Reynolds shared the news on his Twitter earlier this evening, subsequently causing the raffle website to crashh due to a surge in traffic.

This is Bea. She’s one of four swords I used in Deadpool 2. I‘ve signed it. I want to help the @RMHBC and I think you do too… If you want to take Bea home, go to: //t.co/j9s8YHpiI4 pic.twitter.com/oJf0XdOb7t
