Dwayne Johnson/Heartwarming
- While Johnson is no stranger to being awesome or hilarious (or hilariously awesome), his 2011 return to the WWE included a few minutes where he broke Kayfabe in order to tug on the heartstrings of everyone watching.
The Rock: I need to take this moment, and I need to tell you something *removes sunglasses* as Dwayne.
The Rock: Simply put, ladies and gentlemen, The Rock is back! |
- Before all that was another touching moment:
"Finally, The Rock HAS COME BACK...home." |
- His Team Bring It! Speech. He calls out his fans, the shyer, younger ones in particular, to take a level in badass:
The Rock: Ah, Chicago! The Rock participated in his first Wrestlemania here in this very building! You know, The Rock never told anyone about this, but the Rock, was nervous. But something happened that night- The Rock decided to Bring It! And that night, was the unofficial birth, of Team Bring It! Team Bring It isn't just some slogan, it's a way of life! The Rock brings it, The Rock's fans bring it! When you're on Team Bring It, you knock down doors! YOU KICK DOWN WALLS! And ANYBODY, who tells you can't...you take your fears, your insecurities, your worries, roll 'em all up into a ball, TURN THOSE SONS OF BITCHES SIDEWAYS, AND STICK 'EM STRAIGHT UP THEIR CANDY ASSES! |
- On May 2nd, 2011, The Rock celebrated his birthday on Raw. It was the usual fun night with The Rock as your host. Nothing unusual happened; the usual owning of Michael Cole, a brief face-off with John Cena, and The Rock getting frisky with the Divas. Then, at the end of the show as The Rock was thanking all of the fans for participating (by now they all had birthday hats on), Vince McMahon shows up, surprising pretty much everyone. He offered The Rock this as a gift. It's pretty much a CMOH for both guys.
Vince: ... but most importantly, Rock, I'd like to thank you for being The Rock. So on behalf of the WWE organization, we've put together a little birthday present for you. And I'll lead to it by simply saying, of all the thank yous, a heartfelt, Rock, thank you for... for coming home. |
- If the video doesn't do it for you, Ata Johnson, The Rock's mother, tearing up and clapping vigorously for her son should.
