5 Nastiest bumps Stephanie McMahon has taken in WWE

A lot of WWE fans aren't big fans of Stephanie McMahon but I sort of disagree with them because I think the problem is that WWE use her in the same way as a heel authority figure which has gotten stale now.

Stephanie McMahon is an absolute legend and one of the most underrated performers in WWE history. She's not only a great performer when inside the ring but she is also brilliant on the mic. If you go back to the early 2000s, Stephanie McMahon was one of the most compelling characters in WWE.

Let's start off today by looking at some of the nastiest bumps that Stephanie McMahon has taken in her WWE career. Did I miss any? Sound off in the comments below.

#5 Pedigree from Triple H

The main event of WrestleMania 18 saw Triple H face Undisputed Champion Chris Jericho for the title. Jericho had The Game's wife, Stephanie McMahon, in his corner.

The finish of the match saw Stephanie McMahon come into the ring with a steel chair. She went to hit Triple H with it but the referee stopped her. The Game then hit his wife with the Pedigree and he didn't hold back with it either.

The Game went on to win the match and the WWE Undisputed Championship.

#4 Going through a table at WrestleMania 33

Seth Rollins versus Triple H at WrestleMania 33 ended up being a disappointment in the end. The biggest problem with it was probably how much time Seth Rollins spent out with injury leading up to the match and the storyline and build itself was not the most compelling that we've seen. The fact that Rollins was probably not fully fit also led to a much slower match than we'd expect.

The finish saw Stephanie McMahon get on the apron to try and distract Rollins. Rollins then superkicked The Game and he crashed into Stephanie. She lost her balance and crashed through a table that had been set up at ringside.

#3 Samoan Drop from Jamal after Billy and Chuck's wedding

It was the September 12th episode of WWE SmackDown and the main segment of the show was Billy and Chuck's commitment ceremony. In the end, it turned out to all be a sham and all a publicity stunt devised by their manager Rico.

This wasn't where it ended. It turned out that the minister was the RAW General Manager Eric Bischoff in disguise. Bischoff's henchmen Three Minute Warning - Rosey and Jamal - crashed the ceremony and laid out everyone, not even sparing SmackDown General Manager Stephanie McMahon.

After laying out Billy and Chuck, Jamal hit Stephanie McMahon with a nasty Samoan Drop while Eric Bischoff encouraged it from next to him.

This led to members of the SmackDown roster including a fresh-faced clean-cut John Cena coming out to chase them away and get medical attention for their General Manager.

#2 Beatdown from Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 34

Ronda Rousey's first match in WWE saw her team up with WWE legend Kurt Angle to face Triple H and Stephanie McMahon at WrestleMania 34. To be quite honest, Stephanie took a number of nasty bumps during the match so I'm just adding the entire match to this list. Go back and take a look at those judo throws from Rousey, you'll see what I mean. At one point during the match, Kurt Angle also had his patented Ankle Lock hooked in on Stephanie.

The match ended with Rousey and Angle countering a stereo Pedigree attempt by Stephanie and The Game. Rousey then had Stephanie in the ring to herself and locked in her armbar and hats off to Stephanie McMahon, she sold it like a legend and put over Ronda Rousey bigtime.

#1 Spear from Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 32

Let's be honest, regardless of whether you're a fan of Roman Reigns and Triple H or not, the main event of WWE WrestleMania 32 was a complete dud. The main thing the crowd seemed interested in during the match was to chant for other things and make their disapproval felt. And can you blame them, only a tiny cross-section of WWE fans who were die-hard Roman Reigns fans were invested in this match. The main problem going in was that Triple H shouldn't have been the one to face Reigns at Mania. Someone like Dean Ambrose would have been a much better option.

Regardless, let's take a look at the nasty bump Stephanie McMahon took near the end of the match. Roman Reigns was going to spear Triple H but he sidestepped and The Bog Dog literally mowed down Stephanie McMahon with one of his best Spears of all time.
