DWAYNE "THE ROCK" JOHNSON'S daughter is set for her in-ring WWE debut – following in the footsteps of her legendary dad.

The Rock is a ten-time WWE champion and considered one of the all-time greats having joined his dad and grandfather in the business.

But his families legacy in professional wrestling extended further in 2020 when Johnson's daughter Simone signed with the WWE.

She goes by the name Ava Raine and has so far enjoyed an instigator role for NXT stable Schism, made up of Jagger Reid, Joe Gacy and Rip Fowler.

The group has feuded with Chase University and members Andre Chase, Duke Hudson and Thea Hail. 

And now an eight-person match has been booked for the Stand & Deliver event, with Tyler Bate on the side of Chase University.
