It’s been more than two years in the making, but Simone Johnson is finally getting ready to make her WWE debut.

The daughter of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson took to her social media platforms, including Instagram and Twitter, on Sunday to announce her new professional wrestling name.

The 20-year-old, who’s a fourth generation World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wrestler on her dad’s side of the family, will be going by the moniker Ava Raine.

To mark the occasion, Johnson posted an image of her new wrestling name on her Instagram Stories.

It was written out in thin red letters, with several white lightening bolts all around it, in varying degrees.

Simone actually signed her deal with the WWE in early 2020, but her debut has been pushed back due to a few injuries that ended up requiring surgery and the rehabilitation that follows.

When making the announcement, Simone took to Instagram and posted a photo of herself wearing a gray WWE t-shirt, while flashing a prideful smile.

‘To the little girl who fell in love with wrestling & said “this will be my life one day”, this is for you. I’m humbled, grateful & ready to work. Let’s do this. @wwe @wwenxt,’ she captioned the post.
