WrestleMania 35 was a pivotal moment in WWE history that Stephanie McMahon will never forget.
Stephanie McMahon and Becky Lynch recently appeared at the Sports Business Journal World Congress of Sport to discuss the women's evolution in WWE.
When talking about the first women's main event at WrestleMania 35, Stephanie revealed she pulled all three women aside before the match and thanked them for making history.
"I actually pulled Becky, Charlotte, and Ronda Rousey, who were the triple threat at MetLife Stadium in 2019," Stephanie McMahon began. "Before the show, I pulled them aside, and I just thanked them because when I was a little girl growing up, I could never have imagined seeing women such an integral part of the show and indeed the main event."
"Our fans are a part of the women's evolution."
