Daria Rae Berenato[8] (born September 24, 1993)[9] is an American professional wrestler and mixed martial artist. She is signed to WWE, where she performs on the Raw brand under the ring name Sonya Deville (/ˈsoʊnjə/ SOHN-yə), and as a member of Pure Fusion Collective. She is a former one-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champion.
Deville rose to prominence as a contestant in the 2015 season of WWE Tough Enough, where she finished 11th place. Following her elimination, she signed a contract with WWE and was sent to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. She then performed in WWE's developmental brand, NXT, before moving up to the main roster. She was assigned to the Raw brand in November 2017 in a team with Mandy Rose and Paige called Absolution. Deville and Rose were later drafted to SmackDown and became Fire and Desire before eventually splitting. After taking time off in mid-2020, she returned in January 2021 in a non-wrestling role as an on-screen authority figure alongside Adam Pearce, but resumed wrestling in mid-2022.
In mixed martial arts, she has competed in three fights, holding a record of two wins and one loss.
