After winning the Sunday match, Cena launched into an emotional speech.
The powerfully built wrestler began: '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.'
That's a yes! Bella, who has dated Cena sine 2012, answered him with a kiss (seen here in March at the Kids' Choice Awards)
He said: '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.'
The wrestling star then produced an engagement ring box as he stooped down on one knee.
He said: 'I've been waiting so long to ask you this. Stephanie Nicole Garcia-Colace, will you marry me?'
Bella, who has dated Cena since 2012, answered him with a kiss.

Nikki, who stars on the E! reality series Total Divas, was asked on the talk show The Real in October 2016 if Cena would propose.
At the time, she said: 'I mean, I think so. The past year he's actually talked about that he's open to marriage, so of course like my hopes go way through the roof.
'So, he's like "Oh, let's go have this romantic dinner, and I'm like "This is it."

'I love you, and I love you more than I've loved anyone in my entire life.'
'What I'm afraid of - and this is the one thing I am very much afraid of - if we were to get married tomorrow, and then you come to the conclusion that you want children, you know where I stand.'
'In no way would I ask you to sacrifice anything for me,' he said at the time.
