“Jett, I want you to know buddy it’s so good meeting you. I’ve heard so much about you, and I’ve heard the most amazing things about you. Honestly, it’s the best part of my day,” the former wrestling star says to Jett in the clip. 

“I was working today, and I was making a television show. It’s called ‘Young Rock’ and I could not wait to see you and talk to you and finally meet you,” Johnson continues before holding up a piece of paper. “Look, it just goes on and on and on. There’s all this amazing stuff here about you. Truly, this makes my day. Thank you so much for even giving me the time to say hello and meet you.”

Jett was sitting on the couch with his family members when his mother shared with Johnson how “proud” she is of the five-year-old’s fight. She also thanked the actor for “shining a light” on her family during dark days.

“You have a special son,” Johnson reacted. He was visibly emotional and apologized after he paused to collect himself.

Johnson was told Jett looks up to him as a “superhero.” But the actor said he believes Jett is “way stronger, braver and kinder than I’ll ever be.” 

He concluded that it was “a PRIVILEGE” to talk to Jett and that the little boy is “SO STRONG that [he] has a SUPER POWER by simply giving a thumbs up.”

Johnson’s generosity also extends to his loved ones. Last month, the actor captured the emotional moment he gifted his mom, Ata Johnson, a Cadillac during the holidays. 

The 49-year-old took to Instagram documenting his gift. The first slide showed the star covering his mother’s eyes as his children count down before screaming, “Merry Christmas!” Once the 73-year-old opened her eyes, she spotted the shiny vehicle with a big red bow sitting in the driveway. Ata pauses briefly before gasping in disbelief. After putting her hand over her mouth, the tears began to flow.

“This one felt good,” Johnson captioned the video. “Surprised my mom with a new car for Christmas today. She was shocked. She got a few ugly cries in.”
