What will revealing Triple H's relation to the Mcmahons do to his character??

[Mighty NorCal]

So tonight, it was made obvious, after all these years, that Triple H and Steph are married off screen, and Triple H is in fact part of the Mcmahon family. If you dont see potential for TONS of different directions here, your foolish. I can see him being involved in tons of storylines involving them, should they remain highly on camera post-WM. Or, I guess one could presume, they will just ignore the fact for the most part, as they have all these years. WWE booking tends to have short term memory anyhow.

What do you guys think?? How will his marriage to steph being revealed effect his future??

[mattitude2007]

Personally, I'm just curious as to how they'll explain them being married all these years while still keeping kayfabe.

Will they just play it as though it will come as a surprise to the McMahon family too? Or that big ol daddy Vince just chose to ignore the shame of HHH being his son-in-law, and HHH keeping it secret as well, not out of mutual respect for Vince's wishes but just to say he was trying to 'keep his image cool' in the joking tone he often uses.

Eh. We'll see. Either way I love Trips and don't care what comes. I will watch him till he retires.

[Monkey Winchester]

Good question.

It won't affect him at all. It might give his character another emotion though, and that is sympathy. Sympathy for someone other than himself. People LOVE Triple H. Non smarks that is. Most people (Non Smarks included) knew that he was married to Triple H. So I don't think that it will change peoples opinion of him that greatly. In fact if it does, it will make people relate to him more. Someone who sees his wife get beat up, then he comes and protects her. With all the bad things going on in this world, people will eat this up. Seeing a hero in Triple H.

It will be good for his character.

[muxiroger]

If they choose to keep this out in the open only one real future seems evident to me, and its pretty vague. I just see him being the McMahon's muscle and, if they choose to back away from camera again, their mouthpiece.

It could easily give him a heel-turn though. He could exploit that much like Edge does with Vickie and, when he drops the title, use it to get all kinds of rematches and special conditions in said matches.

Although its very unlikely, I could actually see this storyline turn into an Orton face-turn and HHH heel-turn. Have HHH start picking off Legacy one after another. Then, have Orton actually apologize and get Pedigree'd for it. Its a complete long-shot but something along those lines could work. I'd love to see HHH become a heel again, and I think Orton could benefit from a face-turn with some fresh storylines.

[Frank White]

its no real suprise, like said before everyone already knew. and if anyone remembers Trips has sarcasticly joked about it before on numerous occasions without actually saying it.

My theory is and it works perfectyl with this whole thing is....

Steph Goats Trips into Fitting Orton at WM. Then in a perfect scheme she reveals herslef as the brains behing Legacy already having Orton take out her family one by one. And now she has the company to do what she please's

This way Trips isnt really tarnished as being a product of his marriage ( which we all know hes not ). Its a twist on a classic storyline and if done right could make for some good wrestling entertainment

That would be a perfect McMahonism. I could see it happen and move the storyline for at least another 3 or 4 months. It could end with a Last Man Standing Match or let HHH and Orton go at it in HIAC at the Great American Bash. I could see him challenging Orton to the cell to keep Legacy out.

[The icon26]

I see all types of potential, this could add some much needed realism to this angle. What man wouldn't protect there family ESP there wife. This is what raw needs I think at adds repti th The Game. As great as he is this adds compasion to his character. It shows that hebcars about others, at first I was skeptical about this feud but aftervseing raw, Randy is at the top of his game he is a legend in the making, HHH face at the end was great il looking forward and pray the writers dnt screw it up.

[Cpt Charisma]

Trips has made allusions to it in the past. Subtle, but they were to the point where even the lowest IQ'd mark would have realized something was up and at the very least ASKED someone who had the internet.

So I don't think it does anything to Trips' character. Marks will still love him, those of us smarks who rolled with DX during the Attitude era will still know he's actually earned his spot, and smarks who aren't old enough to remember the Attitude era will still hate on him because he is married to Steph and they think that he doesn't deserve his spot.

Sorry But, What?

Now onto the question at hand. This is an interesting development in so far as they can point to a certain point back a couple of years, when Bischoff was fired. Anyone remember it? Vince arrives at Raw in the Limo and Trips is there to say that Bischoff should be kept, well when Steph got out of the limo, trips went "Hi Steph". Don't ask me why I remember that but I do. If they do as well then they could go and play off that ad say that they got back together around that point in time. But kept it relatively quiet. But even Vince has admitted it at times, on Byte This, it was raised as asking about thanksgiving at the McMahon household with Triple H. So it isn't too hard to work with.

As to how it will affect his character I don't know, there is too much variation to how they can work it, the protecting of the wife, the being played by the wife. The just because I want to angle. Its not too hard to come up with some justification.

[TheOneBigWill]

What will it do? WHAT WILL IT DO?! I'll tell you what it'll do, it'll collectively make every I.W.C. Triple H. hater's head spontaneously combust. They won't have any more secret smark knowledge of something that's never been a secret to begin with. They won't know how to react in seeing the guy they wanna hate so much for his personal life relationship, actually playing out a Main Event storyline, about his personal life relationship!

In reality for the rest of us, it'll do absolutely nothing except create a very great reason for Triple H. and Randy Orton to reenter into yet another feud between the two of them, for a purpose other than to bore the living shit outta us.

I honestly hope they do this right though. No half assing it, no trying to beat around the bush about it. I want Triple H., next Monday Night on Raw coming out and flat-out being the pissed off Husband each and every male would be, if their Wife had just gotten laid out like Orton did to Stephanie.

I don't think any self-respecting man in this world, with a Wife, would react any differently than what we're all anticipating and hoping Triple H. will react with. That's flatout aggression, anger, and vengeance. Rules and "scripts" thrown out the window. NO "match" involved. Just a pure encounter between a prick, and a very pissed off, loving Husband.

If anything, THIS will help evolve Triple H. even more in his career. It'll add another layer to the already greatness that he's become.

[Sasha Fierce]

I think this will make his character interesting again. For a while to me anyways HHH has been boring and all his feuds are really the same and pretty much meaningless. I think now that he is probably feuding with Orton over his wife it makes the scenario interesting. The possibilities on how this goes could be endless.

I'm really looking forward to this actually and this is coming from a HHH hater. I just think it will make him more interesting. Already with his run in tonight, I was more entertained by him then I have since he moved to smackdown. I kind of wish HHH turns heel and him and steph become the next power couple. But I guess that will have to wait til after the feud with Orton.

I think the fans are intrigued by this and it's only going to help him. While some "smarks" might get there knickers in a knot and claim that this is unfair and what not for whatever reason, but honestly who cares. This could be a great storyline with different outcomes(including a possible Steph swerve)that I for one am excited about trips again and this hasn't happened for me in a long time.

[horsemen4ver]

It will do nothing to his character. Everybody knew for years that Triple H and Stephanie were married. If people didnt know that where the hell have you been for the last 10 years.

[Mighty NorCal]

How do you figure?? when was it ever mentioned, outside of the attitude era, in a kayfabe wedding?? True he may have eluded to it in a few promos, but only people who visit Wrestling websites knew what they were talking about. The vast majority of young fans, and their parents who watch with them, have zero idea. Ypu have to understand, the attitude era and the current veiwing demographic are an extremely different group of individuals. Yor average fan, 85% of the veiwing audience, likely had zero clue. And yoru wrong, already, as this week, it added the human element to "the destroyer" as was evident tonight. he showed sympathy, love, protection. Triple Hs character wouldnt seen as a loving husband up until this point.

[klunderbunker]

Just watched Raw and i like it. Norcal is right though in that we already know where this is going but the majority of the fans don't. He's almost flat out said it in a few promos such as when he says he'll see Steph at home, but how many people remember a line like that? Shawn always says that HHH married what's her name, but never mentions that it was legit. For all the fans know he's talking about the drive through wedding. This is somethign different for HHH. What's the biggest criticism of him? He's stale. This will be a new side to his character. Also, he and Steph will have that natural chemistry you don't get in fake couples such as Edge and Vickie. It's like when brothers team up. There's something there that you can't fake. The promos will be better and so will the actions accompanying them. Like this idea very well.

[SuperSteve16]

I think that this will do a great deal for Triple H's character. Say he got traded to Raw at the draft ( I'm crossing my fingers), Triple H and Stephane Mc Mahon could be a nice version of Edge and Vicky. Hell one day, Triple H could even be the owner of the WWE! Also if HHH does get traded back to raw, it would mean the return of DX!

[Phoenix]

After watching Raw last night, I think we've see one thing that Triple H hasn't had for a good long while, he has a weakness! In the time of the McMahon-Helmsley era, Stephanie mostly helped him in wins and didn't play majors parts in his losses until Summerslam 2000 which led to a feud with Kurt Angle.

The annoying thing about Trips is that he appears indestructable and can take a beating from the whole roster and win. With him nowing having Stephanie's marriage to him finally playing light, it adds new depth and a way for people to attack Trips to make his feuds more interesting.

[Lord Sidious]

It will open up all sorts of potential possibilities down the road. But it certainly isn't going to hurt his character, at this point.

They are just acknowledging what everyone already knows anyway.

[OIL]

It just opens up HHH's character more. I mean up to now, bar Shawn Michaels, it was ALL about Triple H. Anything he did was solely for his gain. Now add his wife into that and his dimension changes. While he'll do things for himself, he'll need to be looking after his wife on the flipside. I mean, if HHH's opponents try anything on Steph then he'll have to react.

Also, it just opens up more fueds. People can use that 'you're the bosses daughter's husband, you've had success given to you' SHIT. It is shit. The man is bloody amazing. However, it just opens up more fueds for people to use this. Heck, maybe a family fued too. It's just going to change his character basically in the way that he'll have to look after his wife too, not just him.

[Rob]

Its got the point now where its a case off... "Ok we know that the two are bunking up together, and have known for a long time, maybe its time to stop treating us, the fans like children".

They've been married like 5 and a half years already and we have known since day one that they have been. Maybe they should start using this as an angle to intensifie a potential HHH/Orton feud.

As for the question will it effect Triple H's character... if I'm honest it'll probably improve his character. Because Triple H's character has always been intense and ruthless and if his character was fighting for vengence over his real-life wife getting hurt by his opponent, it'll drive him to do more vicious things. If I'm honest if they go ahead with the Orton/HHH storyline, both guys will be so intent to hurt the other, it'll end up being settled in a Hell in a Cell match at some stage. And I think thats one match we'll all love to see.

[Dragonslayer]

I agree with the notion that this is only good for Trips at this point - I agree that him constantly being in the title picture and in feuds only centered around the belt without any personal issues attached to it whatsoever lately, much like Batista (unlike the feuds of say, Cena vs Edge, which was hugely personal, or also Trips vs Orton after the Evolution split), and that has made him stale. Of course he is over as hell, and he is a competent in-ring worker... but if there is no other storyline behind his matches for years on end except that "Triple H wants/needs to be champion", it starts to get boring.

Now, with this move, they add dimension to his character, and people will actually pay attention to the feud, since it is something they can relate to, something that could happen in real life (someone attacks your wife/girlfriend), and something that makes you care about the person, and gets you interested in what is going to happen next, and whether he will get his revenge or not... Just think about the HBK/Jericho angle of last year... when they worked on the angle long-time, and got HBK's wife smacked by Jericho - well, that's what got people really into the feud.

And I really think it's a good thing WWE is trying to do a bit more down-to-earth with their storylines, focusing more on personal issues between wrestlers instead of simply their "drive to be champion" - that would suffice in a "real" fighting environment, if someone is simply "better" than the other... but in wrestling, you just need a good storyline that gets the fans involved on an emotional basis, otherwise there's no point in it all. But WWE made a couple of good moves lately, with the HBK/Jericho feud being very personal, then the HBK/JBL thing taking the current economic crisis as a basis, and now the Trips/Orton thing... it just makes the whole thing seem more real, and you have to "suspend your disbelief" less, simply because the storylines are not that much "out there". Also, the Jeff vs Matt feud will definitely somehow be appealing to people, simply because it is the "brother conflict"-storyline, which a lot of people will also be able to relate to.

So definitely some smart moves on part of WWE leading up to Wrestlemania, and, to get back on topic, definitely a good move for Triple H right now. They have a ton of potential with that Legacy storyline right now, especially if they play it like one of the McMahon's doublecrosses the others... we all know, a McMahon will never work as a face really, and especially not ALL of them - one has to have his (or her ;) ) own agenda, and hopefully they'll play it out around that.

[kenvin100]

I think it will affect Triple H, his story line anyway.. heck we can see a potential heel turn for Steph and the McMahons..I dont think people forget the feud Trips had with Vince..Steph can turn on Triple H the night after Wrestlemania!

[XxHardyFan4LyfxX]

well it is already been said , but i think that leading up to WM that the really non-smarks will find out that steph & trips are married and again leading up 2 WM the Mcmahon-Helmsly era will be back.......for 6 weeks that is coz it obvious that it steph will screw HHH outta the title at WM coz steph could be the possible mind behind legacy coz it sure as hell wont be shane that screws hhh at WM and randy will win title at mania and by the end of the year hhh will have surpassed flairs hard earned record =[ that is unless hhh has another 8 month title reign again after he eventually wins title back from randy at some stage in april (as in backlash) may or june.

[IC25]

For starters, putting the Triple H and Stephanie marriage out in the open, at least to the smarky fans, will hopefully serve to get ignorant fans off of his back for the entire "the only reason he's champ is because..." bullshit. In the immortal words of Professor Jordan Perry from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: "Sometimes the best place to hide is right out in the open."

And NorCal, you could tell by the crowd reaction on that episode of Raw when Stephanie was having the 2nd child - DX came out and showed pics of that the baby looked like, with HHH's face on it. Most fans knew. It got around. I think it'll be an easy transition into the storyline, maybe with a "I still love you, Steph" thing going on, and them getting "remarried" on Raw or some shit.

This is the best thing for both HHH and Orton. I was in my office on the CPU (on the LD) when HHH made the save last night, and I could hear the crowd pop for Hunter. They want this. They respect someone who comes to save his family. I was thrilled. Honestly, of all the directions they could have gone in with this, they chose the best possible one.

I'll do you one better - if my original idea of one of the McMahon kids being alligned with Legacy (maybe Steph?) is true, setting up a Raw feud with Triple H - well, then we have months of really solid programming ahead of us.

[truk24]

Maybe Shane joins Legacy, and says that he did it because he felt threatened by HHH. His brother-in-law has been rumored to have a hand in the state of the WWE once all is said and done. If we are going to put the real life fact that Trips/Stephanie are a family. Why not putting out in the open on HHH's affect on the business even if a grudge isn't there between he and Shane?

[salomon1080s]

this is a great thing for hhh character. He has been the same thing same promos for a while now this will deff bring a new dimension to his character, the family man. This also leads me to believe that hhh will some day be the new kafable boss of the wwe. which i also think is another great idea. who pulls off being a heel or a face better then hhh? him being the boss would be a great way to cap off his already amazing career.

[tron303]

Totally agree with a previous post. The Stephanie turn would be a great storyline. Think about it. Orton has had so many opportunities to punt her as well, and has taken a pass. Steph turns on Trips right before or at WM25, look at the pops when Vickie comes out on Smackdown. Raw would love to have that with Stephanie! This could be a longstanding storyline.

[RickDotMark.13]

I think the best option from here is play up the marriage thing, then have Steph turn on Trips at WM25. Then have her join Legacy, you could even have Steph and Randy in a relationship or something to take it up a notch.

[DeadmanInc.]

Well it looks like they are going to have to get married on screen again since after reading WWE.com, there still isn't any mention of their relationship.

I think Vince will be the one to backstab the McMahons. I don't think he is going to miss the 25th anniversary of the show he created so he must have some part to play. If Stephanie does get married to Triple H on screen, I could see Vince screwing Triple H out of the title for that very reason.

[Rob]

But its pathetic! Do they really think we don't know that in real life they are married?! Do they take us for idiots? Seriously they shouldn't patronise the fans who know the truth. For storyline purpose's, Steph getting re-married to Triple H would be very interesting but because Triple H has come out of role several times when it comes to the HHH/Steph marriage in real life thing, it would look stupid.

[Queers and Steers]

i mean everybody knew anyway! i mean if they didnt than damn why are they watching wrestling!? and yeah i defintely thinks it helps his character because it gives him more motivation to beat Orton he will be more intense than ever! making it a bigger accomplishment once orton beats him at mania!

[Age of Orton]

Well it looks like they are going to have to get married on screen again since after reading WWE.com, there still isn't any mention of their relationship.

I think Vince will be the one to backstab the McMahons. I don't think he is going to miss the 25th anniversary of the show he created so he must have some part to play. If Stephanie does get married to Triple H on screen, I could see Vince screwing Triple H out of the title for that very reason.

why do they need to get married on screen?
Back in 2006 in the whole DX deal when Trips and Stephanie had their first kid it was mentioned that Trips had been there with the McMahons when Stephanie dropped.. you're looking to much into it.

[phat_inallthegoodplaces]

i don;t know if this has already been mentioned, because i didn't read every single note, but i'd like to see a triple h, shane, and someone else (don't know who) against orton and legacy. i think that could make for some good matches with shane FINALLY getting to hit the coast to coast on orton.

[Banx21]

i dont think its gonna make any affect at all since everyone already knows....whats he gonna d come out and say "Vince im the one who has ur daughters two kidsand we r married" it b pointless....

[RawIsRamsey]

Am I the only one who thinks that Trips and Steph's on-screen relationship is going to lead to Trips retiring within the year? After all, he's in his 40's and he's set financially and professionally. There is nothing more for him to accomplish (other than beating Flair's World Title number, but I think even Trips knows he doesn't deserve that honor). I really think this is brewing towards him leaving the spotlight...he's been a solid main eventer for almost 10 years, with only Taker and HBK being in the ME spotlight for longer...he's had a tremendous run, therefore I think it's coming time to turn the Game off.

[tripsfan4life]

Yes you are the only one who thinks like that. Triple H was simply defending his Wife after that ASSCLOWN ORTON RKO'D her for no reason.

[IrishEnglishman24]

As for alluding to being married, whenever HHH and HBK were commenting about the father being a stud, that is the only clue HHH has given non-kayfabe.

As for the actual question, I think HHH is at a point with the crowd where nothing he can do will really make him heel, so why not add to his faceness by having him defend his wife, only to have her turn on him. It also adds some intensity to a feud which no-one was REALLY sure where it would end for Orton. Now he has direction, and HHH has honour to defend. The classic good vs evil.

[Alex(Killer Of Dreams & Legends)]

well i have been a triple h fan for a long time and granted i wanted them to do this bring him back into the "family" but for every one trying to think that they have to explain there marriage thats crap cause im sure that most smart wrestling fans have known that for years and they do mention it in code from time to time but they dont need to explain it . this is a story line they want people to belive that a guy would honor his wife and come out the hero . but this should complete hhh's character from this i only see hhh breaking flairs record then hopefully step down and give some one else a shot to be in the spot light

[notorious102]

It would explain how he became so huge. Becuz it sure wasn't off of his natural talent or lackof. People would see how much he really deserves everything he gets in the WWE.

[CCS]

I dont think it'll hurt Triple H's character. He's one of the five most popular wresters right now, and I really dont think revealing his relationship with Stephanie McMahnon will hurt him, It'll probably actually help him get over more. They're building up Orton as a bastard who beat up Triple H's family, and most importantly hurt his wife. I think that most fans will sympathize with Triple H and cheer him on when he faces Orton at wrestlemania. It should make for a very interesting match up at the least.

[pstechen]

The crowd reaction last night showed WWE exactly what everyone on here already knows ... kayfabe or not HHH and Stephanie are married, we all know that, we all HAVE known that so let's move on with a storyline that makes RAW watchable again!!! The crowd and home audience had to be cheering when HHH was making the save, hell I thought he was coming down to the ring before Orton hit Steph with the RKO...you knew who she was calling on the phone before the final match went down anyway. Plus, with the way NWO went down, you know that HHH is heading back to RAW and Cena to Smackdown to challenge Edge.

HHH's character will definitely benefit from this storyline because Orton has become what HHH used to be, there is so much history between Orton and HHH that storylines just ooze out of the creative team's minds...adding Stephanie to the mix was the icing on the cake!

I think WWE is finally realizing that they can keep the brands seperate but also spread out storylines and talent over all of the brands to make TV more entertaining, Christian cannot stay on ECW forever, HHH is not a SD star, and Cena is getting old on RAW and needs to leave, and the draft will hopefully accomplish this!

[tehblogger]

yada yada yada. I'm 99 percent sure this has been on WWE TV before. In terms of Triple H, the crowd and his character, it will do nothing of any importance.

As people are saying, what it will do is set up a Trips/Orton match at Mania. This is something I just don't want to see. Because I've already seen it. Orton, I suspect, will go over. He is THE PRESENT (trademarked) and THE FUTURE (trademarked), and since Trips doesn't usually win at Wrestlemania anyway...

That's fine, but it doesn't change the fact that we've seen Orton/Trips before, the chemistry between them is good but not great, and Mania 25 should really have fresh matches. Or at least matches we've not seen a gazillion times over within the last year and a half.

[NightShiftLoser]

Wasn't part of the angle during the brand split, that Triple H was married to Steph, and she tried to use that to get him on Smackdown?

Part 1 From Vengeance '02

jvXatpB7I8A

Part 2

VBfWRyKtJFY

Basically, the "reveal" on RAW, won't do anything for long-time fans, or anyone who knew anyway. The only people it will affect, are the people who have just started watching, and have been hiding under a rock for a few months.

[IrishEnglishman24]

It would explain how he became so huge. Becuz it sure wasn't off of his natural talent or lackof. People would see how much he really deserves everything he gets in the WWE.

Because clearly he got cheered because he's married to Steph. Or because he won titles when he wasn't married to her because the Creative department was psychic and knew it would happen and wanted to kiss Vince's ass before it happened.

Or maybe, and this is just a big MAYBE... the guy who made DX, was one of the best heels going when he turned on them and then ushered in the McMahon Helmsley era (Oh, and remember, he wasn't married to her at this point) and was hated on screen, was good enough to make it by himself.

HHH is good at what he does and he makes people love or hate him, like the Rock, like Austin, like HBK and like Hogan. None of those guys were great in the ring, so if you would be so kind as to stop basing HHH's career of his wife

So HHH has won the belt a few times. If he was as selfish as people say, he wouldn't have tapped to Benoit, tapped to Cena at WM, he wouldn't have put over Jeff Hardy. But the fact is, people are so blind to the fact that HHH is in a relationship with a woman who happens to be the owner's daughter, that everything he does is for his own ego.

[Murfishes Can Use Calculus and Physics]

If they stick with highlighting his relationship with 'the family', then there will be an opportunity for an epic angle. We hear everyone complain about Triple H all the time, whether he's a boring roided out oaf or a sycophantic self-promoter. You give Trips a heel turn. Then half the IWC will be like "Oh yays, his character is better now". At that point you give him a real burying gimmick. Have him replace his trusted sledgehammer with a brand new shovel. He then begins to abuse his power to keep himself from looking bad. You could have Stephanie throw out matches as he's losing, pull scripted blackouts when he has the upper hand, and many other things. The point is that you turn him into an openly self-serving heel that you couldn't support even if you wanted to. It won't happen, but I'd laugh my ass off if it did.

[Vankid34]

I think like THEONEBIGWILL mention the world already knows about their marriage and kids so outside of storyline and clever tactics HHH should show up with the same passion as he had the closing of RAW and come clean.
This can open a storyline in itself but everyone knows and expects a man to come and regulate on whoever hurt their wife.
That's the Human Element.

[notorious102]

HHH is good at what he does and he makes people love or hate him, like the Rock, like Austin, like HBK and like Hogan. None of those guys were great in the ring, so if you would be so kind as to stop basing HHH's career of his wife

Umm people hate him becuz he doesn't deserve alot of the shit that he gets. He's one of, if not the most overrated wrestler of al time.

He doesn't even deserve to have the belt. that's the point. But kids like you are so brainwashed into thinking that he's the greatest thing to ever step in the ring you guys don't care ..... marks anyways !:suckit:

[IrishEnglishman24]

Umm people hate him becuz he doesn't deserve alot of the shit that he gets. He's one of, if not the most overrated wrestler of al time.

So were Hogan and Flair. Flair was worthless after his plane crash, and Hogan merely coasted by on being Vince's chosen one. To be honest, kids cheered him when he returned because they'd heard of him, not because he was impressing them.

He doesn't even deserve to have the belt. that's the point. But kids like you are so brainwashed into thinking that he's the greatest thing to ever step in the ring you guys don't care ..... marks anyways !:suckit:

Two feuds of the years, one Match of the year. Now, does the fact he is related to Vince help him even remotely perform in the ring against Angle and Benoit? Eh, not really. They might get him there, but it takes more that being the boss' relative to keep it. If that wasn't true, it'd Shane O'Mac as champion.

Like him or not, and you've made it clear you don't, 7 of his 13 wins have come before he married Stephanie. Given he's had 3 of the others in the last 6 months, that sorta makes you wonder just how you come up with the fact that he's there because he married Stephanie. He won KOTR before that, he won all his other belts before it... So bar 6 (5 if you count that idiotic night where he won it and held it for 3 hours) belts and one Rumble win where he was back from injury and guaranteed a push, in the 5.5 years of marriage, you gotta think that's not a good return

Triple H vs Randy Orton- WrestleMania 25. this will be epic and not just a regular match. I could see all the McMahons come out during the match and all attack Orton and maybe Rhodes and DiBiase but the McMahons beat the crap out of them and Triple H will bring the sledge hammer into the match and wack orton with it. Maybe, but i doubt it, but Batista will get involved to get back at Orton for punting him. In the End, I see Triple H standing Tall still the WWE champion with the McMahons in his corner raising his hand. It could be the start of 1 of the greatest alliances in WWE.

Oh hell yeah it will help him. The McMahons have been involved in numerous storylines over the years where they were at each other's throats. This could set up a lot more Triple-H-Shane McMahon matches as well as set up a possible future where Triple-H is the on screen owner of the company. We know that he can do it as he has done it before so for him to be recognized as a McMahon would be even greater now than ever before.

For newer fans it doesn't make any sence but for attuide era fans it fits so perfectly.

Does anybody remember October 2005 the so called Season premere of Raw when Vince Mcmahon introduced HHH to Stephine? -for supposely the first time ever- Then the next time they are seen together is on Raw Feb 2009.? WTF

However for attuide era fans, they remember 10 years ago when Triple H took Steph away from her boyfreind Test. Then later came together as the heamly/mcmahon era.

So, it's a stickey subject......

In my view, i would of got Stonecold to help the mcmahon family. -To beat a Viper get a Rattlesnake- That would be fun....with a possiable match going into WM. Orton/Austin, or Orton/Austin/Edge for WWE championship.

As has already been pointed out plenty in this thread, they have mentioned it since then, heck in a promo last year Trips gave a coy wave to Steph and turned to HBK and said aww come on they sure as hell know!

But onto subject...I think it's going to open a world of possibilities for his character, the way I can see it going for the time being is the very intense Triple H we've seen before, yeah gold's on the line, but family is more important. He will fight tooth and nail for Stephanie, and seeing an intense Triple H once again will be great.

[GameOver]

What will it do? WHAT WILL IT DO?! I'll tell you what it'll do, it'll collectively make every I.W.C. Triple H. hater's head spontaneously combust. They won't have any more secret smark knowledge of something that's never been a secret to begin with. They won't know how to react in seeing the guy they wanna hate so much for his personal life relationship, actually playing out a Main Event storyline, about his personal life relationship!

In reality for the rest of us, it'll do absolutely nothing except create a very great reason for Triple H. and Randy Orton to reenter into yet another feud between the two of them, for a purpose other than to bore the living shit outta us.

I honestly hope they do this right though. No half assing it, no trying to beat around the bush about it. I want Triple H., next Monday Night on Raw coming out and flat-out being the pissed off Husband each and every male would be, if their Wife had just gotten laid out like Orton did to Stephanie.

I don't think any self-respecting man in this world, with a Wife, would react any differently than what we're all anticipating and hoping Triple H. will react with. That's flatout aggression, anger, and vengeance. Rules and "scripts" thrown out the window. NO "match" involved. Just a pure encounter between a prick, and a very pissed off, loving Husband.

If anything, THIS will help evolve Triple H. even more in his career. It'll add another layer to the already greatness that he's become.

What he said.

The relationsship has been common knowledge since the attitude era. And lost count of the amount of times Trips has made referecnes to it.

Only thing that kinda makes no sense is how come now, after all these yrs he finally decides to intervene on the McMahons behalf

And are they also then gonna say that the whole divorce bit was just a storlyine and the repeated McMahon vs McMahon and DX Vs McMahons was all in good fun, when it clearly coincided with Triple H and Stephanie being husband and wife????

Anyway, it opens up a lot of questions storyline wise but as for the OMG factor, absolutely nothing.

Just might be now that we have two GM/Superstar combo's as Husband and Wife combo's at the top of there repsective shows. and somewhere down the line, like at SummerSlam Vickie/Edge Vs Triple H/Stephanie. OK that was jsut rediculous LOL
