Dwayne Johnson is extremely busy with his Hollywood career these days and that means the chances of him returning to WWE are sadly somewhere between slim and none. He's shooting movies pretty much all year round and insurance issues mean that he probably wouldn't be allowed to wrestle regardless. However, it seems he may be ready to pass the baton on to his eldest daughter.
16-year-old Simone is the spitting image of her father and he's excited about what the future holds in store for her. Noting that she's already successful for her age, he confirmed she wants to wrestle.
"You know what the crazy thing about my oldest daughter, Simone, is she’s so smart, we’re all so proud of her. She’s going into her senior year. She signed with IMG as a model. She was Golden Globes Ambassador. Simone, is working so hard, and her work has already started, she wants to be a WWE wrestler." She's not kidding around either and is clearly committed.
"I love that idea and I think – we had this big conversation," he revealed. "She came with me to Hong Kong and Beijing and I said ‘Honey, whatever your passion is, I support that.’ It (wrestling) was good to me, I started my career in Madison Square Garden so, yeah. Bring it on. She’s gonna be a champ!" So, Simone will likely report to the Performance Center in 2020!
Just how much success she'll have remains to be seen but The Rock's cousins - Roman Reigns, Nia Jax, and The Usos - have all done well, so here's hoping she finds a similar level of success.
