WWE WrestleMania XL brought back Stephanie McMahon, sparking discussions about her role within the company. Recent updates shed light on her current status.
Stephanie stepped away from her role as WWE Chairwoman and co-CEO in January 2023 due to her father’s resurgence in the company.
Now, with Vince McMahon out of the picture, Stephanie made her TV comeback last week. She graced the Hall of Fame ceremony, alongside Triple H, marking her re-entry into the spotlight.
Additionally, Stephanie delivered an opening promo on Night Two of WrestleMania XL, following her husband’s lead from the previous night.
While WWE distances itself from Vince, there are no plans to distance from Stephanie, according to reports from Fightful Select. Her return was well-received within the company, with many welcoming her back warmly at the event.
Despite her promo being kept under wraps, it was smoothly integrated into the program, listed as a segment featuring Triple H.
Sources within WWE affirm their support for Stephanie amid recent developments.
Although there’s no indication of her returning in a full-time capacity, several individuals within the company have expressed their openness to her return.
Regarding concerns over her involvement after being named in a lawsuit against the company, WWE sources mention that Stephanie’s response to the allegations remains undisclosed.
However, her recent appearance at WrestleMania XL is seen as a public declaration of her stance on the matter.
Triple H, Stephanie’s husband, shared a backstage photo with her from WrestleMania Night Two, affirming their unity.
His subsequent comments during the post-event press conference further underscored their solidarity, portraying Stephanie’s return as a return “home” after personal challenges.
