Legendary wrestler, John Cena stunned fans when he got down on one knee to propose to Nikki Bella, his longtime girlfriend and wrestling partner, in front of thousands of spectators.
The proposal happened in the middle of the ring at WrestleMania after Cena and Bella beat The Miz and Maryse in a mixed tag team match on Sunday.
A brave Cena grabbed a microphone after the match and said to Bella:
This is what you wanted over a year ago. You broke your neck and did everything you could to come back because you wanted a WrestleMania moment. I’m so very proud of you
Right before your surgery, there would be a time when you would be a little loopy and I could ask you anything I wanted. If you gave me an honest answer, you wouldn’t remember what you said. After a year and half, you asked me all the time. I promised I would tell you when the time is right. The time is right.
“You were kinda glassy, in and out. At the last moment, I said, ‘Can you hear me?’ You said, ‘Yes.’ I said, ‘I only have one question.’ You said, ‘What is it?’
“Do you know one day I’m going to marry you? And you said, ‘Yes.’
‘I just need you to say yes one more time.’
Cena then reached into his pocket, pulled out a ring box and got on bended knee.
‘I have been waiting so long to ask you this, ‘Will you marry me?’
Bella nodded. The two then kissed and embraced.
This will be Cena’s second marriage, following his divorce from his first wife, Elizabeth Huberdeau, in 2012.
