WWE legend The Rock nearly broke into tears while speaking about his daughter, Ava, during a recent interview. The veteran noted that he was proud of the 24-year-old.Ava became the first fourth-generation wrestler to sign a contract with the Stamford-based company, doing so in 2020. She made her in-ring debut at NXT Stand & Deliver 2023. However, she soon took on the role of an on-screen authority figure, which also saw her become the youngest General Manager in the promotion's history.Earlier today, The Rock took to Instagram to post a video of himself speaking about his daughter. The Brahma Bull noted that he was proud of Ava for carving her own path into the world of professional wrestling. The veteran was visibly emotional and stated that he never used his influence to help his daughter grow in the business."Just got caught up in the moment. If you’re a dad, then I know you know. Props to this interviewer from @mtvuk @mtv for starting the interview by giving my daughter, Simone, HER flowers. Usually all interviews will start with a question about me. Thanks that was really cool of you 🙏🏾👊🏾," he wrote in the caption.
