Jun 23, 2016 at 5:31 PM
It was a heck of a week in WWE, to say the least. After a blockbuster Money in the Bank PPV, we have got a solid Monday Night Raw after which the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion got suspended from the company, on a shocking term of events. Now, before he was sent to a sudden hiatus for 30 days span, on Raw, Shane McMahon announced a blockbuster triple threat match for the main event of the next PPV, Battleground.
Now, you should have noticed the funny antics of Shane McMahon before announcing the main event as to point out the fact that Stephanie McMahon was absent from the Raw. It was indeed a rare occasion when Stephanie McMahon was absent from the flagship show of WWE. In recent past, this kind of absence happened only due to storyline purposes. This time, though, it was a totally different reason.
Stephanie is in Cannes, France for the Cannes Lions Festival, currently as a representative of WWE. She would address the crowd in the festival on Thursday about WWE’s accomplishments over the last 50 years and how it became the pinnacle of sports entertainment. She will mention how the company has managed to engage audience for years. Stephanie is all set to join by the face of WWE, John Cena for the event.

It is needless to mention that Stephanie McMahon has been part of his father’s empire since the day she started. She has been involved and responsible for the marketing campaigns, on-screen duties, social connection with the media and much more corporate responsibilities which make her today as one of the principle co-owners of WWE. Nobody in the company works harder than Stephanie except Vince McMahon, himself.
