Simone Johnson is the oldest daughter of WWE legend The Rock and his first wife Dany Garcia. It was confirmed last year the 18-year-old had made the decision to step into the family business and begin training to be a wrestler.

Johnson has since arrived at WWE's Performance Center and is now being given some of the best training ahead of her in-ring debut. Simone isn't just following in the footsteps of her father, but her grandfather and great-grandfather as well. This pressure is something that Simone addressed in an interview back in 2020.

"I just have to remind myself, that pressure only exists when I start comparing myself to my parents.. this idea that I want to keep getting into my head is that I'm not my parents. No one is their parents. And Individuality is a gift and I just have to keep remind myself of that, that no matter what pressure, not matter what circumstances, no matter what comparisons are, I love my parents so much. I'm so proud of everything that they've done, but I am my own person. And I just have to remind myself of that, no matter what the circumstances are."

Johnson has been training to be a wrestler with WWE since she was just 16-years-old, but her career has been plagued with knee problems. The wrestler-in-training was once again sidelined last year with an injury and went on to announce that she would have to undergo a third operation on her knee.
