WWE NXT video highlights: Ava Raine debuts

Last night’s NXT featured the WWE television debut of Simone Johnson.

Weeks of a mysterious hooded figure appearing led to Johnson being revealed as the newest member of the Schism last night. Johnson, who is going by the in-ring name “Ava Raine,” joins Joe Gacy, Rip Fowler, and Jagger Reid in the faction.

Simone is the eldest daughter of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. After unmasking last night, she cut the first televised promo of her career.

“The love and acceptance the Schism has given me defies any preconceived notions of who I’m supposed to be,” Simone said. “This family completes me.”

Simone is the first fourth-generation wrestler in WWE history. She joined the WWE Performance Center in February 2020.

Also on last night’s show, Ilja Dragunov and JD McDonagh faced off in the main event, two Tag Team title matches took place, and R-Truth stopped by NXT to set up a match with Grayson Waller for next week.
