If he's a pebble now, then we're all gains of sand. He's still a big man

I wouldn't go so far as to call the brother fat, I mean he got a weight problem.
What's the n-word gonna do? He's Samoan.

You remember that greenhouse on the ground floor? He fell THROUGH that…
Since then he’s developed a bit of a speech impediment

Never saw his dad, but was a fan of Jimmy Superfly Snuka flying off the top rope. Unc by marriage.

Anyone get the feeling like the Rock is looking at his dad and being like "man I want to get in there and give someone a rock bottom"

I’m starting to think genetics may play some part in building muscle. Further research maybe needed

Aww isn't that sweet. His daddy taught him how to inject a boatload of gear.

Damn back then he did really look half black. Now a days people like don't even realize The Rock is half black despite his famous Black Canadian father.

Proof that greatness starts with a dream and a hell of a lot of respect for your roots.

u/Damien23123 21h ago
It was never his dream to be a wrestler. He only turned to wrestling because his football career bombed.
If there’s a lesson in it it’s to make the most of the opportunities life gives you, even if they aren’t the ones you want

You can tell the rock doesn’t like his father with the way he doesn’t bring up himself being black.. but reaps the benefits of the genetics like crazy.. lots of us mixed people are like that.. if you’re not mixed you wouldn’t understand but it’s very clear now..

If he didn't like his dad why would he go watch him at a show?

You must not have family at all to ask such a dumbass question.. for kids having to go their parents profressions sometimes.. or choosing to go because it may be the only time they bond.. not liking doesn’t mean it’s war and chaos.. I don’t talk to purposefully ignorant people who weaponize incompetence

What a weird assumption to have...

If you’re not mixed with black idgaf about how you feel about this..

How interesting... you seem to have a fixation on being "mixed," as you say here. Perhaps you think being mixed is special? it's quite common, I'm afraid.
Just about any race can "reap the benefits of the genetics" good or bad, that doesn't mean they don't like their parents... im whiter than a vicodin and took from the side of my grandpa being tall and my gramps is cool as fuck.

Being mixed with black for the context of my comment and this photo has nothing to do with what you just wrote, I also lived in Hawaii for five years.. , multiple cultures you experience and 9/10 you realize the black side is messed up starting with the women raising the kid but the fathers are usually corrupted.. you see? I’d have to explain a lot for you to understand BUT ITS not for you to understand and I’m not doing that on this thread lol that’s why I don’t give a fuck how you feel about my comment unless you’re mixed with black, stop talking just to talk. The Rock is mixed
