With Stephanie McMahon set to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2026, there are numerous stars that could do the honors.
From current stars that could speak to Stephanie’s impact on their careers to others who have had a major impact on Stephanie McMahon’s life, there are plenty of options for who could do McMahon’s induction ceremony speech.
Here are seven WWE stars who could induct Stephanie McMahon into the Hall of Fame 2026
7. Triple H
Caught on camera wiping a tear at the announcement at WWE Wrestlepalooza, a heartfelt speech from Stephanie McMahon’s husband Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque could be the most appropriate.
Having been a pair on-screen and in life for decades, Triple H is likely the closest person to speak to Stephanie’s contributions.
HHH would be able to bring together McMahon’s memorable on-screen moments as well as her off-screen roles as executive, wife and mother.
Doing the honors in a touching way, it would also be a nice moment to see Levesque speaking from the heart.

Bringing some of his clear respect for McMahon into the induction speech, Heyman would be a seemingly unlikely person to speak about Stephanie so glowingly.
Bringing together a compelling speaking style with some juicy stories to keep people interested, Heyman may be a solid choice to induct Stephanie McMahon.

4. Becky Lynch
A current roster member that could do the honors of inducting Stephanie McMahon into the WWE Hall of Fame 2026 is Becky Lynch.
While her over the top on-screen persona has been a heel as of late, Becky Lynch has spoken fondly about Stephanie McMahon over the years including her impact on the women’s evolution in WWE.
Able to speak about both working for Stephanie McMahon as well as alongside her as a performer, Lynch could also identify with Stephanie’s roles outside of the company as a wife and mother.
Equally likely to be able to discuss McMahon’s positive impact on WWE and her career could be Charlotte Flair, who’d be able to speak about her shared and very unique upbringing in the professional wrestling business.

One WWE legend with a copious amount of on-screen history with Stephanie McMahon is Chris Jericho.

After lobbying some vicious insults her direction over the years, the induction speech could be a solid opportunity for Jericho to voice his warm regard for McMahon as well.
With plenty of on-screen and behind the scenes antics to reference, Jericho would certainly make for an entertaining albeit heartwarming speech.
