5 best real-life stories about Triple H

#2 He asked for Taker’s blessing for Stephanie McMahon

Triple H married Stephanie McMahon in October 2003

As someone relatively new to the business, it was almost career suicide for Triple H to make advancements on the boss’s daughter. But he claimed he could not hide his true feelings any longer and wanted to act upon it.

After several interactions on TV between the two, Hunter developed feelings and plotted to ask her out. Scared about what the rest of the locker room would say, Triple H sought advice from the locker room leader, The Undertaker.

The Undertaker asked Triple H if Stephanie was worth the risk and if he could live with the backstage accusations. Hunter replied in the affirmative, and with that The Undertaker told him if he loved her, he should do what his heart says.

That blessing gave Hunter the confidence to approach Stephanie, ultimately leading to the formation of wrestling’s most famous power couple.
