On this page I'll describe Stephanie McMahon's life and career: the successes and failures, the joys and sorrows. Intelligent, beautiful and enterprising. These three words sum up Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley perfectly. The youngest McMahon has used these assets to her own advantage, to the point where two men (Triple H and Kurt Angle) fought over her and to where she has resolved to earn the respect she feels she deserves in the World Wrestling Federation. At least on the surface, Stephanie wasn't always the person she's turned out to be. A series of events started by her own father resulted in a dramatic change in Stephanie's personality. For months, Vince McMahon used her in a game of "chess" with Austin by keeping her terrified at the Undertaker's constant threat of harm, to the point when she was kidnapped and nearly sacrificed at a "black wedding." When that horrifying time was finally over, Stephanie turned to Test for love and affection. With a wedding date set, fate intervened. Irate at Mr. McMahon, the British Bulldog threw a metal trash can in protest. It accidentally hit Stephanie, giving her a concussion and amnesia. Weeks later, Stephanie recovered and set another wedding date. But this one never took place either. At the eleventh hour, Triple H appeared to say he and Stephanie had been married the night before in a drive-thru ceremony in Las Vegas. Stephanie appeared emotionally destroyed, until she stunned the world at Armageddon by turning on Vince to side with Triple H! Claiming it was the best way to get back at her father for what he did to her months ago (the plot involving the Undertaker), Stephanie said her marriage to Triple H was legit, and he "turns her on!" As husband and wife, Stephanie and Triple H led the World Wrestling Federation into the new millennium with the McMahon-Helmsley era, and it would never be the same again! With a heartbroken Vince out of the picture, Stephanie and Triple H's diabolical tactics forever changed the careers of various Superstars. One was Mick Foley, who was first fired after losing a Stephanie-ordered Pink Slip on a Pole Match to The Rock and who eventually was forced into retirement at No Way Out. Another was Tori, Kane's ex-girlfriend. Not the same person after forced into spending a holiday weekend with X-Pac, Tori broke Kane's heart and aligned herself with DX! Shortly after, Stephanie became the Federation Women's Champion, and reunited with her father and her brother, Shane to form the McMahon-Helmsley faction with Vince, Shane, Triple H and DX. With husband and wife both Federation Champions, Triple H's and Stephanie's power was virtually untouchable. But Stephanie was about to face the biggest, most emotional challenge of her young life! Stephanie would lose her Women's Championship to Lita, and that was just the beginning of her problems. Shortly after his Federation debut, Stephanie seemed to take a liking to Kurt Angle. Though it appeared the two engaged in some suspicious flirting, she and the 1996 Olympic gold medalist insisted they were "just friends." Yet Angle has kissed her on more than one occasion, incurring the wrath of an angry Triple H, and Stephanie even accompanied Angle to ringside as part of their "business relationship!"
