Dwayne Johnson’s former wife has come a long way. From being referred to as The Rock’s ex-wife in social circles to having her portfolio, Dany Garcia has made a name for herself over the years. In May, the 54-year-old and her 51-year-old ex-husband celebrated the success of the XFL. The duo bought the defunct minor American rules football league along with other investors from Johnson’s former boss Vince McMahon in August 2020.

However, despite that, she is currently under stress due to her daughter, Simone Garcia Johnson, who fans know as Ava Raine in WWE.

Since the start of May, Raine, who is part of The Schism stable, entered into a feud with Diamond Mine’s Ivy Nile. It started after 31-year-old Nile jumped on Raine ringside. In weeks following that incident, Nile and Raine have attacked each other several times, with the senior NXT wrestler having the wood over the 21-year-old.

Last month, Garcia took to Instagram after Nile choked her daughter during a sneak attack by Raine. A similar incident took place on the May 30 episode.

Nile and Cora Jade were having a singles match when Raine tried to attack her recent nemesis. The Pitbull of Diamond Mine was able to not only fend it off but reversed the attack as she managed to choke Schism’s Final Girl. However, Jade was able to take advantage of the distraction and hit her opponent with a DDT to pick up the win.

On the other hand, her daughter’s humiliation didn’t evade Garcia’s notice. She took to Instagram to post another story with the caption: “Oh no!! Not my baby Getting choked out again!!”

Meanwhile, Raine had an interesting explanation for her actions. The 4th generation superstar tweeted about it, in reply to a tweet posted by her employer.

Dwayne Johnson’s daughter is not only feuding with Nile, but she also has an ongoing feud with WWE’s social media team as well. After her latest sneak attack, the promotion shot an angry tweet with a couple of angry emojis, highlighting Raine’s nature. She responded with a cheeky reply: “i thought she was always ready 🤷🏽‍♀️”

Meanwhile, fans are yet to make peace with Ava Raine. With each passing week, the dissent is growing louder. WWE faithful were not happy with the 21-year-old and commented on her wrestling skills.

A post shared by WWE NXT (@wwenxt)

This fan conveyed his frustration: “Remember back in 2013-2019 where the people who came into nxt actually knew what they were doing and could wrestle, at the bare minimum, a competent match, not like ava who can’t do ANYTHING yet, despite her father being one of the all-time greats?”

That’s going to hurt for sure: “I feel bad for the women who work hard, imo The rocks’ daughter is terrible her movements are slow, and her facial expressions are weird. idk I would think she’d have a great trainer”

Raine needs to sell her moves better, according to this critic: “The rocks daughter is so terrible lol she’s needs more practice on her acting skills”

One fan conveyed his point in a blunt way: “Get Ava tf off my screen”
