roughly six nurses who had “hands” on Rio as he was immediately taken to the NICU.
In tears, Kailyn said: “I was so upset. When I tell you that I was beside myself… it was so scary.”
Elijah said he “didn’t have a chance to cry and process” his son being born because she was so upset.
