Former WWE Star Believes Arianna Grace Could Become 'Female Rock'

Former WWE star Santino Marella feels that his daughter and NXT star Arianna Grace has the potential to become 'Female Rock.'

Marella's daughter Arianna Grace made her last appearance on NXT on the October 4th edition of LVL Up. She was part of a tag team match alongside Kiana James, Fallon Henley, and Sol Ruca. Shortly after, Grace revealed via social media that she was injured and would need to undergo surgery the following week.

At NXT Heatwave, Arianna finally returned to NXT in the opening segment.

Santino Marella comments on Arianna Grace

Speaking about Arianna during his appearance on Refin’ It Up, Santino Marella said that he is hopeful of her daughter being called up to WWE’s main roster in 2024. 

Marella went on to state that her injury took place because she was put in the ring with less experienced talents and something went wrong. Marella believes Grace could become a female Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. Here is what he said:

”I can’t wait to go to WrestleMania with my daughter in a match and it’s gonna be so much more fun than going to WrestleMania to participate. Just to go as a dad, you know?… I’m hoping she’s called up some time next year. She’s gonna do well. I’m pretty sure that my lens is objective. It’s not just because she’s my daughter. She’s good, she’s very good and she was really growing in popularity very fast before her knee injury and the reason she got the knee injury is because she knows how to work with people that are green because she knows how to guide them and tell a story and they put her with some rookie athletes and they did something and blew her knee out but, yeah, and I’m not talking about just being there. I’m talking about top-five girls, breaking off into movies later. Our goal is that she’s a female Rock. We’re not just looking to participate. She has the potential to be a female Rock.” [H/t POST Wrestling]

We will have to wait and see if Grace could attain the stature of The Rock.
