In a recent interview with Forbes, Dana Brooke discussed her date with Batista, wanting to participate in RAW Underground, her dream feud in WWE, and much more. Here are some of the highlights:

Dana Brooke on her date with Batista: “We went out, we were great, great, great friends, we’ve been to the Meat Market down in Tampa, we go to [Edison], also in Tampa, so we kept in great contact. There’s always been interest between Dave and I as far as friendships and everything. We share a lot in common as far as being in the business and outside, and being very passionate about giving back and charity work as well. It’s just with my schedule being so so busy, and Dave doing a lot of movies, our times are very limited. But we still communicate, we still talk on a regular basis, my boyfriend now [Uly Diaz] and him also have a lot in common as far as the fight game goes.”

On her opinion of RAW Underground returning at some point and wanting to be involved with it: “My brain starts going, I’m like ‘this is perfect.’ If [Uly and I] came out, male and female taking over Raw Underground, this would just be incredible. So then I was switched over to Raw—pre-draft—a couple weeks back, and right now they’ll start Raw Underground again and then definitely I’m going to get my feet wet in that, and really take off from there and really show a different side of me. I do believe that Raw Underground will come back, I’m not sure when. I just know that with the last couple weeks with the draft, and everything that has happened, they didn’t have time. I really have no idea, but it was a shock to me to really see that there was no Raw Underground. But I’m hoping and I am praying that it will definitely come back soon and I can make a statement.”

On her dream feud in WWE being against Charlotte Flair: “We can definitely pick up from where we left off. I know during that time is when the brand split started to happen with Raw being on USA and SmackDown being on Fox. With the years that have gone by, it’s only made me a stronger competitor on my own two feet. Being able to face Charlotte once again, she’ll see a whole different person in front of her. Because I know her strategy, I know her tactics, I know everything she has done. I was alongside with her, and with that being said, I was with her in NXT when we were training in the gym, outside of the gym, being on the road with her; so I know her like the back of my hand. It’s a real-life situation, you ave those people in the real world you can count on who you feel are such great, great friends of yours, but then one way or another they’ll kind of use you or manipulate you to get what they want out of certain situations, so I feel like a lot of people can relate to that.”
