1
00:00:01,125 --> 00:00:04,161
[Stephanie McMahon] Bow down to
your queen.
2
00:00:04,395 --> 00:00:05,663
Me.
3
00:00:05,664 --> 00:00:08,797
[Michael Cole] When you think of
the most powerful women in WWE
4
00:00:08,798 --> 00:00:10,833
history, one name comes to mind.
5
00:00:10,834 --> 00:00:11,884
Stephanie McMahon.
6
00:00:11,885 --> 00:00:14,235
[Stephanie] You think the world
owes you something.
7
00:00:14,236 --> 00:00:15,503
Well, guess what?
8
00:00:15,504 --> 00:00:19,040
Reality comes around, and it
slaps you right in the face.
9
00:00:19,041 --> 00:00:22,609
[Michael] From a billion-dollar
princess to a corporate titan.
10
00:00:22,610 --> 00:00:25,044
[Stephanie] I can do what I want
when I want.
11
00:00:25,045 --> 00:00:27,179
[Michael] Whether settling
differences inside the ring
12
00:00:27,180 --> 00:00:31,216
or playing a crucial role in
shaping WWE behind the scenes,
13
00:00:31,217 --> 00:00:33,985
the impact that Stephanie has
left on WWE
14
00:00:33,986 --> 00:00:35,154
cannot be understated.
15
00:00:35,988 --> 00:00:39,189
[Stephanie] Finally, all of you
have recognized
16
00:00:39,190 --> 00:00:41,593
what's best for business.
17
00:00:42,626 --> 00:00:45,828
[Michael] Today, we're looking
back at the remarkable career
18
00:00:45,829 --> 00:00:47,430
of Stephanie McMahon.
19
00:00:47,431 --> 00:00:50,433
This is WWE's Greatest Moments.
20
00:00:50,434 --> 00:00:53,001
[WWE's Greatest Moments' music]
21
00:00:53,002 --> 00:00:54,635
[The Rock] If you smell-
22
00:00:54,636 --> 00:00:57,104
[Michael] Oh, my God, what the
hell are you doing?
23
00:00:57,105 --> 00:00:59,875
[Jim Ross] Absolutely
unbelievable.
24
00:01:00,608 --> 00:01:02,598
[Gorilla Monsoon] Hulkamania is
here.
25
00:01:05,906 --> 00:01:11,784
{\an8}[Michael] Welcome, everyone, to
WWE's Greatest Moments.
26
00:01:11,785 --> 00:01:14,018
{\an8}I'm Michael Cole, and
on this edition,
27
00:01:14,019 --> 00:01:17,029
{\an8}we're looking back at
the best of Stephanie McMahon.
28
00:01:17,724 --> 00:01:20,257
[Stephanie McMahon's music]
29
00:01:20,258 --> 00:01:21,425
[Michael] Having the McMahon
family lineage,
30
00:01:21,426 --> 00:01:23,727
Stephanie was born into the
business,
31
00:01:23,728 --> 00:01:26,195
but it wasn't until 1999 that
Stephanie McMahon
32
00:01:26,196 --> 00:01:29,132
started to appear on WWE
television.
33
00:01:29,133 --> 00:01:33,335
Introduced as the kind and
innocent daughter of the boss,
34
00:01:33,336 --> 00:01:36,271
Stephanie was caught in the
middle of her father's rivalry
35
00:01:36,272 --> 00:01:37,738
with Triple H.
36
00:01:37,739 --> 00:01:39,373
[Triple H] You keep coming up
with new ways to screw me,
37
00:01:39,374 --> 00:01:41,508
I'll keep coming up with
ways to go through it.
38
00:01:41,509 --> 00:01:43,176
Don't you worry.
39
00:01:43,177 --> 00:01:44,944
[Michael] At Armageddon,
Stephanie McMahon would be
40
00:01:44,945 --> 00:01:48,247
forced to sit ringside to watch
her dad defend her honor in a
41
00:01:48,248 --> 00:01:51,750
match that would change the
professional and personal lives
42
00:01:51,751 --> 00:01:53,353
of Steph and The Game.
43
00:01:57,022 --> 00:01:59,432
{\an8}[Jim] The time has come, no
holds barred.
44
00:01:59,433 --> 00:02:01,491
{\an8}[Stephanie]
Armageddon 1999.
45
00:02:01,492 --> 00:02:05,095
{\an8}It's this big match, my dad,
Vince McMahon, against Triple H,
46
00:02:05,096 --> 00:02:08,130
and he's beating the crap out of
my dad
47
00:02:08,131 --> 00:02:09,799
who's fighting for my honor.
48
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,367
[Jim] That's her father that's
getting punished here.
49
00:02:12,368 --> 00:02:14,035
{\an8}[Triple H] The match with Vince
and I,
50
00:02:14,036 --> 00:02:15,770
people sympathized with him,
51
00:02:15,771 --> 00:02:17,705
and you're doing horrible stuff
to him.
52
00:02:17,706 --> 00:02:19,207
[Stephanie] Dad, get up.
53
00:02:19,674 --> 00:02:21,441
[Jim] Don't let him do it.
54
00:02:21,442 --> 00:02:23,276
Oh, McMahon got a low blow in.
55
00:02:23,277 --> 00:02:26,245
[Stephanie] There comes this
moment where finally my dad
56
00:02:26,246 --> 00:02:30,050
has the sledgehammer, and I say
to my dad, "Let me do it."
57
00:02:30,051 --> 00:02:31,650
[Jerry Lawler] She wants to hit
him.
58
00:02:31,651 --> 00:02:32,817
[Jim] I think you're right.
59
00:02:32,818 --> 00:02:33,818
Hit him.
60
00:02:33,819 --> 00:02:35,253
[Stephanie] And I just can't do
it.
61
00:02:35,254 --> 00:02:38,444
[Jim] Stephanie didn't have the
heart to use the sledgehammer.
62
00:02:39,991 --> 00:02:41,325
God Almighty.
63
00:02:41,326 --> 00:02:42,492
[Stephanie] And he pins my
father.
64
00:02:42,493 --> 00:02:43,726
[bell rings]
65
00:02:43,727 --> 00:02:45,295
[Stephanie] I'm pouring my
heart out all over my dad.
66
00:02:45,296 --> 00:02:48,364
And then, at just the right
moment-
67
00:02:51,734 --> 00:02:52,784
I smile.
68
00:02:53,403 --> 00:02:55,536
[Jim] For the love of God.
69
00:02:55,537 --> 00:02:59,240
{\an8}[Trish Stratus] Seeing the sweet
Stephanie aligning with evil
70
00:02:59,241 --> 00:03:02,042
{\an8}Triple H was something nobody
saw coming.
71
00:03:02,043 --> 00:03:03,510
[Jim] What is this?
72
00:03:03,511 --> 00:03:05,045
[Stephanie] That's part of what
made it so great
73
00:03:05,046 --> 00:03:06,412
that nobody saw it coming.
74
00:03:06,413 --> 00:03:07,614
And nobody did.
75
00:03:08,682 --> 00:03:10,792
[Jim] She's turned her back on
her father.
76
00:03:10,793 --> 00:03:13,017
[Stephanie] And I've never
looked back.
77
00:03:13,018 --> 00:03:14,453
[laughing]
78
00:03:16,121 --> 00:03:17,441
[Jim] I don't believe this.
79
00:03:17,442 --> 00:03:22,125
[Michael] After aligning herself
with her husband, Triple H,
80
00:03:22,126 --> 00:03:25,196
Stephanie would unleash a power
struggle within her family.
81
00:03:25,197 --> 00:03:27,163
[Triple H] Here's to a new era.
82
00:03:27,164 --> 00:03:29,214
[Stephanie] The McMahon-Helmsley
era.
83
00:03:29,215 --> 00:03:31,232
[Michael] Steph and The Game
would stop at nothing to keep
84
00:03:31,233 --> 00:03:32,368
control of WWE.
85
00:03:33,302 --> 00:03:36,203
And with DX in tow, the power
couple was unbeatable.
86
00:03:36,204 --> 00:03:38,773
[Stephanie] Don't make me tell
you to shut up.
87
00:03:38,774 --> 00:03:42,275
[Michael] Stephanie would find
herself in her first
88
00:03:42,276 --> 00:03:45,311
championship opportunity against
Women's Champion, Jacqueline,
89
00:03:45,312 --> 00:03:48,281
where she looked to add a piece
of gold to the queendom.
90
00:03:49,115 --> 00:03:52,918
{\an8}So, Stephanie
McMahon-Helmsley,
91
00:03:52,919 --> 00:03:55,689
{\an8}for the first time ever,
will step into the ring.
92
00:03:55,690 --> 00:03:58,689
[Stephanie] I always wanted to
learn how to wrestle,
93
00:03:58,690 --> 00:04:01,992
and I had been training
for quite a while.
94
00:04:01,993 --> 00:04:02,993
[bell rings]
95
00:04:02,994 --> 00:04:03,994
[Jerry] Oh, no, he's starting
the match.
96
00:04:03,995 --> 00:04:04,761
[Michael] And the referee rang
the bell.
97
00:04:04,762 --> 00:04:05,997
He started the match.
98
00:04:06,630 --> 00:04:07,763
Now, wait a minute.
99
00:04:07,764 --> 00:04:08,844
[Jerry] Hey, look out.
100
00:04:08,845 --> 00:04:10,366
[Michael] Jacqueline going after
Stephanie.
101
00:04:10,367 --> 00:04:11,166
[Jerry] Oh, no, she's got her.
102
00:04:11,167 --> 00:04:12,234
She's got her.
103
00:04:12,235 --> 00:04:13,167
[Michael] Jacqueline going after
Stephanie McMahon.
104
00:04:13,168 --> 00:04:14,002
[Jerry] Run away, run away.
105
00:04:14,003 --> 00:04:14,869
[Michael] Hey.
106
00:04:14,870 --> 00:04:16,471
X-Pac from behind just tripped
her.
107
00:04:16,472 --> 00:04:19,072
{\an8}[Road Dogg] That doe-eyed young
girl,
108
00:04:19,073 --> 00:04:21,275
{\an8}she played it so perfectly.
109
00:04:21,276 --> 00:04:22,442
[Michael] DDT.
110
00:04:22,443 --> 00:04:23,477
[Jerry] Oh.
111
00:04:23,478 --> 00:04:24,910
[Michael] Tori just planted
Jacqueline.
112
00:04:24,911 --> 00:04:27,213
[Stephanie] I don't know what to
do, and DX is telling me,
113
00:04:27,214 --> 00:04:27,947
"Cover her.
114
00:04:27,948 --> 00:04:29,181
Cover her."
115
00:04:29,182 --> 00:04:31,052
[Michael] Now the referee's back
in.
116
00:04:31,053 --> 00:04:32,350
Stephanie doesn't know what to
do.
117
00:04:32,351 --> 00:04:33,551
[Jerry] Has the match started?
118
00:04:33,552 --> 00:04:35,020
[Michael] Triple H telling her
to cover Jacqueline.
119
00:04:35,021 --> 00:04:35,620
[Jerry] Look.
120
00:04:35,621 --> 00:04:36,220
[Michael] Wait a minute.
121
00:04:36,221 --> 00:04:36,754
[Jerry] Look at this.
122
00:04:36,755 --> 00:04:37,388
[bell rings]
123
00:04:37,389 --> 00:04:38,522
[Michael] Come on now.
124
00:04:38,523 --> 00:04:41,233
[Road Dogg] She stepped into
frame, ready every time.
125
00:04:41,393 --> 00:04:43,827
There was never a learning curve
for her.
126

[Tony Chimel] -new Women's
Champion,
127
00:04:46,997 --> 00:04:49,566
Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley.
128
00:04:49,567 --> 00:04:52,668
[Stephanie] To be women's champ
when I didn't deserve it
129
00:04:52,669 --> 00:04:55,037
was like a big F
you to everybody.
130
00:04:56,238 --> 00:04:57,988
[Jerry] What an athlete,
Michael.
131
00:04:58,473 --> 00:05:00,273
?
132
00:05:00,274 --> 00:05:01,508
[Michael] Once a righteous young
woman,
133
00:05:01,509 --> 00:05:03,343
Stephanie quickly discovered she
had the taste
134
00:05:03,344 --> 00:05:04,712
for ultimate power.
135
00:05:05,413 --> 00:05:07,814
In 2016, alongside Triple H,
136
00:05:07,914 --> 00:05:10,749
ran roughshod in WWE
as The Authority,
137
00:05:10,750 --> 00:05:12,550
conquering all who opposed them.
138
00:05:12,551 --> 00:05:15,588
[Stephanie] Back up and get the
hell out of my ring.
139
00:05:15,589 --> 00:05:20,624
[Michael] The terrorizing tandem
would constantly put the drones
140
00:05:20,625 --> 00:05:21,993
below them in their places.
141
00:05:22,427 --> 00:05:25,661
There was no grander stage to do
that than at WrestleMania.
142
00:05:25,662 --> 00:05:28,230
{\an8}In front of the largest WWE
crowd ever,
143
00:05:28,231 --> 00:05:30,932
{\an8}Triple H was set to face off
against Roman Reigns
144
00:05:30,933 --> 00:05:33,034
{\an8}in the main event while Steph
was ready to address
145
00:05:33,035 --> 00:05:35,303
her subjects and remind them
146
00:05:35,304 --> 00:05:36,864
just who they were dealing with.
147
00:05:37,559 --> 00:05:43,009
{\an8}[Stephanie] Rise in the
presence of The Authority
148
00:05:43,010 --> 00:05:44,612
{\an8}and show your respect.
149
00:05:45,379 --> 00:05:48,047
I'm addressing this sea of
people.
150
00:05:48,648 --> 00:05:53,885
My job was to try to amplify a
heel presence around Triple H.
151
00:05:53,886 --> 00:05:58,289
You are merely the blind sheep
who follow.
152
00:05:58,290 --> 00:06:01,024
We are the absolute power.
153
00:06:01,025 --> 00:06:03,227
We own you.
154
00:06:03,228 --> 00:06:06,495
{\an8}[Joe Hendry] Stephanie McMahon
cuts this amazing promo
155

{\an8}where she captivates the entire
stadium.
156
00:06:09,733 --> 00:06:15,004
[Stephanie] Now bow down and
grovel at his feet.
157
00:06:15,005 --> 00:06:18,372
[Triple H] It was incredible and
something I could never forget.
158
00:06:18,373 --> 00:06:19,373
It just meant the world.
159
00:06:19,374 --> 00:06:24,611
[Stephanie] He is "The Game"
Triple H.

ed new stay
161
00:06:30,783 --> 00:06:33,051
{\an8}rose to prominence in WWE,
162
00:06:33,052 --> 00:06:34,753
but few possessed the sheer
talent
163
00:06:34,754 --> 00:06:37,656
held by Canada's greatest
export, Trish Stratus.
164
00:06:38,290 --> 00:06:41,525
[Stephanie] As far as the WWE is
concerned,
165
00:06:41,526 --> 00:06:44,828
I am the dominant female.
166
00:06:44,829 --> 00:06:46,796
[Jerry] Oh, my God.
167
00:06:46,797 --> 00:06:48,497
[Michael] Trish and Stephanie
going at it.
168
00:06:48,498 --> 00:06:51,233
With personalities too brash to
share the same locker room,
169
00:06:51,234 --> 00:06:54,368
Trish and Stephanie quickly made
enemies of each other.
170
00:06:54,369 --> 00:06:56,270
Constant attacks and brawls
171
00:06:56,271 --> 00:06:57,838
fueled the fire of
their rivalry.
172
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,808
[Trish] How about a shower?
173
00:06:59,809 --> 00:07:03,877
[Michael] At No Way Out 2001,
Steph would come face-to-face
174
00:07:03,878 --> 00:07:07,447
with Trish in her first-ever
premium live event match.
175
00:07:10,817 --> 00:07:12,017
[bell rings]
176
00:07:12,018 --> 00:07:13,117
{\an8}[Jerry] Oh, Trish wants to get
it on, and so does Stephanie.
177
00:07:13,118 --> 00:07:15,720
{\an8}[Trish] Stephanie McMahon
and I were finding out
178
00:07:15,721 --> 00:07:17,555
who was the most dominant
female in WWE.
179
00:07:17,556 --> 00:07:20,506
And that's a gold storyline that
people were connected to.
180
00:07:20,507 --> 00:07:23,560
{\an8}It took us on a journey to a
place where it culminated.
181
00:07:23,561 --> 00:07:25,728
[Jim] There's a lot of
hellacious action here
182
00:07:25,729 --> 00:07:27,830
for these two women who want
to destroy each other.
183
00:07:27,831 --> 00:07:30,365
[Stephanie] The buildup had been
so fun.
184
00:07:30,366 --> 00:07:33,235
{\an8}Who was this woman thinking she
was going to come in
185
00:07:33,236 --> 00:07:35,638
{\an8}and take over my business?
186
00:07:35,639 --> 00:07:37,771
[Jim] Stephanie came to fight,
no doubt about that.
187
00:07:37,772 --> 00:07:39,073
[Jerry] Oh, without a doubt.
188
00:07:39,074 --> 00:07:40,774
It shows you what it must mean
to be the dominant female
189
00:07:40,775 --> 00:07:42,275
in the McMahon family.
190
00:07:42,276 --> 00:07:44,143
{\an8}[Kevin Owens] They were both of
that point never
191
00:07:44,144 --> 00:07:45,712
{\an8}main characters themselves.
192
00:07:45,713 --> 00:07:48,123
This match was really just about
the two of them.
193
00:07:48,124 --> 00:07:49,448
[Jim] DDT.
194
00:07:49,449 --> 00:07:50,683
That's got to be it.
195
00:07:51,084 --> 00:07:52,417
Stephanie kicked out.
196
00:07:52,418 --> 00:07:54,085
[Trish] I don't know if people
expected much from us.
197
00:07:54,086 --> 00:07:56,153
But when we got in the ring, and
we pulled off what we did,
198
00:07:56,154 --> 00:07:57,856
people were like, "Oh, okay."
199
00:07:57,857 --> 00:07:59,523
[Jim] This has gone beyond
anything
200
00:07:59,524 --> 00:08:01,192
I ever dreamed it would be.
201
00:08:01,193 --> 00:08:02,592
[Stephanie] Everything hit.
202
00:08:02,593 --> 00:08:03,860
Like all of our spots,
203
00:08:03,861 --> 00:08:05,862
we hit all of the things
we wanted to do.
204
00:08:05,863 --> 00:08:08,033
The story that we told, it
actually worked.
205
00:08:08,231 --> 00:08:09,633
[Jim] There's a powerbomb.
206
00:08:10,233 --> 00:08:11,433
Stephanie got the cover.
207
00:08:11,434 --> 00:08:12,901
Will it be?
208
00:08:12,902 --> 00:08:13,535
[Jerry] Oh.
209
00:08:13,536 --> 00:08:14,202
[Jim] Yes, it is.
210
00:08:14,203 --> 00:08:15,136
[bell rings]
211
00:08:15,137 --> 00:08:16,437
[Stephanie] It was an incredible
experience,
212
00:08:16,438 --> 00:08:18,705
one I'm so grateful
for.
213
00:08:18,706 --> 00:08:20,341
And I'm so grateful for Trish.
214
00:08:21,643 --> 00:08:24,945
[Jim] Stephanie has proven that
she is the dominant female.
215
00:08:28,181 --> 00:08:30,882
[Michael] Being a figurehead in
WWE is no easy task,
216
00:08:30,883 --> 00:08:35,453
especially when superstars
are challenging authority.
217
00:08:35,454 --> 00:08:37,054
2014 saw Daniel Bryan
and Brie Bella
218
00:08:37,055 --> 00:08:39,525
do the unthinkable and
stand up to The Authority.
219
00:08:40,392 --> 00:08:41,925
[Brie Bella] You can't fire me.
220
00:08:41,926 --> 00:08:43,359
I quit.
221
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,364
[crowd yells]
222
00:08:47,365 --> 00:08:48,463
[Michael] Oh.
223
00:08:48,464 --> 00:08:49,731
[Jerry] Oh.
224
00:08:49,732 --> 00:08:52,768
[Michael] After quitting WWE,
Brie purchased a ticket
225
00:08:52,769 --> 00:08:54,879
and showed up to Raw as
an audience member.
226
00:08:55,504 --> 00:08:58,140
Naturally, this did not sit well
with Stephanie.
227
00:09:01,342 --> 00:09:04,879
{\an8}[Stephanie] Security,
eject this woman.
228
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,346
{\an8}[Brie] Stephanie sees me,
229
00:09:07,347 --> 00:09:09,515
{\an8}so she wants me thrown out
of the building.
230
00:09:09,516 --> 00:09:10,583
But I had a ticket.
231
00:09:10,584 --> 00:09:12,684
[Stephanie] I tell you what,
you're blocking the view
232
00:09:12,685 --> 00:09:14,352
of the people behind you.
233
00:09:14,353 --> 00:09:17,356
So, take your seat, Brie, or-
234
00:09:18,990 --> 00:09:20,920
[Brie] You're doing
this out of spite.
235
00:09:21,593 --> 00:09:26,696
You're doing this because I've
left my handprint on your face,
236
00:09:26,697 --> 00:09:30,432
and you are a vindictive bitch.
237
00:09:30,433 --> 00:09:32,534
[crowd yells]
238
00:09:32,535 --> 00:09:33,301
[Jerry] Oh.
239
00:09:33,302 --> 00:09:33,835
[Michael] Oh.
240
00:09:33,836 --> 00:09:34,886
Wow.
241
00:09:36,538 --> 00:09:38,673
[Stephanie] And I slap her.
242
00:09:39,107 --> 00:09:42,775
Well, little did I know, because
she's now no longer working
243
00:09:42,776 --> 00:09:45,778
for the company, she presses
charges against me.
244
00:09:45,779 --> 00:09:47,780
[Police officer] Under the state
of Florida, that's considered
245
00:09:47,781 --> 00:09:50,491
battery, and I'm gonna have to
arrest you for battery.
246
00:09:52,652 --> 00:09:54,418
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
247
00:09:54,419 --> 00:09:58,222
[yelling]
248
00:09:58,223 --> 00:10:00,824
[Stephanie] To actually get
cuffed and to get shoved
249
00:10:00,825 --> 00:10:03,694
in the back of a cop car, it
felt real enough to me.
250
00:10:03,695 --> 00:10:05,462
[Triple H] I will be right
behind you.
251
00:10:05,463 --> 00:10:06,929
I will be right behind you.
252
00:10:06,930 --> 00:10:08,163
Don't worry.
253
00:10:08,164 --> 00:10:10,994
[Stephanie] And they hauled me
straight to the station.
254
00:10:11,167 --> 00:10:13,167
Stet
255
00:10:13,168 --> 00:10:15,970
{\an8}and versatile demeanor molded
her into a force both
256
00:10:15,971 --> 00:10:17,372
in the ring and on
the microphone.
257
00:10:17,373 --> 00:10:21,109
[Stephanie] When it comes to
business, I'm the man.
258
00:10:21,110 --> 00:10:24,043
[Michael] And in 2002, when
SmackDown needed a commanding
259
00:10:24,044 --> 00:10:26,245
figurehead to take over the
show,
260
00:10:26,246 --> 00:10:28,215
the choice was a no-brainer.
261
00:10:28,608 --> 00:10:34,219
{\an8}[Vince McMahon] Allow me to
introduce you to the new
262
00:10:34,220 --> 00:10:40,425
{\an8}general manager of SmackDown,
Stephanie McMahon.
263
00:10:40,426 --> 00:10:42,559
[Stephanie] I was announced,
right,
264
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:44,370
as this SmackDown
general manager.
265
00:10:45,696 --> 00:10:50,667
Welcome to my show, SmackDown.
266
00:10:51,134 --> 00:10:52,836
And I lost my voice.
267
00:10:53,403 --> 00:10:54,802
I had laryngitis.
268
00:10:54,803 --> 00:10:57,153
{\an8}You got to rise to the occasion,
I guess.
269
00:10:57,154 --> 00:10:58,506
[Trish] I think it was important
to see a female
270
00:10:58,507 --> 00:10:59,806
in a strong position like that.
271
00:10:59,807 --> 00:11:03,276
{\an8}We had seen her be the most
dominant female in the WWE,
272
00:11:03,277 --> 00:11:05,312
{\an8}and now we were seeing
her as the most powerful
273
00:11:05,313 --> 00:11:06,580
female in the WWE.
274
00:11:06,581 --> 00:11:08,914
[Stephanie] I won't allow Eric
Bischoff
275
00:11:08,915 --> 00:11:13,518
to steal your SmackDown
superstars from you.
276
00:11:13,519 --> 00:11:15,353
Eric Bischoff was the general
manager of Raw,
277
00:11:15,354 --> 00:11:19,356
and we did have a whole, you
know, war between us.
278
00:11:19,357 --> 00:11:24,760
Bischoff, my first official act
as general manager of SmackDown
279
00:11:24,761 --> 00:11:27,930
is going to take place right now
280
00:11:27,931 --> 00:11:30,733
when I throw you the hell
out of my building.
281
00:11:30,734 --> 00:11:33,502
[Eric Bischoff] I really did
love working with Stephanie.
282
00:11:33,503 --> 00:11:38,540
{\an8}She's physical, she's smart,
she's intense.
283
00:11:38,874 --> 00:11:41,404
Those are all great attributes
for any performer.
284
00:11:41,942 --> 00:11:44,911
[Stephanie] Walk your little
self out of my building,
285
00:11:44,912 --> 00:11:48,248
or I will have you thrown out.
286
00:11:48,249 --> 00:11:51,516
Being the general manager was a
lot of fun.
287
00:11:51,517 --> 00:11:55,286
You make the matches, you
determine the stipulations.
288
00:11:55,287 --> 00:11:57,622
Hell in a Cell.
289
00:11:57,623 --> 00:11:59,090
Punish people if appropriate.
290
00:11:59,091 --> 00:12:01,858
You will suffer.
291
00:12:01,859 --> 00:12:04,995
Another privilege and
opportunity that I've had.
292
00:12:04,996 --> 00:12:06,763
It was awesome.
293
00:12:10,300 --> 00:12:13,835
You might have too much respect
for Ric, but I don't.
294
00:12:13,836 --> 00:12:15,070
[Jerry] Oh.
295
00:12:15,071 --> 00:12:16,871
[Michael] There's nothing quite
like a hard-hitting slap
296
00:12:16,872 --> 00:12:18,005
from Stephanie McMahon.
297
00:12:18,006 --> 00:12:19,373
[Jerry] Whoa.
298
00:12:19,374 --> 00:12:21,008
[Michael] A number of superstars
over the years
299
00:12:21,009 --> 00:12:22,643
have felt the infamous sting.
300
00:12:22,644 --> 00:12:24,478
[Jim] Oh, my God, what a shot.
301
00:12:25,345 --> 00:12:28,055
[Michael] And one more was on
deck at WrestleMania 31.
302
00:12:28,056 --> 00:12:30,682
Stephanie and Triple H were
demanding respect
303
00:12:30,683 --> 00:12:32,752
from the WWE Universe.
304
00:12:33,186 --> 00:12:37,322
[Stephanie] WWE wouldn't be
possible without me.
305
00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:41,691
[Michael] They were
unceremoniously interrupted.
306
00:12:41,692 --> 00:12:43,827
[The Rock's music plays]
307
00:12:43,828 --> 00:12:46,162
[Michael] Oh, my.
308
00:12:46,163 --> 00:12:47,298
The Rock is here.
309
00:12:47,299 --> 00:12:50,832
And the People's Champion would
soon find himself on the
310
00:12:50,833 --> 00:12:54,503
business end of perhaps the most
vicious slap of them all.
311
00:12:55,384 --> 00:13:00,340
{\an8}[The Rock] Well, just like The
Rock left his heart
312
00:13:00,341 --> 00:13:04,544
{\an8}in San Francisco, you, Triple H,
have clearly left your balls
313
00:13:04,545 --> 00:13:05,979
in Stanford, Connecticut.
314
00:13:05,980 --> 00:13:10,249
[Stephanie] Hang on, hang on a
second here, honey, just wait.
315
00:13:10,250 --> 00:13:12,951
{\an8}[Maria Menounos] Stephanie has
such an incredible presence.
316
00:13:12,952 --> 00:13:16,387
[Stephanie] The Rock knows that
without the McMahons,
317
00:13:16,388 --> 00:13:20,058
there would be no Rock.
318
00:13:21,426 --> 00:13:24,827
Rock comes out, which was a big
surprise for everybody.
319
00:13:24,828 --> 00:13:25,895
They were so excited.
320
00:13:25,896 --> 00:13:27,830
[The Rock] But the truth is, you
wouldn't be in power
321
00:13:27,831 --> 00:13:30,665
if it wasn't for Vince McMahon's
johnson.
322
00:13:30,666 --> 00:13:34,369
{\an8}[laughing]
323
00:13:34,370 --> 00:13:37,380
{\an8}To deliver a line like that, I
was laughing my ass off.
324
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,375
[Stephanie] Crass as always, I
mean-
325
00:13:41,543 --> 00:13:42,909
[Michael] Oh.
326
00:13:42,910 --> 00:13:44,043
[Corey Graves] Wow.
327
00:13:44,044 --> 00:13:46,346
{\an8}[Triple H] She's not afraid to
really slap
328
00:13:46,347 --> 00:13:47,967
{\an8}the [bleep] out of people.
329
00:13:48,781 --> 00:13:50,415
[Maria] Her slaps are brilliant.
330
00:13:50,416 --> 00:13:53,552
She just goes right-right for
it.
331
00:13:53,553 --> 00:13:55,219
[Chris Van Vliet] I was there
for that.
332
00:13:55,220 --> 00:13:56,780
I remember hearing that sound,
333
00:13:56,781 --> 00:13:59,623
{\an8}and I was way up in
the nosebleeds.
334
00:13:59,624 --> 00:14:04,662
[Stephanie] This is my ring, my
house, my people.
335
00:14:05,229 --> 00:14:07,463
Get to stepping, Dwayne.
336
00:14:07,464 --> 00:14:10,467
Get out.
337
00:14:12,448 --> 00:14:16,571
[Michael] Stephanie McMahon and
Brie Bella.
338
00:14:16,572 --> 00:14:20,407
Summer of 2014 saw this rivalry
getting very personal.
339
00:14:20,408 --> 00:14:22,876
After previously being arrested,
340
00:14:22,877 --> 00:14:26,512
Stephanie was eager to clear
the air with Brie Bella.
341
00:14:26,513 --> 00:14:30,015
[Stephanie] If I agree to give
you your job back,
342
00:14:30,016 --> 00:14:32,885
you'll agree to drop all
charges against me?
343
00:14:33,686 --> 00:14:34,853
[Brie] I agree.
344
00:14:34,854 --> 00:14:36,288
[Stephanie] Done deal.
345
00:14:36,822 --> 00:14:40,825
[Brie] Oh, wait, there's, um,
just one more thing I want.
346
00:14:42,193 --> 00:14:47,964
I want a match at SummerSlam
against you.
347
00:14:52,735 --> 00:14:55,236
{\an8}[Michael] This is as
personal as it gets.
348
00:14:55,237 --> 00:14:57,071
{\an8}For the first time
in over 10 years,
349
00:14:57,072 --> 00:14:59,122
{\an8}Stephanie McMahon's
in the ring.
350
00:14:59,123 --> 00:15:01,675
{\an8}[Brie] Working with someone like
Steph,
351
00:15:01,676 --> 00:15:02,776
who was born into this business-
352
00:15:02,777 --> 00:15:03,844
[bell rings]
353
00:15:03,845 --> 00:15:06,195
[Brie] -it was awesome to bring
the house down.
354
00:15:06,196 --> 00:15:08,914
[Stephanie] One of the coolest
moments is the audience started
355
00:15:08,915 --> 00:15:11,749
to chant, "You still got it."
356
00:15:11,750 --> 00:15:15,086
[crowd chants "You still got
it"]
357
00:15:15,087 --> 00:15:17,489
[Stephanie] Which is, like,
unbelievable.
358
00:15:17,507 --> 00:15:18,989
[Jerry] Oh.
359
00:15:18,990 --> 00:15:20,158
Oh, look out.
360
00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:21,325
[Michael] Oh, and Brie.
Thesz press on Stephanie.
361
00:15:21,326 --> 00:15:22,493
And Brie unloading.
362
00:15:22,494 --> 00:15:23,726
{\an8}[Natalya] With Stephanie and
Brie,
363
00:15:23,727 --> 00:15:24,961
{\an8}it wasn't so much about moves.
364
00:15:24,962 --> 00:15:26,522
It was more about storytelling.
365
00:15:27,798 --> 00:15:30,088
[Michael] And there's Nikki,
Brie's sister.
366
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,001
Uh-oh.
367
00:15:33,202 --> 00:15:34,822
Oh, Stephanie's had this coming.
368
00:15:35,037 --> 00:15:36,727
A long time coming for the
Bellas.
369
00:15:36,728 --> 00:15:38,072
[Jerry] Oh.
370
00:15:38,073 --> 00:15:39,140
[Michael] Oh.
371
00:15:39,141 --> 00:15:40,891
Nikki just knocked out her
sister.
372
00:15:40,892 --> 00:15:43,309
[Nikki Bella] The crowd just
went crazy, and I was like,
373
00:15:43,310 --> 00:15:45,879
{\an8}"Damn, this is good."
374
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,348
[John Layfield] Pedigree.
375
00:15:47,349 --> 00:15:49,081
[crowd yells "One, two, three"]
376
00:15:49,082 --> 00:15:50,315
[bell rings]
377
00:15:50,316 --> 00:15:52,184
[Stephanie] I always have to
have a trick up my sleeve.
378
00:15:52,185 --> 00:15:53,818
Come on, I'm Stephanie McMahon.
379
00:15:53,819 --> 00:15:54,953
I'm not gonna lose.
380
00:15:55,821 --> 00:15:58,531
[John] Stephanie leaving
victorious at SummerSlam.
381
00:15:59,429 --> 00:16:02,159
{\an8}behind the scenes,
[Mir
382
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,494
{\an8}Stephanie McMahon was always
looking to elevate WWE,
383
00:16:05,495 --> 00:16:07,965
{\an8}and specifically, the
women's division.
384
00:16:08,231 --> 00:16:11,367
So, when mixed martial arts
megastar "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey
385
00:16:11,368 --> 00:16:13,868
was ready to sign a WWE
contract,
386
00:16:13,869 --> 00:16:16,638
the landscape had
indeed changed.
387
00:16:16,639 --> 00:16:18,172
[Kurt Angle] They couldn't wait
to have you here,
388
00:16:18,173 --> 00:16:20,508
because they wanted
to manipulate you.
389
00:16:20,509 --> 00:16:22,576
[Michael] Rousey's known as a
trailblazer,
390
00:16:22,577 --> 00:16:24,944
someone who lives to challenge
the hierarchy,
391
00:16:24,945 --> 00:16:27,947
which is unfortunate if you're
Stephanie McMahon and Triple H.
392
00:16:27,948 --> 00:16:29,881
Oh, my God.
393
00:16:29,882 --> 00:16:31,951
She just buried the COO.
394
00:16:31,952 --> 00:16:36,187
This heated rivalry would come
to a head at the show of shows,
395
00:16:36,188 --> 00:16:39,356
WrestleMania 34, in a mixed tag
team match,
396
00:16:39,357 --> 00:16:41,825
featuring Ronda Rousey
and Kurt Angle
397
00:16:41,826 --> 00:16:44,261
taking on the powerful
Authority.
398
00:16:47,697 --> 00:16:51,334
{\an8}Now that's a WrestleMania
entrance.
399
00:16:51,868 --> 00:16:54,878
{\an8}[Stephanie] I finally had my
WrestleMania moment,
400
00:16:55,571 --> 00:16:58,740
{\an8}driving down the ramp in
front of all those people.
401
00:16:59,407 --> 00:17:01,909
[Corey] The true power couple of
WWE.
402
00:17:01,910 --> 00:17:05,312
[Stephanie] The spit, people
don't realize how hard that is.
403
00:17:05,313 --> 00:17:06,812
[Corey] Oh, look at this.
404
00:17:06,813 --> 00:17:09,315
[Michael] Stephanie McMahon
grabbing the hair of Rousey.
405
00:17:09,316 --> 00:17:13,819
This is actually her
WrestleMania in-ring debut.
406
00:17:13,820 --> 00:17:16,821
[Triple H] Steph has done a lot
of performing.
407
00:17:16,822 --> 00:17:19,472
{\an8}First match at WrestleMania,
75,000 people.
408
00:17:19,473 --> 00:17:22,125
And she's having a great time
doing all that stuff.
409
00:17:22,126 --> 00:17:24,560
[Corey] Oh, and she's mocking
Ronda Rousey.
410
00:17:24,561 --> 00:17:26,295
That's guts.
411
00:17:26,296 --> 00:17:27,630
[Ronda Rousey] She trusted me
and I trusted her,
412
00:17:27,631 --> 00:17:29,698
{\an8}and I think we created something
really,
413
00:17:29,699 --> 00:17:31,467
{\an8}really special that
night.
414
00:17:32,301 --> 00:17:35,191
[Michael] Oh, and Ronda stopped
Stephanie in her tracks.
415
00:17:35,904 --> 00:17:37,571
Armbar.
416
00:17:37,572 --> 00:17:40,107
[Corey] Ronda wants to tear
Stephanie's arm off.
417
00:17:40,108 --> 00:17:41,175
[Michael] Rousey positioning.
418
00:17:41,176 --> 00:17:42,475
Oh, my God.
419
00:17:42,476 --> 00:17:43,176
[bell rings]
420
00:17:43,177 --> 00:17:43,977
[Michael] Stephanie taps.
421
00:17:43,978 --> 00:17:45,478
Rousey may have broken her arm.
422
00:17:46,147 --> 00:17:49,882
[Stephanie] I'm just so grateful
to have had that opportunity,
423
00:17:49,883 --> 00:17:53,153
and to have the match, and to
help launch her career.
424
00:17:53,179 --> 00:17:58,256
[Michael] We have now
reached our number one moment,
425
00:17:58,257 --> 00:18:00,824
and quite frankly, one that had
been a long time coming.
426
00:18:00,825 --> 00:18:04,094
After years of entertaining the
WWE Universe,
427
00:18:04,095 --> 00:18:07,129
as well as innovating behind the
scenes within the company,
428
00:18:07,130 --> 00:18:10,099
Stephanie McMahon's
contributions to WWE
429
00:18:10,100 --> 00:18:11,766
were deservedly recognized
430
00:18:11,767 --> 00:18:14,770
as she received a surprising
invitation.
431
00:18:15,571 --> 00:18:20,174
[Undertaker] It is my honor to
induct you in the class
432
00:18:20,175 --> 00:18:24,878
of 2026 Hall of Fame.
433
00:18:24,879 --> 00:18:28,681
[Michael] Stephanie McMahon
would take her rightful place
434
00:18:28,682 --> 00:18:30,216
amongst the immortals.
435
00:18:30,217 --> 00:18:35,486
{\an8}[Stephanie's daughter] Tonight,
my sisters, grandmother,
436
00:18:35,487 --> 00:18:38,122
{\an8}and I are honored to induct
our mother into the WWE
437
00:18:38,123 --> 00:18:41,758
Class of 2026 Hall of Fame.
438
00:18:41,759 --> 00:18:45,228
[crowd chants "Thank you,
Stephanie"]
439
00:18:45,229 --> 00:18:46,669
[Stephanie] Thank all of you.
440
00:18:46,670 --> 00:18:48,997
[Natalya] The family is the
family that started
441
00:18:48,998 --> 00:18:50,499
{\an8}all of this for us.
442
00:18:50,500 --> 00:18:52,334
{\an8}I understand the weight that
that carries,
443
00:18:52,335 --> 00:18:54,869
{\an8}but she never let that
weigh her down.
444
00:18:54,870 --> 00:18:58,439
[Stephanie] I might not have
realized how differently I grew
445
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,642
up than everyone else, but one
thing was for certain,
446
00:19:02,643 --> 00:19:05,245
I loved everything
about our business.
447
00:19:05,246 --> 00:19:08,614
{\an8}[Cody Rhodes] Her contributions
and her legacy is lasting
448
00:19:08,615 --> 00:19:11,683
{\an8}because of the things she did
that maybe you didn't see.
449
00:19:11,684 --> 00:19:14,452
[Stephanie] I xeroxed, collated,
stuffed envelopes,
450
00:19:14,453 --> 00:19:15,953
and answered the switchboard.
451
00:19:15,954 --> 00:19:17,988
[Roman Reigns] She's earned
every bit of success
452
00:19:17,989 --> 00:19:19,057
that she's found.
453
00:19:19,058 --> 00:19:22,392
[Stephanie] Whether I was that
girl in the magazine or even
454
00:19:22,393 --> 00:19:26,529
briefly leading as chairwoman
and co-CEO,
455
00:19:26,530 --> 00:19:29,832
my entire life has been
lived through WWE.
456
00:19:30,766 --> 00:19:34,402
{\an8}[Undertaker] She's been a vital
player in growth of WWE
457
00:19:34,403 --> 00:19:36,771
{\an8}for decades.
458
00:19:36,772 --> 00:19:39,440
[Stephanie] Since we're here to
induct Stephanie McMahon,
459
00:19:39,441 --> 00:19:43,843
who was predominantly a heel, I
think it's only appropriate
460
00:19:43,844 --> 00:19:46,280
that we hear what she
would have to say.
461
00:19:47,914 --> 00:19:53,718
I recommend you get on your feet
and bask in my glory as I,
462
00:19:53,719 --> 00:19:56,487
Stephanie McMahon, am
immortalized
463
00:19:56,488 --> 00:20:02,093
in the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame.
464
00:20:02,750 --> 00:20:05,828
[WWE's Greatest Moments' music]
465
00:20:05,829 --> 00:20:06,996
[Michael] I can say without a
doubt in my mind
466
00:20:06,997 --> 00:20:08,564
that I would not be standing
here
467
00:20:08,565 --> 00:20:10,566
right now without Stephanie
McMahon.
468
00:20:10,567 --> 00:20:13,935
I was so proud to see her get
inducted into the WWE
469
00:20:13,936 --> 00:20:16,271
Hall of Fame, where she
has always belonged.
470
00:20:16,272 --> 00:20:18,439
Whether it was in the ring or
behind a desk,
471
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,041
Steph is one of the most
inspirational and trailblazing
472
00:20:21,042 --> 00:20:23,309
{\an8}women this industry
has ever seen.
473
00:20:23,310 --> 00:20:25,211
{\an8}Well, that'll do it for this
edition
474
00:20:25,212 --> 00:20:27,146
{\an8}of WWE's Greatest Moments.
475
00:20:27,147 --> 00:20:30,348
{\an8}I hope you've enjoyed this look
back at the best of the career-
476
00:20:30,349 --> 00:20:32,050
{\an8}[Corey] Oh, my God.
477
00:20:32,051 --> 00:20:33,268
{\an8}[Michael] -of Stephanie McMahon.
