Ava Raine’s WWE on-screen debut discussed by Jimmy Uso.
This past Tuesday on NXT on USA Network, Ava Raine (Simone Johnson), daughter of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson made her WWE TV debut.
She was revealed as the fourth member of The Schism (Joe Gacy, Rip Fowler & Jagger Reid). Raine has been with WWE for several years and Tuesday was her first televised appearance. She has not wrestled in a sanctioned match as of this writing.
Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champion Jimmy Uso spoke to TMZ and was asked about Raine’s arrival to NXT TV. He said he’s ready to see her pop off and represent the bloodline, adding that she has the support of the family.
Shout out to her [Ava Raine/Simone Johnson], you know what I’m saying? Anyway the family can get it, I’m all for it. I’m ready to see what she do, I’m ready for her to pop off and represent the bloodline. So, either way, whether it’s down there [NXT], up on the main roster, I’m with it, I’m all for it.
Come on man, you already know [she can reach out to us for support]. We’re all family bro. We all look out for her. I’m sure she’s got the whole squad on her side, the whole family, her dad, us, the cousins. I’m sure if she reach out, we got her.
Uso went on to state that the door is open for her to join The Bloodline on the main roster and feels the sky is the limit for her.
It’s always an open door [for her to be part of The Bloodline]. We’ll keep it at that but, you know what I’m saying?
Sky’s the limit. You gotta put your work in here and I’m sure she’s got the workhorse in her like we all do. It runs deep in the blood and I’m excited for her future. I can’t wait to see where it takes us.
