Among her ten career victories, she has shockingly pinned some of WWE's greatest legends, including The Rock, Trish Stratus, and Lita.

Stephanie McMahon competed against The Rock in three matches and lost two of them. Her only victory against The People's Champion came in 2001, when she teamed up with Test to take on The Rock on the September 17 episode of Monday Night RAW.

After The Rock hit the referee with a Rock Bottom following a heated verbal exchange between them, the match turned into chaos. Booker T and Shane McMahon then ran down to the ring to help Test take out The Brahma Bull, giving Stephanie the chance to pin him for the victory.

Throughout his long WWE career, The Rock was never pinned by another female Superstar.
