Dana Brooke is best known for her time in WWE, but is also looking to blaze a trail outside the ring.

The 31-year-old Ashley Mae Sebera just signed a five-year extension with WWE, providing further opportunity for her Dana Brooke character to evolve and succeed long-term in the company. But she also wants to expand her impact outside of the company walls by continuing to spread her message of positivity through working with charities, anti-bullying groups, while standing as an advocate for women across the world.

Brooke, who wrestles Bayley Friday night on SmackDown, spoke with Sports Illustrated to share her goals inside and out of WWE, discuss the loss of ex-boyfriend Dallas McCarver, and express her amazement at the amount of people who have been fascinated with her back-and-forth tweets with Dave Bautista.
