Breaking:The Rock’s Daughter Ava Gets Death Threats amid Cody Rhodes, WWE WrestleMania Rumors

NXT star Ava said she has received death threats as a result of her father, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, getting positioned for a main-event match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL.

Ava referenced her on-screen role as the NXT general manager, which even in storylines wouldn’t empower her to fill out the WrestleMania card. She added she has gotten “death threats over a situation i have nothing to do with”:

death threats over a situation i have nothing to do with … bffr

I’m not talking about my stuff because honestly I couldn’t care less, but if you’re going to hijack a comments section in support of Cody maybe stick to the relevant ones because flooding the posts about young excited NXT talents just sends the wrong message.

A match between The Rock and Reigns has long been rumored, and the former dropped the biggest hint yet it could finally become real when he showed up at Raw Day 1. He told the crowd he was heading out to eat and asked whether he should “sit at the head of the table.”

Rhodes’ rallying cry to “finish the story” didn’t start as a specific reference to Reigns. His loss to the champion at WrestleMania 39 led many to assume, however, the past year has been spent building up to him avenging that defeat. Instead, his focus is apparently shifting elsewhere.

It doesn’t make narrative sense and furthers the impression there’s a glass ceiling in place for the wrestlers who show up and put in the work every week. When push comes to shove, WWE would rather lean on stars who were popular in a past era. It’s a debate that has raged on for years.

But with the discourse surrounding Rhodes specifically, Ava’s revelation is a stark reminder there’s a time, place and manner for fans to vent their frustration with the current product.
