The Rock recently shared a heartbreaking story on social media amid his absence from WWE on the Road to WrestleMania 41. It garnered a ton of reactions from fans and wrestling personalities, including WWE icon Kelly Kelly.

In a post on his Instagram account, The Final Boss revealed that he granted a wish to one of his young fans on March 11. He met a boy named Kane, whose wish was to meet the man who voiced Maui in the movie Moana.

Kane was battling an illness and sadly passed away a week later. The boy is survived by his parents, Charles and Christine, and twin brother Dennis, whom The Rock intends to meet in the future.

"He may have been quiet, but in his heart, Kane was just singing away…. To his parents, Charles and Christine, I’m so deeply sorry for your loss. Sending all my love, light and aloha. Stay strong. And lastly, to his twin brother, Dennis.. Man you’re an AWESOME brother and I can’t wait to shake your hand one day," the WWE legend wrote.

The Rock has been absent from WWE since Elimination Chamber

At Elimination Chamber, John Cena shocked the world when he aligned with The Rock and turned heel on Cody Rhodes. Cena is set to challenge Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41.

Cena has explained his side and has been face-to-face with The American Nightmare three times on RAW. However, The Final Boss has not been seen in WWE during the build-up to the match, leaving fans wondering whether he'll be in Las Vegas in two weeks or not.

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, The Rock and Travis Scott are expected to make an appearance at WrestleMania 41. The plans for the two stars are reportedly under wraps, with the ultimate goal of helping Cena win his 17th WWE world title.
