Coming to Stephanie McMahon’s story, she never had it easy despite the popular perception. Being Vince McMahon’s daughter and Triple H’s wife, the audience immediately compared her to the others. In such a situation, she did everything in her power to ensure that women’s wrestling received the importance it deserved.
Ever since 1999, she has been a part of major storylines involving huge names like Kurt Angle, The Undertaker, and Triple H himself. On top of that, she has also appeared as the General Manager of SmackDown between 2002 and 2003.
