Chyna was one of the biggest female attractions during the WWE’s Attitude Era. Her manpower and sheer strength were unique in the 1990s. The Eighth Wonder Of The World was in a relationship with Triple H in real life when he was involved in a romantic storyline with Stephanie McMahon.
Moreover, the couple played a vital role in winning the Monday Night Wars while in Degeneration-X. However, the Game soon leveled up to the main-event scene in 1999. Later, in a rivalry with Vince McMahon, he married his daughter, Stephanie McMahon. In a 2000 interview on the Howard Stern show, Chyna was asked how she felt about their relationship.
The former Women’s Champion thought that the Billion Dollar Princess was “great”. “She can make out with my man anytime she wants”, further adding to the situation. Chyna explained that it was business and didn’t affect her real-life relationship with Triple H. Therefore, clearing any sort of real-life “beef” between both women.
However, Triple H ended up leaving Chyna for Stephanie McMahon later that year. It turned into a real-life love triangle, which ended up with the DX member losing not only her boyfriend but her job as well. Chyna was finally inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019 alongside the faction posthumously after years of demand from the fans.
Why Stephanie McMahon left WWE
Stephanie McMahon was an integral part of the WWE for the better part of the past few decades. She was the Chairwoman and co-CEO of the company after her father, Vince McMahon, retired from his roles in July 2022 in light of the serious allegations against him.
However, her term was short-lived. Six months later, Vince returned to his post, citing his intentions to sell the business as a factor. Subsequently, he was voted back in as chairman, leading to his daughter being demoted. Stephanie McMahon instead resigned from the WWE, with the main reason listed as spending more time with her family.
Many reports, including the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, pointed out a hint of friction between father and daughter. With them stating that the billion-dollar princess was “heartbroken” at how her team was dismantled. According to a few rumors, Nick Khan and Triple H had to play the peacemaker roles to avoid any tension between the two.
