Dana Brooke signs new five-year deal with WWE

Another name has joined the list of wrestlers to recently sign a new contract with WWE.

In an interview with Sports Illustrated that was published today, Dana Brooke revealed that she’s signed a new five-year deal: “I just signed a new five-year deal in WWE, and part of my goal is to build my own personal brand. And women empowerment is a key in the success of my career and a key for WWE. We can do what the male wrestlers have done over the years, and now women are finally being given that chance. That also means that I get the chance to show what I can do, and I really believe that 2020 is going to be the year that people see a different side of me.”

After losing to SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley last Friday, Brooke is facing her in another non-title match on SmackDown tonight.

It was also revealed this week that The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E & Xavier Woods) and The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford) have signed multi-year extensions with WWE.
