Dwayne Johnson has been garnering a significant amount of hate from fans lately. In case you missed it, Johnson turned heel after almost two decades, which has sparked many controversies. But the one that stood out on top is his hate for Cody Rhodes. He blames The American Nightmare and his fans for robbing pro wrestling with one of the greatest matches of all time, The Rock vs Roman Reigns. Thus, he has taken it upon himself to be the Final Boss in Rhodes’ story. However, what almost everyone forgot was that the star still has a heart of gold and, thanks to the Make-A-Wish foundation, fans got a reminder of it.

Dwayne Johnson’s act of kindness shines bright despite him embracing the dark side

The Brahma Bull posted a clip on his Instagram talking about a note he received from the Make-A-Wish foundation. It was another wish that he had to grant, but this time it was a special wish. A two-year-old child suffering from a brain disorder has been hospitalized and wants to see Maui, who is Johnson’s character from the animated movie Moana, sing the song, “You’re Welcome” for her. He then proceeds to do the same.

He wrote in the caption details about Naomi, the kid who wanted to hear Johnson sing the song. The 51-year-old star also assured Noami that “Uncle Maoi” will sing the song for her whenever she needs it.
