Simone Johnson, the daughter of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, made her first speaking appearance in front of fans during NXT’s live event Saturday night at Engelwood Neighborhood Center in Orlando.
Simone, whose WWE-assigned ring name is Ava Raine, delivered a short promo in the center of the ring between matches at the live event. No reference to her father or her background was ever uttered — that’s not unusual in WWE, which usually changes the names of its wrestlers, even if they are the sons and daughters of famous names of the past.
Johnson didn’t do anything physical and there was no interaction with other wrestlers as part of her appearance.
