And as much as anybody on the planet, she belongs here. And hopefully she knows that now. So, happy to have her back.”

Is Stephanie McMahon back in WWE?
PWInsider reported that they have heard that Stephanie McMahon has not officially returned to WWE in any form. It also says that she appeared on WrestleMania 40 to personally support her husband, Triple H and the company’s new era.
PWInsider report says,
“The former WWE Chairwoman and co-CEO has not officially returned to the company as an employee or executive in any way, shape or form. We are told that Stephanie did the opening promo on Wrestlemania 40 Night Two as a surprise to give the audience one more thing they did not expect and to personally lend her support to the company’s new era.
“Obviously, her husband (Paul Levesque) is one of the major players in charge, alongside WWE President Nick Khan, so this was seen by those we spoke to as McMahon putting her own personal stamp of approval on what they are doing. It was not designed to be the beginning of McMahon returning for storylines or behind the scenes duties.”
‘Obviously, she’s more than welcome to return down the line, but on Sunday, what we saw was exactly what it was – Stephanie stepping out in front of the Wrestlemania audience and using her goodwill to help the company.”
