The Rock Breaks Down Remembering Hulk Hogan — Heartbreaking Tribute Stuns Millions 💔🏆
In an emotional moment that shook the wrestling world to its core, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson delivered a powerful, tear-filled tribute to Hulk Hogan — the man he called a mentor, a brother, and a titan of the ring. The heartfelt message, shared publicly just hours after Hogan’s funeral, has already stunned millions around the world.
For a man known for his charisma, confidence, and larger-than-life presence, The Rock showed a side few have seen — raw, vulnerable, and broken by loss.
🕊️ “You Paved the Road I Walked On”
In a video tribute posted on social media, The Rock fought back tears as he spoke directly to the camera, wearing a black T-shirt, his eyes filled with emotion.
“Hulk… brother… you paved the road I walked on. You made this business global. You made me believe I could be more than just a wrestler. You made millions believe they could be heroes.”
As his voice cracked, he paused, wiping away a tear before continuing.
“To the world, you were immortal. But to me? You were family. A real one.”
📼 He Recalled Their First Meeting
The Rock shared memories of being a young man backstage, watching Hogan from behind the curtain — long before he became a superstar himself.
“I was just a rookie in the locker room. And Hulk took the time to shake my hand. He didn’t have to. But he looked me in the eye and said, ‘You’re gonna be big, brother. You’ve got it.’ That moment changed my life.”
He reflected on the iconic WrestleMania match they shared — Hogan vs. Rock — calling it one of the greatest honors of his career.
“It wasn’t just a match. It was history. And I got to share the ring with my hero.”
💔 “I Wish I Had One More Day With You”
Toward the end of the tribute, The Rock broke down again.
“I wish I had one more day with you. One more hug. One more laugh about the old days. You were always there when I needed strength. And I promise to carry that strength forward.”
He ended the message with Hogan’s iconic catchphrase, his voice shaking:
“Whatcha gonna do… when the love of Hulk Hogan runs wild on you?”
Millions watched in silence — and then the flood of support came pouring in.
