I don't know if it was really necessary to bury a super-over Miz in order to set this angle up. Judging by the reactions, few in attendance gave two hoots save Nikki Bella herself; it was utterly self-indulgent and sappier than a tree.

It's hard not to feel a bit sorry for John; it doesn't seem like he had much choice in this proposal. Did he really wait all this time just so he could pop the question in front of 73,000 people following a low-key mixed-tag match? Is this the sort of situation that presages a long and happy marriage?

Either way, it was nauseatingly saccharine, and totally unnecessary. A 'WrestleMania' moment forced down our throats like a couple of fingers. Having said that, all the best to the happy couple.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
