Recently, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson took to Instagram to share a heartfelt video and message about his late father, Rocky 'Soulman' Johnson. In the video, Johnson's father can be seen accepting a WWE belt for making pro-wrestling history in 1983 as part of the first-ever Black Heavyweight Tag Team champions alongside Tony Atlas.

He described his father as a trailblazer who paved the way for men of color in sports and entertainment, emphasizing the importance of reconciliation and expressing gratitude for the tough love he received.
This is not the first time Johnson has opened up about his regrets regarding his relationship with his father.

Johnson urged others to cherish the time they have with their fathers, even if the relationship is complicated, emphasizing the importance of reconciliation.
Through his candid reflections, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson serves as a reminder of the significance of familial relationships and the value of reconciliation. His message resonates with many who may be navigating complex relationships with their fathers, urging them to prioritize reconciliation and appreciation for their loved ones while they still have the chance.
