AEW coach Scotty 2 Hotty announces engagement

AEW coach Scott Garland — the former Scotty 2 Hotty — shared some big news this week, revealing that he is now engaged.

Garland and his partner Eva got engaged at the Disney Family Farm in Marceline, Missouri, where the Walt Disney Hometown Museum is located. Garland is a long-time Disney fan and theme park visitor.

The 52-year-old Garland has been married once before and has two adult children — a daughter named Taylor and son named Keagan.

Back in August, Garland and his son shared a special moment when they teamed together in a dark match at an AEW event. Keagan wrestles on the indies and graduated Ace Steel’s Foundation of Wrestling school this summer after starting the program as a beginner.

Garland is best known for his time competing in WWE as a member of Too Cool during the 1990s and 2000s. He still wrestles in the ring on the indies but is mostly focused on his work behind the scenes as a coach and producer for AEW. Garland started in that role on a trial basis in 2023 and then joined AEW full-time at the start of 2024. He has past experience coaching for WWE in NXT.
