WWE Plans Major Push for The Rock’s Daughter Ava, Tying Her Character to His Iconic Persona

WWE has significant plans to elevate Ava, daughter of The Rock, to a more prominent role on television, with a focus on her NXT General Manager persona.

We are told plans could include her playing off the final boss character on TV as a way to raise her importance. Ava, from all accounts as well-liked and could have a big future with the company.”

The Rock and Ava also shared a backstage segment with Ethan Page during a recent episode of NXT, further solidifying the family connection on screen.
