Two WWE stars are now engaged.

On social media Saturday, Kelani Jordan shared a photo of herself with Carmelo Hayes, who could be seen down on one knee proposing. She informed everyone that she said yes back on July 1.

“I said yesss! And I’d say yes in every lifetime,” she wrote.

On Instagram, NXT stars past and present congratulated the couple, including Karmen Petrovic, Tiffany Stratton, Blake Monroe, Lola Vice, and Izzi Dame.

Jordan has been making waves on NXT as the first-ever Women’s North American Champion. In recent months, she has attempted to compete for both the North American and Women’s Championships, but has come up short, losing to Sol Ruca at Battleground and recently losing a Women’s title number one contendership eliminator match to Lash Legend.

Since being called to the main roster as part of the 2024 WWE Draft, Hayes has been seen sparingly on SmackDown, in recent months forming a tag team with The Miz. He was the winner of this year’s Andre the Giant Battle Royal.
