When Dwayne walked through the door with the kids, he found Kourtney clutching her phone as her life depended on it.


"What's wrong?" Dwayne asked.


Kourtney bit her lip to hold the tears in but failed.


"I just got a phone call from Sheila. Your dad had a heart attack, and he didn't make it. He's dead, Dwayne." Kourtney answered.


Dwayne rushed to his wife's side, holding his arms open so she could collapse in them.


"I can't believe this. I can't believe he's gone." He said, tearing up.


Kourtney looked up at the camera and the crew.


"Please turn off the cameras. We can't film anymore. Please." Kourtney said as she wiped the tears off her face.

Rocky Johnson, WWE pioneer, and father of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, dies at 75



Rocky "Soulman" Johnson, a WWE Hall of Fame wrestler who became better known as the father of actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, has died. He was 75.


WWE issued a statement on Johnson's death Wednesday night. Johnson and Tony Atlas became the first black world tag team champions in WWE history when they defeated The Wild Samoans on Dec. 10, 1983.


"A loss for every fan of @WWE, Rocky Johnson was a barrier-breaking performer. Our thoughts are with his family at this time," WWE executive and wrestler Paul "Triple H" Levesque tweeted.


Johnson later helped train his son, who adopted the Rocky moniker from his father. Johnson came to his son's aid after a match at WrestleMania in 1997. The Rock inducted his father into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2008.


Former professional wrestler Brian Blair, another 1980s WWE star, was friends with Johnson for decades and they still went to church together in the Tampa, Florida area. Blair told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Johnson had complained of an unspecified illness of late and had missed church that he attended with Blair and other former wrestlers. Blair said Johnson's wife, Sheila, was distraught over her husband's death.


"He was just under the weather, he thought he had the flu or something," Blair said by phone. "I said, 'You, need to get checked out, Rocky.' He said he'd be OK. Then he missed this Sunday, a few days ago. When I talked to him again, he said he still wasn't feeling good and he still missed church. He still didn't get checked out. I talked to Sheila and she said he was just being stubborn. He died at home, today."


Johnson was born Wayde Douglas Bowles and started his wrestling career in the mid-1960s. He spent the bulk of his career in the National Wrestling Alliance and later joined the then-World Wrestling Federation in the 1980s. He formed a tag team with Atlas known as "Soul Patrol" and became of one the popular teams of the era. Johnson retired in the early 1990s, but helped introduce his son to officials at WWE.

"Kourtney! Where are you?!" Kris exclaimed as she quickly walked upstairs.


"In the bedroom!" Kourtney shouts as she lays on the bed.


Kris enters the master bedroom and immediately starts tearing up. She walks over to Kourtney and hugs her.


"Oh, how is everything? Is there anything you guys need me to do? How's Dwayne doing?" Kris asked as Kourtney started tearing up again.


Kris hands her a tissue, and Kourtney wipes her eyes.



"Like, I don't know what to say. Shelia is a mess. Dwayne is so strong, and I feel so nauseous. It feels like dad all over again." Kourtney said.


"Did you guys tell the kids yet?" Kris asked.


"No, we haven't," Kourtney answered.


Reign walks in with Tiana.


Tears welled up in her eyes again.


"Can you come to hug me?" Kourtney asks as she implores Reign.


Reign was still confused, seeing that both his mom and grandma were crying, but he nodded.


"No more crying; feel better," Reign told her after he finished embracing his mother.


Kris picked Tiana and started rocking Tiana back and forth as Kourtney got off the bed.


"Dwayne is helping Shelia plan the funeral," Kourtney said.


"Everyone will be there," Kris said.

Confessional Interview


Kourtney POV



I need to take charge. Dwayne and our family are going through a significant loss, and I need to be strong for both of us. It's not easy losing a parent, and after my experience with losing my dad. I need to make sure Dwayne feels the best and gets to grieve for his father. Rocky was a good man and a great teacher to Dwayne, and I'll make sure our children know what a wonderful grandfather Rocky was to them. His death has changed our perspective on everything.

After putting the kids to bed, Dwayne crawled into bed and stared up at the ceiling, unable to sleep.


Kourtney turned around to look at Dwayne. "I'm here if you need to talk." She said.


"I know. I love you, and thank you for all of this." Dwayne said.


And then his face crumpled, and he burst into sobs again.


Kourtney grabbed his hand and let him cry his grief out.


"Everything is going to be okay," Kourtney said as she pulled him into a hug.


Tears welled up in her eyes again, and Kourtney choked them back down so she could comfort Dwayne.


Dwayne could only bob his head.


"It was sudden, and there was nothing anybody could do," Kourtney said.


Dwayne felt numb.

The Rock Posts Emotional Instagram After Dad Rocky's Death


TIM DANIELS


Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson paid tribute to his father, WWE Hall of Famer Rocky Johnson, following his death Wednesday at age 75.


Johnson posted an emotional message Friday on Instagram alongside a video that showed him as a kid watching his father wrestle:


"I love you.


"You broke color barriers, became a ring legend, and trail blazed your way thru this world. I was the boy sitting in the seats, watching and adoring you, my hero from afar. The boy you always raised to be proud of our cultures and proud of who and what I amโ€”the boy you grew with the toughest of love.


"The intense work. The hard hand. The adoring boy who wanted to know only your best qualities. Who then grew to become a man realizing you had other deep complex sides that needed to be held and understood. Son to father. Man to man. That's when my adoration turned to respect. And my empathy turned to gratitude.


"Grateful that you gave me life. Grateful you gave me life's invaluable lessons. Dad, I wish I had one more shot to tell you, I love you, before you crossed over to the other side. But you were ripped away from me so fast without warning. Gone in an instant and no coming back.


"I'm in pain. But we both know it's just pain and it' ll pass. Now I'll carry your mana and work ethic with me, as it's time to move on because I have my family to feed and work to accomplish.


"Finally, I want you to rest your trailblazing soul, Soulman. Pain free, regret free, satisfied and at ease. You lived a very full, very hard, barrier breaking life and left it all in the ring. I love you dad and I'll always be your proud and grateful son.


"Go rest high."


The Rock also revealed that his father died from a heart attack:


"A lot of you guys wanted to know what happened to my dad. He had not been feeling well, had been battling a cold and infection and on Tuesday he had what's called a deep vein thrombosis, which is essentially a clot in the leg.


"It was a big ole blood clot that broke free, traveled up his body, and went right to his lung, clotted his lung and he died very quickly from a massive heart attack, just like that."


Rocky Johnson, the former son-in-law of wrestling legend Peter Maivia, was born in Canada, and his career in the squared circle spanned nearly three decades. He got his start with the National Wrestling Alliance in 1964 and worked for numerous promotions, including a four-year WWE stint, before his 1991 retirement.


He proceeded to help train his son, who debuted in WWE as Rocky Maivia as an homage to his grandfather and father. The younger Johnson's ring name was later changed to The Rock, and he transformed into one of the most accomplished wrestlers in history before taking over Hollywood.


Johnson was inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame alongside Maivia in 2008. The Rock delivered the induction speech.
