If there is one thing that helped Dwayne Johnson make his way to success, it was his wrestling legacy. While he might be juggling many movie and TV opportunities, he never forgets where he got his initial spring into fame from. And it seems like one of his daughters is going to follow in her father’s footsteps. Simone Johnson, who also goes by Ava Raine, her stage name, is the eldest daughter of Johnson with his ex-wife, Dany Garcia, who is on her way to debut in WWE soon.

But she met with one of the biggest hurdles in a wrestler’s career even before starting it, knee surgeries. While perfectly functioning and without problems, the newest WWE signee’s knee keeps getting out of place while training. She opened up about this on Twitter multiple times but now she doesn’t have to worry about it anymore. After going through her third surgery, she is completely fine to come back to the ring.
