ROCK SORPRENDE A TIO EX LUCHADOR KING TONGA CON ESTE REGALITO DE NAVIDAD

El actor y luchador Dawyne “The Rock” Johnson publicó en Instagram el regalo especial que le hizo a su tío, King Tonga, el pasado 25 de diciembre  cuando le trajo un nuevo ‘truck’.

El actor relató junto a la imagen del regalo cómo su tío lo ayudó en su primera lucha para la WWE y el apoyo que le dio en ese entonces.  Luego contó como los sorprendió con el regalo.

“… caminamos afuera y le dije: “Tío, ¿cómo te gusta mi camión?” Él dijo: “Whoooaaa sobrino es hermoso … ¡Me encanta!” Le dije: “Bueno es tuyo.” Él se quedó sin habla. A través de las lágrimas (varoniles por supuesto;) nos dimos un abrazo de monstruo porque yo nunca voy a olvidar lo que hizo por mí cuando yo no tenía nada,” dijo.

A continuación la imagen y el mensaje entero:

Merry Christmas Uncle Tonga – enjoy your new truck! Cool Christmas story to share with y’all… Known my “Uncle Tonga” since I was 5yrs old. My grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia helped train him to become a professional wrestler in the 70′s. Throughout Tonga’s illustrious wrestling career he changed his name to “King Haku” and became one the WWE’s most sought after “bad guys” and still known to this day for being one of the toughest and legit most vicious man in wrestling history.

Years later and I get a call from WWE saying “Vince McMahon wants to see you wrestle immediately.He’s flying you to RAW tomorrow and you’ll have a tryout match.” I thought holy shit that’s awesome, buuuut there’s a few problems: For me, I wasn’t just having “a tryout match”, because I had never actually HAD a real match in my life. Ever. WWE thought that I already had multiple matches under my belt, but little did they know. What they also didn’t know was that I was broke as hell and didn’t actually own wrestling gear – no boots, knee pads or most importantly.. wrestling trunks. I went to Sports Authority and bought some bright ass white volleyball knee pads, called my Uncle and asked if he had ANY trunks I could use for my tryout.

He said all I have is a pair of shiny purple trunks (purple was his signature color), I told him I don’t care if the trunks are all the colors of Skittles, I’ll happily wear them. When I picked the trunks up from him I’ll never forget the monster hug he gave me, look me in the eyes and said, “I’m so proud of you. Go get ‘em nephew!” Here’s the picture of me wrestling my FIRST MATCH EVER in Corpus Christi, TX in front of 15,000 people – proudly in my lucky purple trunks. And the rest… was history.

My Uncle Tonga is a family man, humble man and champion. Most importantly one of the greatest human beings I know. So we walk outside and I said “Uncle how do you like my truck?” He said, “Whoooaaa nephew it’s beautiful… I love it!” I said “Good ’cause it’s yours.” He was speechless. Thru tears (manly of course;) we monster hugged ’cause I’ll never forget what he did for me when I had nothing. Merry Christmas Uncle and ofa atu. #LuckyPurpleTrunks
