Writer, Model + TV Host |

Mayra Dias Gomes is a Brazilian bestselling author, journalist, cover model and professional wrestling personality. 

She has been sober from drugs and alcohol for three years. Mayra started using drugs at age 14. She says problems started after she found out through an internet article that her father, legendary Brazilian writer Dias Gomes, had died in a car accident, when she was just 11. 

At 16, she released a memoir in her home country Brazil, detailing her struggles with drug addiction, depression and co-dependency following her father’s death, and became a bestselling author. She went on to write for several outlets such as Rolling Stone, Glamour, Spin, VH1, MTV, The Hollywood Reporter and many others. She moved to Hollywood when she was 21. 

Today Mayra is an international model and professional wrestling personality. She is an on air host for the National Wrestling Alliance, the world’s oldest and most prestigious professional wrestling company, now owned by Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, who discovered Mayra and brought her into the company. 

Mayra is also a sobriety and mental health advocate, and has been featured on the cover of multiple major magazines such as Playboy, FHM, Cosmopolitan and Forbes, talking about her road to sobriety.
