First, Dwayne Johnson ruled the wrestling world. Next, he battled the box office. Now he’s worried about his battle to rule his daughter, or at least her future suitors.

Simone may only be seven-months-old now, but The Rock is already preparing for her days of dating.

“I’ll try to be very cordial and shake hands with them when they come in, but I’ll have my Scorpion King sword out, and just so they don’t forget I’ll have my wrestling boots in the corner. I think about all that and I cringe because I know how I was at 14, going over to girls’ houses. I’m lucky I’m still alive, with all the dads I met,” he said.
