Even as her family is under intense scrutiny, Stephanie McMahon, one of the most prominent women in the wrestling world, took her place in the WWE Hall of Fame on Friday evening, as a part of the festivities of WrestleMania. As she was the on-camera owner of Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) during the ill-fated Invasion in 2001, part of her career highlight reel was soundtracked by Drowning Pool's "Bodies," which served as the theme song for the brand from WWE's acquisition of it in 2001 onward.
Check it out below:
As the daughter of WWE ex-owner and CEO Vince McMahon, Stephanie, who served as Chief Brand Officer, one-time co-CEO, and on-screen general manager and commissioner, enjoyed a long career both in front of and behind the camera. A former WWF Women's Champion, the boss' daughter was one of the most visible heels in the business, known for her bitch slaps and her power trips. Her induction was announced at WWE Wrestlepalooza back in September 2025, and now she becomes part of the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2026.
Though her on-screen history has been a point of contention among fans, to say nothing of her numerous stories backstage, it's great to hear one of nu metal's biggest hits in her Hall of Fame package. Cuz it was jarring as hell to hear "Thank you Vince" chants during her induction speech. Ugh.
