Stephanie McMahon shared a heartwarming story about her eldest daughter, Aurora Levesque, and her early interest in the family business. According to McMahon, Aurora has had her sights set on a specific role within WWE since she was a toddler.
McMahon recounted a conversation where Aurora made her career aspirations very clear. “She said, ‘Mommy, I don’t want your job, Daddy, I don’t want your job. I want Pop’s job,'” McMahon said, referring to her father, Vince McMahon. “So she wanted to be the boss from the get-go… She was on the road with me since she was born… and I’d wheel her into the arena on my briefcase. I mean, she would come to the production meetings.”
Stephanie also recalled the exact moment Aurora fell in love with wrestling during a DX match in Waco, Texas. “It was DX… and they were getting the heat on Sean, and then they made the hot tag to Paul [Triple H], and like, I could feel her on my shoulders, get excited,” McMahon said. “And she understood the beats of the match… And then after the match was over… he takes her off my shoulders and parades her. And when [he] handed her back to me, her eyes were like this, wide, oh. And I was like, ‘Oh no. She got bit by the bug in that moment.’… I knew exactly the moment, two years old.”
While the next generation of the McMahon-Levesque family watches on, the current product is heating up for Survivor Series: WarGames. The event takes place this Saturday, November 29, at Petco Park in San Diego, featuring two WarGames matches and John Cena defending his Intercontinental Championship against Dominik Mysterio.
