1
00:00:01,125 --> 00:00:04,161
Bow down to
your queen.
2
00:00:04,395 --> 00:00:05,663
Me.
3
00:00:06,230 --> 00:00:08,798
When you think of
the most powerful women in WWE
4
00:00:08,798 --> 00:00:10,834
history, one name comes to mind.
5
00:00:10,834 --> 00:00:11,801
Stephanie McMahon.
6
00:00:12,968 --> 00:00:14,236
You think the world
owes you something.
7
00:00:14,236 --> 00:00:15,504
Well, guess what?
8
00:00:15,504 --> 00:00:19,040
Reality comes around, and it
slaps you right in the face.
9
00:00:19,474 --> 00:00:22,610
From a billion-dollar
princess to a corporate titan.
10
00:00:22,610 --> 00:00:25,045
I can do what I want
when I want.
11
00:00:25,045 --> 00:00:27,180
Whether settling
differences inside the ring
12
00:00:27,180 --> 00:00:31,217
or playing a crucial role in
shaping WWE behind the scenes,
13
00:00:31,217 --> 00:00:33,986
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 --> 00:00:39,190
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 --> 00:00:45,829
Today, we're looking
back at the remarkable career
18
00:00:45,829 --> 00:00:47,431
of Stephanie McMahon.
19
00:00:47,431 --> 00:00:50,433
This is WWE's Greatest Moments.
20
00:00:53,002 --> 00:00:54,636
If you smell-
21
00:00:54,636 --> 00:00:57,105
Oh, my God, what the
hell are you doing?
22
00:00:57,105 --> 00:00:59,875
Absolutely
unbelievable.
23
00:01:00,608 --> 00:01:02,576
Hulkamania is
here.
24
00:01:09,215 --> 00:01:11,785
{\an8}Welcome, everyone, to
WWE's Greatest Moments.
25
00:01:11,785 --> 00:01:14,019
{\an8}I'm Michael Cole, and
on this edition,
26
00:01:14,019 --> 00:01:16,789
{\an8}we're looking back at
the best of Stephanie McMahon.
27
00:01:20,258 --> 00:01:21,426
Having the McMahon
family lineage,
28
00:01:21,426 --> 00:01:23,728
Stephanie was born into the
business,
29
00:01:23,728 --> 00:01:26,196
but it wasn't until 1999 that
Stephanie McMahon
30
00:01:26,196 --> 00:01:29,132
started to appear on WWE
television.
31
00:01:30,466 --> 00:01:33,336
Introduced as the kind and
innocent daughter of the boss,
32
00:01:33,336 --> 00:01:36,272
Stephanie was caught in the
middle of her father's rivalry
33
00:01:36,272 --> 00:01:37,739
with Triple H.
34
00:01:37,739 --> 00:01:39,374
You keep coming up
with new ways to screw me,
35
00:01:39,374 --> 00:01:41,509
I'll keep coming up with
ways to go through it.
36
00:01:41,509 --> 00:01:43,177
Don't you worry.
37
00:01:43,177 --> 00:01:44,945
At Armageddon,
Stephanie McMahon would be
38
00:01:44,945 --> 00:01:48,248
forced to sit ringside to watch
her dad defend her honor in a
39
00:01:48,248 --> 00:01:51,751
match that would change the
professional and personal lives
40
00:01:51,751 --> 00:01:53,353
of Steph and The Game.
41
00:01:57,022 --> 00:01:59,157
{\an8}The time has come, no
holds barred.
42
00:02:00,125 --> 00:02:01,492
{\an8}Armageddon 1999.
43
00:02:01,492 --> 00:02:05,096
{\an8}It's this big match, my dad,
Vince McMahon, against Triple H,
44
00:02:05,096 --> 00:02:08,131
and he's beating the crap out of
my dad
45
00:02:08,131 --> 00:02:09,799
who's fighting for my honor.
46
00:02:09,966 --> 00:02:12,135
That's her father that's
getting punished here.
47
00:02:12,368 --> 00:02:14,036
{\an8}The match with Vince
and I,
48
00:02:14,036 --> 00:02:15,771
people sympathized with him,
49
00:02:15,771 --> 00:02:17,706
and you're doing horrible stuff
to him.
50
00:02:17,706 --> 00:02:19,207
Dad, get up.
51
00:02:19,674 --> 00:02:21,442
Don't let him do it.
52
00:02:21,442 --> 00:02:23,277
Oh, McMahon got a low blow in.
53
00:02:23,277 --> 00:02:26,246
There comes this
moment where finally my dad
54
00:02:26,246 --> 00:02:30,050
has the sledgehammer, and I say
to my dad, "Let me do it."
55
00:02:30,483 --> 00:02:31,651
She wants to hit
him.
56
00:02:31,651 --> 00:02:32,818
I think you're right.
57
00:02:32,818 --> 00:02:33,719
Hit him.
58
00:02:33,819 --> 00:02:35,254
And I just can't do
it.
59
00:02:35,254 --> 00:02:37,522
Stephanie didn't have the
heart to use the sledgehammer.
60
00:02:39,991 --> 00:02:41,326
God Almighty.
61
00:02:41,326 --> 00:02:42,493
And he pins my
father.
62
00:02:43,727 --> 00:02:45,296
I'm pouring my
heart out all over my dad.
63
00:02:45,296 --> 00:02:48,364
And then, at just the right
moment-
64
00:02:51,734 --> 00:02:52,702
I smile.
65
00:02:53,403 --> 00:02:55,537
For the love of God.
66
00:02:55,537 --> 00:02:59,241
{\an8}Seeing the sweet
Stephanie aligning with evil
67
00:02:59,241 --> 00:03:02,043
{\an8}Triple H was something nobody
saw coming.
68
00:03:02,043 --> 00:03:03,511
What is this?
69
00:03:03,511 --> 00:03:05,046
That's part of what
made it so great
70
00:03:05,046 --> 00:03:06,413
that nobody saw it coming.
71
00:03:06,413 --> 00:03:07,614
And nobody did.
72
00:03:08,682 --> 00:03:10,417
She's turned her back on
her father.
73
00:03:11,084 --> 00:03:12,184
And I've never
looked back.
74
00:03:16,121 --> 00:03:17,289
I don't believe this.
75
00:03:19,958 --> 00:03:22,126
After aligning herself
with her husband, Triple H,
76
00:03:22,126 --> 00:03:24,561
Stephanie would unleash a power
struggle within her family.
77
00:03:25,896 --> 00:03:27,164
Here's to a new era.
78
00:03:27,164 --> 00:03:28,999
The McMahon-Helmsley
era.
79
00:03:29,466 --> 00:03:31,233
Steph and The Game
would stop at nothing to keep
80
00:03:31,233 --> 00:03:32,368
control of WWE.
81
00:03:33,302 --> 00:03:36,204
And with DX in tow, the power
couple was unbeatable.
82
00:03:36,204 --> 00:03:38,773
Don't make me tell
you to shut up.
83
00:03:40,508 --> 00:03:42,276
Stephanie would find
herself in her first
84
00:03:42,276 --> 00:03:45,312
championship opportunity against
Women's Champion, Jacqueline,
85
00:03:45,312 --> 00:03:48,281
where she looked to add a piece
of gold to the queendom.
86
00:03:51,284 --> 00:03:52,919
{\an8}So, Stephanie
McMahon-Helmsley,
87
00:03:52,919 --> 00:03:55,153
{\an8}for the first time ever,
will step into the ring.
88
00:03:56,488 --> 00:03:58,690
I always wanted to
learn how to wrestle,
89
00:03:58,690 --> 00:04:01,993
and I had been training
for quite a while.
90
00:04:02,994 --> 00:04:03,995
Oh, no, he's starting
the match.
91
00:04:03,995 --> 00:04:04,762
And the referee rang
the bell.
92
00:04:04,762 --> 00:04:05,997
He started the match.
93
00:04:06,630 --> 00:04:07,764
Now, wait a minute.
94
00:04:07,764 --> 00:04:08,765
Hey, look out.
95
00:04:08,865 --> 00:04:10,033
Jacqueline going after
Stephanie.
96
00:04:10,367 --> 00:04:11,167
Oh, no, she's got her.
97
00:04:11,167 --> 00:04:12,234
She's got her.
98
00:04:12,368 --> 00:04:13,168
Jacqueline going after
Stephanie McMahon.
99
00:04:13,168 --> 00:04:14,003
Run away, run away.
100
00:04:14,003 --> 00:04:14,870
Hey.
101
00:04:14,870 --> 00:04:16,472
X-Pac from behind just tripped
her.
102
00:04:16,472 --> 00:04:19,073
{\an8}That doe-eyed young
girl,
103
00:04:19,073 --> 00:04:21,276
{\an8}she played it so perfectly.
104
00:04:21,276 --> 00:04:22,443
DDT.
105
00:04:22,443 --> 00:04:23,478
Oh.
106
00:04:23,478 --> 00:04:24,911
Tori just planted
Jacqueline.
107
00:04:24,911 --> 00:04:27,214
I don't know what to
do, and DX is telling me,
108
00:04:27,214 --> 00:04:27,948
"Cover her.
109
00:04:27,948 --> 00:04:29,182
Cover her."
110
00:04:29,182 --> 00:04:30,783
Now the referee's back
in.
111
00:04:31,284 --> 00:04:32,351
Stephanie doesn't know what to
do.
112
00:04:32,351 --> 00:04:33,552
Has the match started?
113
00:04:33,552 --> 00:04:35,021
Triple H telling her
to cover Jacqueline.
114
00:04:35,021 --> 00:04:35,621
Look.
115
00:04:35,621 --> 00:04:36,221
Wait a minute.
116
00:04:36,221 --> 00:04:36,755
Look at this.
117
00:04:37,389 --> 00:04:38,523
Come on now.
118
00:04:38,523 --> 00:04:40,592
She stepped into
frame, ready every time.
119
00:04:41,393 --> 00:04:43,827
There was never a learning curve
for her.
120
00:04:44,428 --> 00:04:46,997
new Women's
Champion,
121
00:04:46,997 --> 00:04:49,566
Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley.
122
00:04:50,333 --> 00:04:52,669
To be women's champ
when I didn't deserve it
123
00:04:52,669 --> 00:04:55,037
was like a big F
you to everybody.
124
00:04:56,238 --> 00:04:57,339
What an athlete,
Michael.
125
00:05:00,274 --> 00:05:01,509
Once a righteous young
woman,
126
00:05:01,509 --> 00:05:03,344
Stephanie quickly discovered she
had the taste
127
00:05:03,344 --> 00:05:04,712
for ultimate power.
128
00:05:05,413 --> 00:05:07,814
In 2016, alongside Triple H,
129
00:05:07,914 --> 00:05:10,750
ran roughshod in WWE
as The Authority,
130
00:05:10,750 --> 00:05:12,551
conquering all who opposed them.
131
00:05:12,551 --> 00:05:15,588
Back up and get the
hell out of my ring.
132
00:05:17,890 --> 00:05:20,625
The terrorizing tandem
would constantly put the drones
133
00:05:20,625 --> 00:05:21,993
below them in their places.
134
00:05:22,427 --> 00:05:25,662
There was no grander stage to do
that than at WrestleMania.
135
00:05:25,662 --> 00:05:28,231
{\an8}In front of the largest WWE
crowd ever,
136
00:05:28,231 --> 00:05:30,933
{\an8}Triple H was set to face off
against Roman Reigns
137
00:05:30,933 --> 00:05:33,035
{\an8}in the main event while Steph
was ready to address
138
00:05:33,035 --> 00:05:35,304
her subjects and remind them
139
00:05:35,304 --> 00:05:36,838
just who they were dealing with.
140
00:05:40,508 --> 00:05:43,010
{\an8}Rise in the
presence of The Authority
141
00:05:43,010 --> 00:05:44,612
{\an8}and show your respect.
142
00:05:45,379 --> 00:05:48,047
I'm addressing this sea of
people.
143
00:05:48,648 --> 00:05:53,886
My job was to try to amplify a
heel presence around Triple H.
144
00:05:53,886 --> 00:05:58,290
You are merely the blind sheep
who follow.
145
00:05:58,290 --> 00:06:01,025
We are the absolute power.
146
00:06:01,025 --> 00:06:03,227
We own you.
147
00:06:04,262 --> 00:06:06,496
{\an8}Stephanie McMahon
cuts this amazing promo
148
00:06:06,496 --> 00:06:08,732
{\an8}where she captivates the entire
stadium.
149
00:06:09,733 --> 00:06:15,004
Now bow down and
grovel at his feet.
150
00:06:15,905 --> 00:06:18,373
It was incredible and
something I could never forget.
151
00:06:18,373 --> 00:06:19,374
It just meant the world.
152
00:06:19,374 --> 00:06:24,611
He is "The Game"
Triple H.
153
00:06:28,215 --> 00:06:30,783
ed new stay
154
00:06:30,783 --> 00:06:33,052
{\an8}rose to prominence in WWE,
155
00:06:33,052 --> 00:06:34,754
but few possessed the sheer
talent
156
00:06:34,754 --> 00:06:37,656
held by Canada's greatest
export, Trish Stratus.
157
00:06:38,290 --> 00:06:41,526
As far as the WWE is
concerned,
158
00:06:41,526 --> 00:06:44,828
I am the dominant female.
159
00:06:45,763 --> 00:06:46,797
Oh, my God.
160
00:06:46,797 --> 00:06:48,498
Trish and Stephanie
going at it.
161
00:06:48,498 --> 00:06:51,234
With personalities too brash to
share the same locker room,
162
00:06:51,234 --> 00:06:54,369
Trish and Stephanie quickly made
enemies of each other.
163
00:06:54,369 --> 00:06:56,271
Constant attacks and brawls
164
00:06:56,271 --> 00:06:57,839
fueled the fire of
their rivalry.
165
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,808
How about a shower?
166
00:07:00,841 --> 00:07:03,878
At No Way Out 2001,
Steph would come face-to-face
167
00:07:03,878 --> 00:07:07,447
with Trish in her first-ever
premium live event match.
168
00:07:12,117 --> 00:07:13,118
{\an8}Oh, Trish wants to get
it on, and so does Stephanie.
169
00:07:13,118 --> 00:07:15,721
{\an8}Stephanie McMahon
and I were finding out
170
00:07:15,721 --> 00:07:17,556
who was the most dominant
female in WWE.
171
00:07:17,556 --> 00:07:20,091
And that's a gold storyline that
people were connected to.
172
00:07:20,925 --> 00:07:23,561
{\an8}It took us on a journey to a
place where it culminated.
173
00:07:23,561 --> 00:07:25,729
There's a lot of
hellacious action here
174
00:07:25,729 --> 00:07:27,831
for these two women who want
to destroy each other.
175
00:07:27,831 --> 00:07:30,366
The buildup had been
so fun.
176
00:07:30,366 --> 00:07:33,236
{\an8}Who was this woman thinking she
was going to come in
177
00:07:33,236 --> 00:07:35,638
{\an8}and take over my business?
178
00:07:36,271 --> 00:07:37,772
Stephanie came to fight,
no doubt about that.
179
00:07:37,772 --> 00:07:39,074
Oh, without a doubt.
180
00:07:39,074 --> 00:07:40,775
It shows you what it must mean
to be the dominant female
181
00:07:40,775 --> 00:07:42,276
in the McMahon family.
182
00:07:42,276 --> 00:07:44,144
{\an8}They were both of
that point never
183
00:07:44,144 --> 00:07:45,713
{\an8}main characters themselves.
184
00:07:45,713 --> 00:07:48,047
This match was really just about
the two of them.
185
00:07:48,481 --> 00:07:49,449
DDT.
186
00:07:49,449 --> 00:07:50,683
That's got to be it.
187
00:07:51,084 --> 00:07:52,418
Stephanie kicked out.
188
00:07:52,418 --> 00:07:54,086
I don't know if people
expected much from us.
189
00:07:54,086 --> 00:07:56,154
But when we got in the ring, and
we pulled off what we did,
190
00:07:56,154 --> 00:07:57,856
people were like, "Oh, okay."
191
00:07:58,223 --> 00:07:59,524
This has gone beyond
anything
192
00:07:59,524 --> 00:08:01,192
I ever dreamed it would be.
193
00:08:01,659 --> 00:08:02,593
Everything hit.
194
00:08:02,593 --> 00:08:03,861
Like all of our spots,
195
00:08:03,861 --> 00:08:05,863
we hit all of the things
we wanted to do.
196
00:08:05,863 --> 00:08:07,364
The story that we told, it
actually worked.
197
00:08:08,231 --> 00:08:09,633
There's a powerbomb.
198
00:08:10,233 --> 00:08:11,368
Stephanie got the cover.
199
00:08:12,001 --> 00:08:12,902
Will it be?
200
00:08:12,902 --> 00:08:13,536
Oh.
201
00:08:13,536 --> 00:08:14,203
Yes, it is.
202
00:08:15,137 --> 00:08:16,438
It was an incredible
experience,
203
00:08:16,438 --> 00:08:18,706
one I'm so grateful
for.
204
00:08:18,706 --> 00:08:20,341
And I'm so grateful for Trish.
205
00:08:21,643 --> 00:08:24,945
Stephanie has proven that
she is the dominant female.
206
00:08:28,181 --> 00:08:30,883
Being a figurehead in
WWE is no easy task,
207
00:08:30,883 --> 00:08:35,454
especially when superstars
are challenging authority.
208
00:08:35,454 --> 00:08:37,055
2014 saw Daniel Bryan
and Brie Bella
209
00:08:37,055 --> 00:08:39,224
do the unthinkable and
stand up to The Authority.
210
00:08:40,392 --> 00:08:41,926
You can't fire me.
211
00:08:41,926 --> 00:08:43,360
I quit.
212
00:08:47,831 --> 00:08:48,464
Oh.
213
00:08:48,464 --> 00:08:49,732
Oh.
214
00:08:49,732 --> 00:08:52,769
After quitting WWE,
Brie purchased a ticket
215
00:08:52,769 --> 00:08:54,870
and showed up to Raw as
an audience member.
216
00:08:55,504 --> 00:08:58,140
Naturally, this did not sit well
with Stephanie.
217
00:09:01,342 --> 00:09:04,879
{\an8}Security,
eject this woman.
218
00:09:05,713 --> 00:09:07,347
{\an8}Stephanie sees me,
219
00:09:07,347 --> 00:09:09,516
{\an8}so she wants me thrown out
of the building.
220
00:09:09,516 --> 00:09:10,584
But I had a ticket.
221
00:09:10,584 --> 00:09:12,685
I tell you what,
you're blocking the view
222
00:09:12,685 --> 00:09:14,353
of the people behind you.
223
00:09:14,353 --> 00:09:17,356
So, take your seat, Brie, or--
224
00:09:18,990 --> 00:09:20,825
You're doing
this out of spite.
225
00:09:21,593 --> 00:09:26,697
You're doing this because I've
left my handprint on your face,
226
00:09:26,697 --> 00:09:30,433
and you are a vindictive bitch.
227
00:09:32,535 --> 00:09:33,302
Oh.
228
00:09:33,302 --> 00:09:33,836
Oh.
229
00:09:33,836 --> 00:09:34,870
Wow.
230
00:09:36,538 --> 00:09:38,673
And I slap her.
231
00:09:39,107 --> 00:09:42,776
Well, little did I know, because
she's now no longer working
232
00:09:42,776 --> 00:09:45,779
for the company, she presses
charges against me.
233
00:09:45,779 --> 00:09:47,781
Under the state
of Florida, that's considered
234
00:09:47,781 --> 00:09:49,749
battery, and I'm gonna have to
arrest you for battery.
235
00:09:52,652 --> 00:09:54,419
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
236
00:09:58,223 --> 00:10:00,825
To actually get
cuffed and to get shoved
237
00:10:00,825 --> 00:10:03,694
in the back of a cop car, it
felt real enough to me.
238
00:10:04,495 --> 00:10:05,463
I will be right
behind you.
239
00:10:05,463 --> 00:10:06,930
I will be right behind you.
240
00:10:06,930 --> 00:10:08,164
Don't worry.
241
00:10:08,164 --> 00:10:09,266
And they hauled me
straight to the station.
242
00:10:11,167 --> 00:10:13,168
Stet
243
00:10:13,168 --> 00:10:15,971
{\an8}and versatile demeanor molded
her into a force both
244
00:10:15,971 --> 00:10:17,373
in the ring and on
the microphone.
245
00:10:17,373 --> 00:10:21,109
When it comes to
business, I'm the man.
246
00:10:22,243 --> 00:10:24,044
And in 2002, when
SmackDown needed a commanding
247
00:10:24,044 --> 00:10:26,246
figurehead to take over the
show,
248
00:10:26,246 --> 00:10:28,215
the choice was a no-brainer.
249
00:10:31,617 --> 00:10:34,120
{\an8}Allow me to
introduce you to the new
250
00:10:34,220 --> 00:10:40,425
{\an8}general manager of SmackDown,
Stephanie McMahon.
251
00:10:41,526 --> 00:10:42,560
I was announced,
right,
252
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:44,128
as this SmackDown
general manager.
253
00:10:45,696 --> 00:10:50,667
Welcome to my show, SmackDown.
254
00:10:51,134 --> 00:10:52,836
And I lost my voice.
255
00:10:53,403 --> 00:10:54,803
I had laryngitis.
256
00:10:54,803 --> 00:10:56,405
{\an8}You got to rise to the occasion,
I guess.
257
00:10:57,239 --> 00:10:58,507
I think it was important
to see a female
258
00:10:58,507 --> 00:10:59,807
in a strong position like that.
259
00:10:59,807 --> 00:11:03,277
{\an8}We had seen her be the most
dominant female in the WWE,
260
00:11:03,277 --> 00:11:05,313
{\an8}and now we were seeing
her as the most powerful
261
00:11:05,313 --> 00:11:06,580
female in the WWE.
262
00:11:07,214 --> 00:11:08,915
I won't allow Eric
Bischoff
263
00:11:08,915 --> 00:11:13,519
to steal your SmackDown
superstars from you.
264
00:11:13,519 --> 00:11:15,354
Eric Bischoff was the general
manager of Raw,
265
00:11:15,354 --> 00:11:19,357
and we did have a whole, you
know, war between us.
266
00:11:19,357 --> 00:11:24,761
Bischoff, my first official act
as general manager of SmackDown
267
00:11:24,761 --> 00:11:27,931
is going to take place right now
268
00:11:27,931 --> 00:11:30,733
when I throw you the hell
out of my building.
269
00:11:31,701 --> 00:11:33,503
I really did
love working with Stephanie.
270
00:11:33,503 --> 00:11:38,540
{\an8}She's physical, she's smart,
she's intense.
271
00:11:38,874 --> 00:11:41,176
Those are all great attributes
for any performer.
272
00:11:41,942 --> 00:11:44,912
Walk your little
self out of my building,
273
00:11:44,912 --> 00:11:48,248
or I will have you thrown out.
274
00:11:49,782 --> 00:11:51,517
Being the general manager was a
lot of fun.
275
00:11:51,517 --> 00:11:55,287
You make the matches, you
determine the stipulations.
276
00:11:55,287 --> 00:11:57,623
Hell in a Cell.
277
00:11:57,623 --> 00:11:59,091
Punish people if appropriate.
278
00:11:59,091 --> 00:12:01,859
You will suffer.
279
00:12:01,859 --> 00:12:04,996
Another privilege and
opportunity that I've had.
280
00:12:04,996 --> 00:12:06,763
It was awesome.
281
00:12:10,300 --> 00:12:13,836
You might have too much respect
for Ric, but I don't.
282
00:12:13,836 --> 00:12:15,070
Oh.
283
00:12:15,170 --> 00:12:16,872
There's nothing quite
like a hard-hitting slap
284
00:12:16,872 --> 00:12:18,006
from Stephanie McMahon.
285
00:12:18,006 --> 00:12:19,374
Whoa.
286
00:12:19,374 --> 00:12:21,009
A number of superstars
over the years
287
00:12:21,009 --> 00:12:22,644
have felt the infamous sting.
288
00:12:22,644 --> 00:12:24,478
Oh, my God, what a shot.
289
00:12:25,345 --> 00:12:27,614
And one more was on
deck at WrestleMania 31.
290
00:12:28,315 --> 00:12:30,683
Stephanie and Triple H were
demanding respect
291
00:12:30,683 --> 00:12:32,752
from the WWE Universe.
292
00:12:33,186 --> 00:12:37,322
WWE wouldn't be
possible without me.
293
00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:41,692
They were
unceremoniously interrupted.
294
00:12:43,828 --> 00:12:46,163
Oh, my.
295
00:12:46,163 --> 00:12:47,298
The Rock is here.
296
00:12:48,231 --> 00:12:50,833
And the People's Champion would
soon find himself on the
297
00:12:50,833 --> 00:12:54,503
business end of perhaps the most
vicious slap of them all.
298
00:12:58,273 --> 00:13:00,341
{\an8}Well, just like The
Rock left his heart
299
00:13:00,341 --> 00:13:04,545
{\an8}in San Francisco, you, Triple H,
have clearly left your balls
300
00:13:04,545 --> 00:13:05,979
in Stanford, Connecticut.
301
00:13:07,981 --> 00:13:09,449
Hang on, hang on a
second here, honey, just wait.
302
00:13:10,250 --> 00:13:12,952
{\an8}Stephanie has
such an incredible presence.
303
00:13:12,952 --> 00:13:16,388
The Rock knows that
without the McMahons,
304
00:13:16,388 --> 00:13:20,058
there would be no Rock.
305
00:13:21,426 --> 00:13:24,828
Rock comes out, which was a big
surprise for everybody.
306
00:13:24,828 --> 00:13:25,896
They were so excited.
307
00:13:25,896 --> 00:13:27,831
But the truth is, you
wouldn't be in power
308
00:13:27,831 --> 00:13:30,666
if it wasn't for Vince McMahon's
johnson.
309
00:13:34,370 --> 00:13:37,038
{\an8}To deliver a line like that, I
was laughing my ass off.
310
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,375
Crass as always, I
mean--
311
00:13:41,543 --> 00:13:42,910
Oh.
312
00:13:42,910 --> 00:13:44,044
Wow.
313
00:13:44,044 --> 00:13:46,247
{\an8}She's not afraid to
really slap
314
00:13:46,347 --> 00:13:47,547
{\an8}the out of people.
315
00:13:48,781 --> 00:13:50,416
Her slaps are brilliant.
316
00:13:50,416 --> 00:13:53,552
She just goes right-right for
it.
317
00:13:54,286 --> 00:13:55,220
I was there
for that.
318
00:13:55,220 --> 00:13:56,388
I remember hearing that sound,
319
00:13:57,789 --> 00:13:58,857
{\an8}and I was way up in
the nosebleeds.
320
00:13:59,624 --> 00:14:04,662
This is my ring, my
house, my people.
321
00:14:05,229 --> 00:14:07,464
Get to stepping, Dwayne.
322
00:14:07,464 --> 00:14:10,467
Get out.
323
00:14:14,737 --> 00:14:16,572
Stephanie McMahon and
Brie Bella.
324
00:14:16,572 --> 00:14:20,408
Summer of 2014 saw this rivalry
getting very personal.
325
00:14:20,408 --> 00:14:22,877
After previously being arrested,
326
00:14:22,877 --> 00:14:26,513
Stephanie was eager to clear
the air with Brie Bella.
327
00:14:26,513 --> 00:14:30,016
If I agree to give
you your job back,
328
00:14:30,016 --> 00:14:32,885
you'll agree to drop all
charges against me?
329
00:14:33,686 --> 00:14:34,854
I agree.
330
00:14:34,854 --> 00:14:36,288
Done deal.
331
00:14:36,822 --> 00:14:40,825
Oh, wait, there's, um,
just one more thing I want.
332
00:14:42,193 --> 00:14:47,964
I want a match at SummerSlam
against you.
333
00:14:52,735 --> 00:14:55,237
{\an8}This is as
personal as it gets.
334
00:14:55,237 --> 00:14:57,072
{\an8}For the first time
in over 10 years,
335
00:14:57,072 --> 00:14:58,974
{\an8}Stephanie McMahon's
in the ring.
336
00:14:59,974 --> 00:15:01,676
{\an8}Working with someone like
Steph,
337
00:15:01,676 --> 00:15:02,777
who was born into this business-
338
00:15:03,845 --> 00:15:05,745
it was awesome to bring
the house down.
339
00:15:06,613 --> 00:15:08,915
One of the coolest
moments is the audience started
340
00:15:08,915 --> 00:15:11,750
to chant, "You still got it."
341
00:15:15,087 --> 00:15:17,489
Which is, like,
unbelievable.
342
00:15:18,556 --> 00:15:18,990
Oh.
343
00:15:18,990 --> 00:15:20,158
Oh, look out.
344
00:15:20,258 --> 00:15:21,326
Oh, and Brie.
Thesz press on Stephanie.
345
00:15:21,326 --> 00:15:22,494
And Brie unloading.
346
00:15:22,494 --> 00:15:23,727
{\an8}With Stephanie and
Brie,
347
00:15:23,727 --> 00:15:24,962
{\an8}it wasn't so much about moves.
348
00:15:24,962 --> 00:15:26,463
It was more about storytelling.
349
00:15:27,798 --> 00:15:29,433
And there's Nikki,
Brie's sister.
350
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,001
Uh-oh.
351
00:15:33,202 --> 00:15:34,604
Oh, Stephanie's had this coming.
352
00:15:35,037 --> 00:15:36,471
A long time coming for the
Bellas.
353
00:15:37,506 --> 00:15:38,073
Oh.
354
00:15:38,073 --> 00:15:39,141
Oh.
355
00:15:39,141 --> 00:15:40,375
Nikki just knocked out her
sister.
356
00:15:41,609 --> 00:15:43,310
The crowd just
went crazy, and I was like,
357
00:15:43,310 --> 00:15:45,880
{\an8}"Damn, this is good."
358
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,348
Pedigree.
359
00:15:50,316 --> 00:15:52,185
I always have to
have a trick up my sleeve.
360
00:15:52,185 --> 00:15:53,819
Come on, I'm Stephanie McMahon.
361
00:15:53,819 --> 00:15:54,953
I'm not gonna lose.
362
00:15:55,821 --> 00:15:58,490
Stephanie leaving
victorious at SummerSlam.
363
00:16:01,058 --> 00:16:02,160
{\an8}behind the scenes,
[Mir
364
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,495
{\an8}Stephanie McMahon was always
looking to elevate WWE,
365
00:16:05,495 --> 00:16:07,197
{\an8}and specifically, the
women's division.
366
00:16:08,231 --> 00:16:11,368
So, when mixed martial arts
megastar "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey
367
00:16:11,368 --> 00:16:13,869
was ready to sign a WWE
contract,
368
00:16:13,869 --> 00:16:16,639
the landscape had
indeed changed.
369
00:16:16,639 --> 00:16:18,173
They couldn't wait
to have you here,
370
00:16:18,173 --> 00:16:20,508
because they wanted
to manipulate you.
371
00:16:21,109 --> 00:16:22,577
Rousey's known as a
trailblazer,
372
00:16:22,577 --> 00:16:24,945
someone who lives to challenge
the hierarchy,
373
00:16:24,945 --> 00:16:27,948
which is unfortunate if you're
Stephanie McMahon and Triple H.
374
00:16:27,948 --> 00:16:29,882
Oh, my God.
375
00:16:29,882 --> 00:16:31,951
She just buried the COO.
376
00:16:33,252 --> 00:16:36,188
This heated rivalry would come
to a head at the show of shows,
377
00:16:36,188 --> 00:16:39,357
WrestleMania 34, in a mixed tag
team match,
378
00:16:39,357 --> 00:16:41,826
featuring Ronda Rousey
and Kurt Angle
379
00:16:41,826 --> 00:16:44,261
taking on the powerful
Authority.
380
00:16:47,697 --> 00:16:51,334
{\an8}Now that's a WrestleMania
entrance.
381
00:16:51,868 --> 00:16:54,436
{\an8}I finally had my
WrestleMania moment,
382
00:16:55,571 --> 00:16:58,740
{\an8}driving down the ramp in
front of all those people.
383
00:16:59,407 --> 00:17:01,909
The true power couple of
WWE.
384
00:17:02,944 --> 00:17:05,313
The spit, people
don't realize how hard that is.
385
00:17:05,313 --> 00:17:06,813
Oh, look at this.
386
00:17:06,813 --> 00:17:09,316
Stephanie McMahon
grabbing the hair of Rousey.
387
00:17:09,316 --> 00:17:13,819
This is actually her
WrestleMania in-ring debut.
388
00:17:14,687 --> 00:17:16,822
Steph has done a lot
of performing.
389
00:17:16,822 --> 00:17:18,990
{\an8}First match at WrestleMania,
75,000 people.
390
00:17:19,891 --> 00:17:21,392
And she's having a great time
doing all that stuff.
391
00:17:22,126 --> 00:17:24,561
Oh, and she's mocking
Ronda Rousey.
392
00:17:24,561 --> 00:17:26,296
That's guts.
393
00:17:26,296 --> 00:17:27,631
She trusted me
and I trusted her,
394
00:17:27,631 --> 00:17:29,699
{\an8}and I think we created something
really,
395
00:17:29,699 --> 00:17:31,467
{\an8}really special that
night.
396
00:17:32,301 --> 00:17:34,904
Oh, and Ronda stopped
Stephanie in her tracks.
397
00:17:35,904 --> 00:17:37,572
Armbar.
398
00:17:37,572 --> 00:17:40,108
Ronda wants to tear
Stephanie's arm off.
399
00:17:40,108 --> 00:17:41,176
Rousey positioning.
400
00:17:41,176 --> 00:17:42,476
Oh, my God.
401
00:17:43,177 --> 00:17:43,978
Stephanie taps.
402
00:17:43,978 --> 00:17:45,246
Rousey may have broken her arm.
403
00:17:46,147 --> 00:17:49,883
I'm just so grateful
to have had that opportunity,
404
00:17:49,883 --> 00:17:53,153
and to have the match, and to
help launch her career.
405
00:17:55,888 --> 00:17:58,257
We have now
reached our number one moment,
406
00:17:58,257 --> 00:18:00,825
and quite frankly, one that had
been a long time coming.
407
00:18:00,825 --> 00:18:04,095
After years of entertaining the
WWE Universe,
408
00:18:04,095 --> 00:18:07,130
as well as innovating behind the
scenes within the company,
409
00:18:07,130 --> 00:18:10,100
Stephanie McMahon's
contributions to WWE
410
00:18:10,100 --> 00:18:11,767
were deservedly recognized
411
00:18:11,767 --> 00:18:14,770
as she received a surprising
invitation.
412
00:18:15,571 --> 00:18:20,175
It is my honor to
induct you in the class
413
00:18:20,175 --> 00:18:24,878
of 2026 Hall of Fame.
414
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,682
Stephanie McMahon
would take her rightful place
415
00:18:28,682 --> 00:18:30,216
amongst the immortals.
416
00:18:33,319 --> 00:18:35,487
{\an8}Tonight,
my sisters, grandmother,
417
00:18:35,487 --> 00:18:38,123
{\an8}and I are honored to induct
our mother into the WWE
418
00:18:38,123 --> 00:18:41,759
Class of 2026 Hall of Fame.
419
00:18:45,229 --> 00:18:46,363
Thank all of you.
420
00:18:47,497 --> 00:18:48,998
The family is the
family that started
421
00:18:48,998 --> 00:18:50,500
{\an8}all of this for us.
422
00:18:50,500 --> 00:18:52,335
{\an8}I understand the weight that
that carries,
423
00:18:52,335 --> 00:18:54,870
{\an8}but she never let that
weigh her down.
424
00:18:54,870 --> 00:18:58,440
I might not have
realized how differently I grew
425
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,643
up than everyone else, but one
thing was for certain,
426
00:19:02,643 --> 00:19:05,245
I loved everything
about our business.
427
00:19:06,079 --> 00:19:08,615
{\an8}Her contributions
and her legacy is lasting
428
00:19:08,615 --> 00:19:11,051
{\an8}because of the things she did
that maybe you didn't see.
429
00:19:11,684 --> 00:19:14,453
I xeroxed, collated,
stuffed envelopes,
430
00:19:14,453 --> 00:19:15,755
and answered the switchboard.
431
00:19:16,489 --> 00:19:17,989
She's earned
every bit of success
432
00:19:17,989 --> 00:19:19,057
that she's found.
433
00:19:20,325 --> 00:19:22,393
Whether I was that
girl in the magazine or even
434
00:19:22,393 --> 00:19:26,530
briefly leading as chairwoman
and co-CEO,
435
00:19:26,530 --> 00:19:29,832
my entire life has been
lived through WWE.
436
00:19:30,766 --> 00:19:34,403
{\an8}She's been a vital
player in growth of WWE
437
00:19:34,403 --> 00:19:36,772
{\an8}for decades.
438
00:19:36,772 --> 00:19:39,441
Since we're here to
induct Stephanie McMahon,
439
00:19:39,441 --> 00:19:43,844
who was predominantly a heel, I
think it's only appropriate
440
00:19:43,844 --> 00:19:46,280
that we hear what she
would have to say.
441
00:19:47,914 --> 00:19:53,719
I recommend you get on your feet
and bask in my glory as I,
442
00:19:53,719 --> 00:19:56,488
Stephanie McMahon, am
immortalized
443
00:19:56,488 --> 00:20:02,093
in the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame.
444
00:20:05,829 --> 00:20:06,997
I can say without a
doubt in my mind
445
00:20:06,997 --> 00:20:08,565
that I would not be standing
here
446
00:20:08,565 --> 00:20:10,567
right now without Stephanie
McMahon.
447
00:20:10,567 --> 00:20:13,936
I was so proud to see her get
inducted into the WWE
448
00:20:13,936 --> 00:20:16,272
Hall of Fame, where she
has always belonged.
449
00:20:16,272 --> 00:20:18,440
Whether it was in the ring or
behind a desk,
450
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,042
Steph is one of the most
inspirational and trailblazing
451
00:20:21,042 --> 00:20:23,310
{\an8}women this industry
has ever seen.
452
00:20:23,310 --> 00:20:25,212
{\an8}Well, that'll do it for this
edition
453
00:20:25,212 --> 00:20:27,147
{\an8}of WWE's Greatest Moments.
454
00:20:27,147 --> 00:20:30,349
{\an8}I hope you've enjoyed this look
back at the best of the career-
455
00:20:30,349 --> 00:20:32,051
{\an8}Oh, my God.
456
00:20:32,051 --> 00:20:33,219
{\an8}of Stephanie McMahon.
