Wedding bells are ringing as two Superstars said “yes” to engagement proposals on Monday Night Raw!
Love has been in the air in the 24/7 Championship division for months, and on the March 28th episode of Monday Night Raw, both Reggie and Akira Tozawa proposed to their partners Dana Brooke and Tamina.
Dana and Reggie first became involved in each other’s lives late last year when Dana defeated Cedric Alexander for the 24/7 Championship immediately after Alexander had ended Reggie’s reign with the title. Reggie helped Dana retain her championship for months, and things heated up on the February 7th episode of Raw when Dana kissed Reggie on the cheek. However, she said that the two were just friends.
In retaliation, Reggie took Dana on a Valentine’s Day date that ended with him pinning her to regain the 24/7 Championship. The next week, Dana laid a kiss on Reggie in the ring and pinned him to once again become 24/7 Champion. Akira Tozawa and Tamina were also in the restaurant spying on the situation as both of them have had title aspirations of their own.
The next week, Dana laid a kiss on Reggie in the ring and pinned him, regaining the 24/7 Championship. The two faced off against Tamina and Akira Tozawa on the February 28th Raw, and after that match, Tamina kissed Tozawa, much to Tozawa’s surprise and delight.
Fast forward to the March 28th episode of Monday Night Raw, and Reggie asked to speak to Dana backstage. He said that every time he tries to ask her something, they get interrupted, but then he got down on one knee and asked, “Will you…?” Dana cut him off, saying that this was so sudden, but he insisted that they didn’t have to wait until the weekend to have a WrestleMania moment and could have one right now.
He then pulled out an engagement ring, and Dana said yes, prompting her new fiancé to put the ring on her finger.

Also backstage, Tamina and Akira Tozawa were watching the scene unfold, and Tozawa said that he also had a question for his beloved. Tamina looked aghast at the suggestion, but Tozawa said that she was his earth, wind, and fire, and pulled out a ring of his own. With a piercing stare, Tamina held up her finger and Tozawa tried to put the ring on her, but it was too small, so he had to lick the ring in order to get it on her finger.
Reggie currently holds the record for the longest 24/7 Championship reign at 114 days.
