5 Ways Stephanie McMahon could affect the Triple H-Seth Rollins Feud
The one wild card in the recent events involving Triple H, Seth Rollins and the new Universal Heavyweight Champion, Kevin Owens, is Stephanie McMahon. The heiress to the McMahon throne could be caught between a rock and a hard place – or in other words her husband and the self-proclaimed unfulfilled champion in Rollins.
What McMahon’s role in this debacle, should you want to call it that, is unknown right now.
WWE pulled a fast one on all of us when Triple H emerged from the shadows last Monday night to put Owens over as the champion. In the process, he stirred the echoes of fans who have wanted to see a confrontation between mentor and pupil for some time.
The look of shock on her face was worth the price of admission alone as the company finally had a cliffhanger it needed to engage fans for the remaining three months of the year.
What is McMahon’s role and how will the woman who runs Raw balance the roles of wife and owner at the same time? How will her “angle” in all of this affect the outcome and who in the end wins the war now that the battle has started?
Some would say WWE needs to continue to put the foot on the throttle and treat this like some kind of invasion angle or an overthrown dictatorship. The fact Triple H was not there on Monday night to defend his actions left me and millions of fans a little empty inside.
You cannot make an impact like that and not defend your actions – that’s not how all of this works.
There are loose ends which need to be tightened up with the outcome of a Triple H-Rollins headliner in the works. If that is not the goal, all of this means nothing. With that in mind, how does the company keep McMahon active in this feud? Here are five ways she plays a pivotal role in its success.
