The Rock buys his father a new car after he undergoes hip replacement surgery

The Rock is all about family. 

The People's Champion took to Instagram to share a touching story about how he purchased his father, WWE Hall of Famer Rocky Johnson, a new car following the legend's recent hip replacement surgery. 

In the post, The Rock recalls how tough his father was on him as a young man and adds that he’s incredibly grateful for those lessons -- and his father -- because of it. 

Check out the full post below!

 

We all got daddy issues lol. My pops just had his hip replaced and called me and said “Hey Mr. D the surgeon really feels like I should have a bigger car since my hip rehab..” I cut my dad off and just started laughing because I knew what he was hustling for. I said “say no more..I got you.. just go down and pick out what you want” then we hung up and hours later I get this pic. Lol. Hey my old man was a tough MF on me. He’d kick my ass from one side of the gym to the other for years. I hated it when I was a kid, but grateful for it as a man. Im lucky I could do this and thanks for the ass kickins. Thanks Shawn Burnett and Ed Morse Cadillac for handling business for me and finding the gold bow. #MyDoctorSaid #NewHipsAndWhips
