“Losing a Parent Is Never Easy”: Dwayne Johnson’s ‘Beautiful’ Tribute to His Father on His Death Anniversary Make Everyone Emotional

A father-son shares a bond like no other. One well-known example of it is in the wrestling industry, where the son followed in the footsteps of his father. Unfortunately, Dwayne Johnson lost his father in 2020, but the bond remained intact. He keeps The Soulman alive in his memories and remembers him on his 3rd death anniversary. 

The relationship they shared had its own journey. In the initial days, the bond was kind of strange. However, it took a beautiful turn when The Rock made a heartfelt gesture toward his father. He bought a house for his father, Rocky Johnson, which left the tough man speechless.

Previously, DJ has mentioned many a time how strict his father has been throughout his life. Although The Great One also feels fortunate for that, as he claims, it made him a better man.

Dwayne Johnson remembered his dad on his 3rd death anniversary

It isn’t unknown to anyone that Rocky Johnson has accomplished a lot in his life. He was also a part of the first black tag team to win a WWE Championship. The legend’s death was confirmed by WWE itself. After the wrestler died, his son gave a eulogy that he had recently shared again on his Instagram. 

Along with the video, he wrote something that The People’s Champion has learned from his father. Not only did the former WWF champion teach his son to be an amazing wrestler, but to also keep the show going on, irrespective of what happens in between. 

The Rock wrote, “Woke up foggy, wobbly but you gotta find a way to force that smile and get that clarity going. Life ain’t waiting. The show must go on.”
