Stephanie McMahon
Associated Press’ The Big Story recently posted an interview about WWE’s new partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of America, and talked to Stephanie McMahon about the new partnership and her on-air during a Be-A-Star rally in Miami this week.
In regards to her explaining her character to children at the rallies, Stephanie said:
“I address it immediately that my character portrays a bully. But that’s my character. And we’re utilizing stories to tell messages. In reality, these are things that are happening and we need to give you the tools that you need to stand up in real life against these issues.”
WWE Superstar Titus O’Neil also commented on what he tells kids about the differences between what they see on TV and the real locker room atmosphere, saying:
“The question comes up all the time, well, we saw such-and-such beat up guys, do they not really like each other. I tell them that we’re playing characters on television much like movie stars play characters in movies. But in real life, we really get along like brothers and sisters and we’re family.”
