NXT and alliance with Emma (2013–2016)

[edit]

Sebera signed a contract with WWE and was assigned to WWE Performance Center and developmental brand NXT in Orlando, Florida, where she adopted her ring name Dana Brooke, in July 2013.[11] At NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way, Brooke made her first appearance for the brand in a backstage segment with Tyler Breeze.

Brooke made her first televised in-ring debut and defeated Blue Pants on the April 15, 2015 episode of NXT.[12] Brooke was given the entrance theme music titled "Respectful" by CFO$.[13] In the midst of this ongoing feud between Bayley and Emma, Brooke defeated Bayley with a help from Emma on the April 29 episode of NXT, prompting Brooke to form an alliance with Emma.[14] At NXT TakeOver: Unstoppable, Brooke and Emma lost to Bayley and Charlotte after Charlotte pinned Emma.[15][16][17][18][19] Brooke competed in a fatal–four way match on the August 22 taping of NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn (aired on the August 26 episode of NXT), where Brooke lost after Emma picked up the victory by pinning Becky Lynch.[20]

On the March 23, 2016 episode of NXT, Brooke was in the corner for Emma, while Emma faced Asuka in their NXT TakeOver: London rematch and lost, and this would be Brooke's final appearance for the brand until June 2023.[26]

Main roster beginnings and various alliances (2016–2019)

[edit]

Brooke made her main roster debut on the May 9, 2016 episode of Raw, where she assisted Emma to attack Becky Lynch backstage[27] and then three days later, on SmackDown, Brooke defeated Lynch with a help from Emma in Brooke's first singles match on the main roster.[28] Just a few days later, Brooke's association with Emma ended abruptly after Emma suffered a legit back injury during at the WWE's live event.[29] At Extreme Rules on May 22, Brooke interfered in the Women's Championship match between Charlotte and Natalya, costing Natalya's chance to regain the title.[30] The next night on Raw, Brooke aligned herself with Charlotte, whom on this night has turned on her father Ric Flair.[31][32]

Brooke and Charlotte began feuding with Banks. As part of the WWE draft on July 19, 2016, Brooke was drafted to Raw[33][34][35] The next night on Raw after SummerSlam, Brooke and Charlotte began feuding with Bayley, but continued feuding with Banks. In October 2016, Brooke started her own feud with Bayley after the two had a backstage confrontation,[36][37] whom she defeated by using the ropes for leverage on the October 17 episode of Raw,[38] until the rematch between the two features Brooke losing to Bayley at Hell in a Cell on October 30.[39]

Towards the end of 2017, Brooke aligned herself with the faction, called "Titus Worldwide" alongside Apollo Crews and Titus O'Neil.[48][49] At 2018's Royal Rumble pay-per view, Brooke competed in the first ever 30–women Royal Rumble match, entering at number 8 and eliminating NXT's Kairi Sane, only to be eliminated by Torrie Wilson, lasting over 2:59.[50] At WrestleMania 34's kickoff show, Brooke made her WrestleMania debut, competing in the inaugural WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal, where she was eliminated by Mandy Rose.[51] On the September 3 episode of Raw, Brooke was teaming with Ember Moon to take on against Banks and Bayley in a tag-team match, and she and her partner lost when a distraction from Crews and O'Neil causes Brooke to get pinned by Banks, in which led to Brooke ending her association with Crews and O'Neil.[52]

After disbanding with the group by the early September 2018,[52] Brooke took part at the first-ever all women's pay–per–view, called Evolution, competing in the battle royal for a future women's championship match, where she lost after being eliminated by Moon.[53] At 2019's Royal Rumble pay-per view, Brooke competed in the second women's Royal Rumble match, where she entered at number 22 and lasted 7:17, but was eliminated by NXT UK's Rhea Ripley.[54] On the March 11 episode of Raw, Brooke confronted the-then Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey for disrespecting wrestling and challenging her to a title match until Rousey accepts by attacking Brooke.[55] The following week on Raw, Brooke lost to Rousey in over a few seconds, who the latter successfully retained her Raw Women's title.[56] Brooke talked about that the promo with Rousey was a Paul Heyman-inspired shoot promo that enabled her to express her actual frustrations and her true feelings.[57]

Brooke, alongside Apollo Crews (left) and Titus O'Neil (right), formed the group Titus Worldwide.

At WrestleMania 35's kickoff show, Brooke competed the second WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal, where despite scoring two eliminations, Brooke was being eliminated by Sonya Deville.[58][59] After defeating Tamina[60] and Ruby Riott on Main Event in mid-April,[61] during "A Moment of Bliss" on the April 29 episode of Raw, Bliss announced Brooke as one of the participants for the women's Money in the Bank ladder match[62][63][64] but at 2019's Money in the Bank pay-per view, she was unsuccessful at winning the women's MITB ladder match.[65]

Brooke did not win.[75] Brooke was traded back to Raw on September 28, 2020,[76] but suffered a legitimate injury on November, which resulted in Brooke being pulled from their upcoming involvement during the 2020 Survivor Series pay-per-view event.[77] To remove Brooke from the event, writers worked an angle in which Brooke was attacked by Reckoning, leaving her unable to compete.[77] On November 30, Brooke defeated Reckoning in singles competition.[78]
