Simone Johnson

A former American professional wrestler, Simone Johnson performed under the ring names Ava and Ava Raine in WWE, appearing as the on-screen general manager of the NXT brand. The first fourth-generation wrestler in WWE history, she inherited a legendary lineage connecting her to wrestling royalty. She debuted on NXT television in October 2022 as part of Joe Gacy’s Schism faction, though her in-ring career was brief with six recorded matches before transitioning to NXT General Manager at age 22, becoming the youngest person to hold that title.

Johnson elected not to renew her WWE contract in January 2026, ending her six-year tenure with the promotion. The exit came down to many accumulating factors, and she is now working alongside her mother, Dany Garcia. The probability that she returns to a major wrestling promotion is low based on her own stated discomfort with high-scale public entertainment.
