WWE News: Dana Brooke reveals how she met Batista for the first time
Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated recently interviewed SmackDown Live Superstar Dana Brooke, who discussed a variety of topics in regards to her career. Brooke talked about her latest Twitter exchanges with WWE veteran Batista and opened up on how she met him for the first time.
I’ve known Dave for a couple years, especially when my ex was bodybuilding. Dave was big in the fitness and bodybuilding scene, and that’s how we met. I’ve always respected what he’s accomplished in WWE and in the movies, and I was quite surprised when he tweeted at me. I’m a very private person, so it was a little shocking for me that everything was out there. But it’s so awesome that people have been so supportive.
