The name "Filius Rex" is a bad Latin translation of "Sons of the King". These young princes are fighting, but in the most innocent of ways. Young predators learn through their play. Just as wolf pups will pounce upon each other, biting and growling as if they were angry, so too might tyrannosaurs have done. We see the evidence in bite marks on their fossil skulls.
