There’s always a great deal of pressure on the shoulders of a professional wrestler that has to follow in the footsteps of a famous family member – and that’s especially true for Simone Johnson.

As the daughter of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, there are certain expectations when it comes to what she will be able to do inside the squared circle as she continues her journey at the WWE Performance Center.

One man who is going to be keeping a close eye on her development, obviously, is none other than The Great One himself.

While he may be the biggest star in Hollywood today, Johnson still holds a special place in his heart for the professional wrestling industry – and, with that, comes a love for his daughter’s journey in the business.

While he hasn’t had an official match since back at WrestleMania 32, everyone still expects an anticipates that he’s going to find himself back in the mix for at least one more match before he hangs up his boots for good.

For now, though, it’s all about seeing what sort of success Simone can have at the WWEPC and beyond.
