The Rock is a WWE Hall of Famer and a significant figure in the pro wrestling industry. His daughter, Simone Johnson, made her much-anticipated debut on WWE’s NXT brand and has since become a regular on television. Nevertheless, WWE has demonstrated its inclination to change a person’s name, as Simone has not been exempt from this practice.
On NXT, Simone Johnson was introduced as Ava Raine, a member of the Schism stable. However, the group referred to her this week using only her first name. WWE has since made this name change official on their roster page, reducing the 21-year-old NXT Superstar to a one-name act, similar to her famous father.
The Rock began his WWE career as Rocky Maivia, incorporating his family’s names into one. He then transitioned into the persona of The Rock after turning heel, and the rest is history. The future is uncertain for Ava, but it is clear that she is just at the beginning of her career.
The Rock gained immense popularity for his dynamic microphone skills, larger-than-life personality, and iconic catchphrases like “Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?” and “If you smell what The Rock is cooking.” Ava has yet to develop her marketable catchphrase, but she has plenty of time to do so.
