Winners: John Cena and Nikki Bella
After the match, Cena took the mic. Fans started booing and yelling no. Cena told Nikki that this is what she wanted. He said she broke her neck over a year ago and she did everything she could to come back because she wanted a WrestleMania moment. Cena said he was very proud of her. Cena recalled she was loopy before surgery and he could ask anything he wanted and she wouldn’t remember what they talked about.
Cena said he promised he would tell Nikki when the time was right. “The time is right,” Cena said. He recalled when she was being wheeled into the OR. Cena recalled asking her if she knew that one day he would marry her. “I just need you to say yes one more time,” he said. Cena pulled out a ring box, got on one knee, said her full name, and asked her to marry him. She gave him a big hug and kiss. Cena put the ring on her finger. Cena spoke into Nikki’s ear as they embraced and then they kissed again. “She said yes,” Cena mouthed as he raised her hand. They kissed again, then went to ringside and celebrated with family. They walked up the ramp and kissed more…
