5 toughest ever opponents of Stephanie McMahon

#2. Stephanie McMahon vs Triple H

Triple H pinned his wife to retain his WWE Undisputed Championship in 2002

Stephanie McMahon has had many tough opponents over the years, but perhaps one of the toughest was her husband Triple H.

Triple H and Stephanie have shared the ring many times as partners. However, they faced each other only once. In March 2002, Triple H had to defend his WWE Undisputed Championship against Chris Jericho and Stephanie McMahon in a triple threat match on RAW.

The match came as part of a feud between Triple H and Chris Jericho heading into WrestleMania X8. In the storyline, Stephanie took Jericho's side and referred to themselves as "business associates."

Although the bout was supposed to be a triple threat, it was clear that it was more of a handicap match as Jericho and Stephanie worked together. However, they turned on each other mid-match after The Billion Dollar Princess attempted to pin Y2J. Stephanie and Jericho's miscommunication did not play in their favor. Triple H threw Jericho out of the ring before hitting his wife with a vicious spinebuster for the pin.

Triple H and Jericho headlined WrestleMania X8 as they battled for the Undisputed Championship with Stephanie standing in Jericho's corner. Once again, The Game successfully defended his title.
