Hollywood and wrestling collided in style at the 2025 Golden Globes when WWE NXT General Manager Ava (Simone Garcia Johnson) joined her famous father, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, for an unforgettable night. The duo brought star power to the event, rubbing elbows with some of the biggest names in the entertainment world.
The Rock took the stage alongside his Moana 2 co-star Aulii Cravalho to present the award for Best Supporting Female Actor Motion Picture to Zoe Saldaa for her role in Emilia Prez. While presenting, The Rock kept the room laughing, even cracking a joke about his chest hair being used for Timothy Chalamets mustache. The comedic moment was pure Great One energy, and the audience couldnt get enough.
Later, Ava and her dad were spotted seated with the cast of Emilia Prez, including Zoe Saldaa, Selena Gomez, and Gomezs new fianc, Benny Blanco. Cameras captured the father-daughter duo enjoying the ceremony, adding even more charm to an already glamorous event.
Ava, no stranger to the Golden Globes, was named a Golden Globe Ambassador in 2018, long before her WWE journey began. After joining the WWE Performance Center in 2020, Ava quickly climbed the ranks and now serves as NXT General Manager, showcasing her ability to excel both inside and outside the wrestling world.
While Moana 2 fell short of winning Best Animated Movie, The Rock still managed to deliver an impactful presence at the ceremony, proving why he remains one of Hollywoods most beloved figures. And with WWE Raws Netflix premiere on the horizon, The Rock is already looking ahead to whats next.
The Golden Globes brought together Hollywood royalty, top athletes, and wrestling superstars, and Ava proved shes more than ready to stand alongside her father in the spotlight.
