That’s an awesome moment. There are superstars from the wrestling world and then there is the Rock, who has gone from one of the biggest names in the history of professional wrestling to the biggest star in Hollywood. That is not something you see very often and it is great to see Rock pop back into the wrestling world every now and then. What makes it even better is when he gives back, which he did for someone in particular.

As great as the Rock is, it took a lot to get him where he is today. That includes the help of a lot of people you might not hear of a lot of the time. Several of these people might never have been the biggest names, but they are the kind of people who can offer quite a bit of help behind the scenes. That is often some of the most important things you can get in wrestling, and now the Rock is giving back to someone who helped him.

Well that’s great. Check out what the Rock did for one of his friends:

The Rock has posted a video to his Instagram showing him talking with Bruno Lauer, formerly known as Harvey Wippleman in WWE. In the video, Rock tells their story, including how Lauer helped Rock as a teenager, even having Rock live with him on two occasions. Lauer also bought Rock his first car, so Rock has given Lauer a new truck in a surprise to Lauer.

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that makes me smile quite a bit as there is something so awesome about Lauer’s reaction. Rock has become a huge star and it’s great to see him doing something like this, just to do something for someone who was there for him before. You don’t see something like this happen every day and it’s great to see that Lauer got something for doing a nice thing he did so many years ago.
