Stephanie said they had a lot of fun with Rousey last year and it would be &#8220;amazing to have Rousey come back to WWE.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The interview\u00a0opened with a still shot of Hulk Hogan and Roddy Piper from WrestleMania 1 at Madison Square Garden to show WrestleMania&#8217;s progression from WM1 to WM32 trying to set an attendance record at AT&amp;T Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>Stephanie opened the interview talking about her villainous character playing a power-abusing authority figure in WWE storylines. She noted that her husband, Triple H, is WWE champion and he will be facing Roman Reigns at WrestleMania.<\/p>\n<p>Asked what it&#8217;s been like having her brother, Shane, back in the WWE fold for WrestleMania, Stephanie said it&#8217;s been awesome. She said Shane basically raised her &#8211; for better or worse &#8211; while her parents, Vince and Linda McMahon, operated the WWE family business.<\/p>\n<p>Stephanie explained Shane&#8217;s fight against The Undertaker at WM32 trying to gain control of WWE as part of the family power struggle.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2489741744\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Asked if her daughters will be part of WWE down the road, Stephanie said her oldest daughter wants to be a Diva.
