“Leave Me Out Of This”: Dwayne Johnson’s Daughter Receives “Death Threats” After Cody Rhodes Loses Out on WrestleMania 40 Main-Event

Fans have not been happy since it was revealed that Dwayne Johnson will be taking Cody Rhodes’ spot at WrestleMania 40. Since then, there has been massive outrage by fans as they take over social media platforms to voice their opinion. While there is nothing wrong in doing so, other stars have been facing collateral damage from the situation. One such star is Dwayne Johnson’s daughter Simone Johnson a.k.a Ava Raine. The youngest NXT General Manager shared the extent to which the situation has gotten out of hand.

Dwayne Johnson’s daughter faces collateral damage

In a recent tweet, the former member of the NXT stable Schism shared what she has been going through since the heart-breaking news came out. In one tweet she wrote, “Can ya’ll just leave me out of this ffs I’m busy running a SHOW”. Here she was referring to the NXT Vengeance Day Premium Live Event, which was her first PLE as the NXT’s General Manager. Subsequently, she revealed what she was talking about.

At the 02/02 episode of SmackDown, it was revealed that Rhodes would be taking a step back so that Johnson could challenge Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40. Fans since then have been angry about the whole situation as they feel Rhodes deserves the spot.

Since then, fans have started an online petition to show their support for Cody Rhodes. While it was something that could be considered harmless, fans started hijacking the comments sections of Dwayne Johnson’s social media posts, calling him out for the deed.

However, it is not just Ava Raine who called out the fans’ actions. There are other stars who have done the same.

Stars calling out fans

Since the 02/02 episode of SmackDown ended, fans have been petitioning for Cody Rhodes. While stars do love to see how much fans support them, a couple of them felt that things might have gotten out of hand. In a now-deleted- tweet, Raw star Sami Zayn pointed out that fans might have taken things too far. In the tweet, he mentioned that there are other “tragedies” happening around us and this makes the “wrestling drama” seem less important.

Zayn received massive backlash on his tweet which forced him to delete the tweets. Another star, Ricochet, weighed in on the situation as well. He mentioned in a tweet that while he is a massive supporter of Cody Rhodes in the situation, he believes that the IWC (Internet Wrestling Community) proved to be “toxic.”  Have the fans over the internet taken their campaign way too far? Did Ava Raine, Sami Zayn, and other stars deserve the collateral damage caused by WWE’s creative decisions?
