WWE Wrestlepalooza Results: First Inductee In 2026 WWE Hall of Fame Announced

The announcement was made by The Undertaker at Wrestlepalooza. I assumed when Taker made his entrance, he was there to announce the attendance.

The segment was awkward — for the crowd and McMahon — until Taker revealed what he was there for.

As an on-screen personality, Stephanie was a fixture of The Attitude Era, making her way on screen as the love interest of Test, then wife and manager of Triple H. During the early part of The Ruthless Aggression era, she served as the SmackDown General Manager, even facing her father Vince McMahon in an I Quit Match.

Behind the scenes, McMahon worked her way up through various backstage roles, from the creative team to Chief Brand Officer to Chief Executive Officer.

Stephanie has been credited as an integral part of the WWE Women's Revolution, using her influence as an executive to change the landscape of women's wrestling.

Since leaving WWE as an executive, McMahon has remained connected to the company, serving as an ambassador and partnering for her ESPN show Stephanie's Places and Fanatics podcast What's Your Story? with Steph McMahon.

Given Stephanie's history in the company, she could easily be the headliner for next year's class.

Fans will weigh in on social media with who else they want to see in next year's class — and if they think Stephanie should headline.
