Stephanie McMahon doesn’t get wrapped up in the noise.
McMahon appeared on The Pat McAfee Show and spoke about dealing with certain aspects of the media. In particular, McAfee asked her how she deals with the cheap shots people have taken at her family over the years. Does she try to stay above it or ignore it?
“So it’s been my whole life. When I was in high school, [that] was when my dad was indicted [on federal charges for conspiracy to distribute anabolic steroids to WWF wrestlers]. The media came after my family in a really big and really hard way to deal with when you’re in high school. And I think at that time, I was filled with a lot of anger and resentment. I had a hard time navigating all of that,” Stephanie explained.
“I think now in my later years when it seems to all happen again, it’s with a little bit of reverence that I can appreciate it because it’s just noise,” she continued. “People have opinions no matter what and that’s great. You can think you know exactly what’s going on, you can give whatever dirt you think you know. But at the end of the day, I know where I stand. That’s how I have to be. Grounded and rooted in who I am and what I believe in and try to ignore the noise.”
Stephanie McMahon also addressed stepping down and taking a leave of absence from WWE in 2023. Stephanie said that leaving was something she needed, but it was good for her.
