The video package for Steph showed some of her most brutal slaps among many other moments. Several Superstars recalled how hard she hit them over the years.<\/p>\n
She was credited in the video with helping to lead the change in how women are booked in WWE. A lot of men and women spoke in the video about her presence backstage and how she has helped over the years. <\/p>\n
Stephanie’s mom, Linda, and three daughters were the ones who came out to officially induct her. Each of them spoke a little about Steph’s success in the business and what she means to each of them. <\/p>\n
Her daughters spoke about how much they admire their mom both as a businesswoman and as a mother. They put over her work with cancer charities and how much work she put into the Women’s Revolution in WWE. <\/p>\n
Each daughter shared unique memories about Stephanie as a mother, and you could see Triple H getting a little emotional in the crowd. Linda told a few stories about raising her before Stephanie came out to give her speech. <\/p>\n
We aren’t going to have four people giving speeches for each inductee, but this definitely went on longer than necessary. It was almost 40 minutes into the show before Stephanie finally came out to be the first inductee. <\/p>\n
Steph said she and Triple H were devastated when they found out they might not be able to have kids, but thanks to modern medicine, they were able to have three remarkable daughters. She said she will always fight for Aurora, Murphy and Vaughn. <\/p>\n
Stephanie put over each daughter for different accomplishments, including one of them pooping on their head of security as a baby in a funny moment. <\/p>\n
She talked about growing up in the business and having people like Ric Flair and Mr. T around as a child. She told a story about going to dinner with Andre the Giant when she was 14 and how funny he was. <\/p>\n
A short video aired about Connor’s Cure and pointed out one of the children from the video in the front row. She said he wasn’t expected to live past a year old and is about to celebrate his 16th birthday. It was a sweet moment and the crowd chanted his name for a few seconds. <\/p>\n
She thanked the WWE fans for everything, including all of the mean things they have chanted at her over the years. She also thanked everyone who works for WWE from top to bottom. <\/p>\n
She credited her mother-in-law for teaching her how to slap people. She rattled off several names of WWE stars who have been important to her in different ways before ending by talking about her husband. <\/p>\n
Stephanie covered a lot of ground with her speech, and since she has usually been a heel, she channeled that side of her to cut a quick promo about deserving to be in the HOF. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The video package for Steph showed some of her most brutal slaps among many other moments.
