The Rock’s daughter, Simone Johnson, made her WWE NXT TV debut this past Tuesday night as Ava Raine by being revealed as the fourth member of The Schism (Joe Gacy, Rip Fowler & Jagger Reid).
Raine cut a brief promo. She has been with the company for a few years while training but hasn’t wrestled a match.
While speaking with TMZ, Jimmy Uso talked about Raine’s arrival on NXT TV. he praised her and noted that she has the full support of the family to have a successful career while representing The Bloodline.
“Shout out to her…anyway the family can get it, I’m all for it. I’m ready to see what she do. I’m ready for her to pop off and represent The Bloodline. So, either way, whether it’s down there [NXT], up on the main roster, I’m with it, I’m all for it. We’re all family bro. We all look out for her. I’m sure she’s got the whole squad on her side, the whole family, her dad, us, the cousins. I’m sure if she reaches out, we got her.”
Jimmy noted that the door is always open for her to be part of the faction that includes Roman Reigns, The Usos, Paul Heyman, and the honorary uce, Sami Zayn.
“We’ll see, bro. It’s always an open door. We’ll keep it at that, but the sky’s the limit. You gotta put your work in here, and I’m sure she’s got the workhorse in her like we all do. It runs deep in the blood, and I’m excited for her future. I can’t wait to see where it takes us.”
