With her NXT debut, Simone Johnson became the first-ever fourth-generation wrestler, continuing the family tradition after Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. For Ava Raine, her ring name, the sky’s the limit given how young she is. And in order to accomplish that, she needs to work out hard, as she recently did while training out with a WCW great.

In a recent tweet, Raine stated this week was phenomenal for her as she crossed something off her bucket list by training out with WCW Legend Meiko Satomura.

Long-time fans of professional wrestling know that Satomura, who has played the sport for more than 25 years, is a legend. It’s interesting to note that the Japanese great made her debut before Dwayne Johnson. She did debut one year before The Rock, who made his in-ring debut in 1996.

Meanwhile, after‌ acquiring enormous knowledge and becoming a legend, she continued to be engaged in sports and often made appearances as a guest trainer at the WWE Performance Center. Thus, getting to learn from the greatest is indeed a big opportunity.

Consequently, Raine states in her tweet that training out with Satomura this week fulfilled a lifelong dream of hers, and she adds that NXT 2.0 is extremely fortunate to have her as their trainer. Meanwhile, fans are excited to see her back in the ring after seeing her perform little and making her debut in a non-televised bout.
