As previously reported, WWE has signed Savelina "Lina" Fanene to a developmental deal. According to The Wrestling Observer (via wrestlezone.com) Fanene's grandfather and The Rock's great grandmother were brother and sister. She was a star basketball player from California, and Rock's mother (Ata Johnson) suggested that she try pro wrestling after watching WrestleMania 28 live. Fanene wasn't initially interested in the business, but started looking into wrestling schools in California. She had the tryout with WWE and the company saw enough to give her a chance and sign her to a developmental deal.
