Graff took on the Los Angeles Regional tournament with ease and became the only woman there to move on after defeating the floating steps and the daunting “escalator.” And, as the announcers point out, she is the first woman to have conquered a 14.5-foot “warped wall.” [_Follow Motto on Facebook._](https://www.facebook.com/mottoworkplaylive/) Above, watch Graff blaze through the course as Catanzaro cheers her on from the crowd. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4361803/wonder-woman-american-ninja-warrior/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4361803/wonder-woman-american-ninja-warrior/"},"headline":"Watch 'Wonder Woman' Nail This American Ninja Warrior Course","datePublished":"2016-06-09T15:17:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T09:02:41.829Z","description":"She took on the warped wall with ease","url":"https://time.com/4361803/wonder-woman-american-ninja-warrior/","keywords":["motto"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6dd726cb5b300ce6/698896fe3c16391d4445d910/american-ninja-warrior-watch.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan Lasher","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-lasher/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6dd726cb5b300ce6/698896fe3c16391d4445d910/american-ninja-warrior-watch.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"NBC's \"American Ninja Warrior\" Season 7 Finale Preview Screening","caption":"Stunt-woman Jessie Graff attends the NBC's \"American Ninja Warrior\" season 7 finale preview screening held at The Autry National Center on September 9, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.","creditText":"Tommaso Boddi—WireImage","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/motto/","name":"motto"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4361803/wonder-woman-american-ninja-warrior/","name":"Watch 'Wonder Woman' Nail This American Ninja Warrior Course"}}]}] ```
