17 Things We Learned From Stephanie McMahon On Live With Chris Jericho

12. Friendship With Andre The Giant

Stephanie has mentioned her friendship with Andre several times in and out of character and Jericho asks her about it here. She says that €œAndre and I had a bond.€ She tells a story from her mother€™s perspective that she doesn€™t actually remember, when The Giant pulled up to her house in his custom van while she was hopping on her trampoline. Supposedly Andre walked over and held out his hand, Stephanie stepped into it and then she kissed his cheek and he put her down. Linda called him her €œGulliver.€ McMahon says one of the things that always bothered her was how people treated him differently, and she could relate because she got the same treatment as Vince€™s daughter. The day she shared that with him it struck a chord in the big guy and that€™s how they became so close.
