WWE has announced the first inductee into the 2026 Hall of Fame to be held next year - much earlier than anyone expected.
During last night's WWE Wrestlepalooza PLE, the legendary Undertaker came out and sat with Stephanie McMahon at ringside before surprising her with the revelation that she would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame next spring. Stephanie joins her husband Paul "HHH" Levesque, who was inducted last year.
The daughter of former CEO and Chairman Vince McMahon, Stephanie has been involved with WWE since she was a child, first appearing in the company's merchandise catalogue, before making her way onto TV in storylines during the Attitude Era. From there, she began fulfilling roles on the business side, leading WWE's creative team and then moved up to an executive role including Chairwoman and co-CEO with Nick Khan before resigning. Currently, she holds no official role with WWE but has made sporadic appearances over the last couple of years.
What a moment! 🙌
