Stephanie Marie McMahon was born in
Connecticut, NY on the 29th September, 1976, the youngest daughter of
Vince and
Linda McMahon.
After a childhood growing up around
wrestlers and the
wrestling business, it was no surprise that the beautiful and intelligent baby girl of Vince McMahon would enter the game herself. She was first spotted in
WWF publications modelling
Hulk Hogan and
Rockers merchandise in the late '80s before disappearing out of the spotlight. Stephanie spent the time learning her trade under Mom and Dad, and the avid WWF viewer would have spotted her sitting alongside
Pat Patterson in backstage segments of
Beyond The Mat or fleeting glances of her on
PPVs.
After gaining a degree in Communications from Boston University, Stephanie was working in
Titan's advertising department when Daddy came calling and told her she was being written into the McMahon soap opera as a full character. As described above, she was the victim of the
Undertaker and the love interest for
Test, before becoming one of the top five performers on the WWF roster as the megalomaniacal wife of
Triple H.
The
McMahon-Helmsley Era and in particular Trips and Steph themselves presided over the emotional end of
Mick Foley's career, the elevation of
Chris Benoit and
Chris Jericho to the upper echelons of the WWF roster, and of course the red-hot
HHH-
Kurt Angle-Steph love triangle
angle :)
After HHH tore his
quadriceps while teaming with
Steve Austin against Jericho and Benoit, Stephanie gave an emotional interview showing her (rumoured to be legitimate) loving concern for her man, before disappearing from our
television screens.
Until the 9th July 2001. At the climax of the most shocking
markout episode of
RAW ever, Stephanie was revealed as the new owner of the resurrected
ECW. Alongside
Paul Heyman, her brother
Shane and the massed ranks of
WCW and ECW wrestlers, she led her charges to victory in the first ever interpromotional WWF-WCW-ECW
pay-per-view,
Invasion, welcoming none other than WWF Champion
Stone Cold Steve Austin into the
Alliance faction.
After the WWF defeated
the Alliance at Survivor Series 2001, Steph was banished from TV duties but remained as head of the creative team. In July 2002 she returned as the new 'General Manager' of
Smackdown (ostensibly as a
babyface) and began a bidding war for the talent roster against her nemesis,
Eric Bischoff, the GM of
Raw.
For those of you that are interested in Steph other than her wonderful history, she stands 5'9" tall and weighs 135 pounds. I'd be willing to bet on her being a
36C, but it's the
hair and the
face that does it for me. I'd sure give anything for her to be as nasty with me as
Y2J speculates she is...for what it's worth,
Pat Patterson himself has said that she was 'pretty wild' in her college days - and insider gossip has suggested that she makes a perfect match for the openly-
kinky Paul 'HHH? XXX surely!' Levesque (who has gone on record as stating he likes his girls very
dirty indeed). I'll give you all a full report when I finally capture the
Billion Dollar Princess's heart.
15th August 2001: Steph appeared on the syndicated NYC radio show Opie & Anthony yesterday, on which she stated that she had in fact had breast implants, a move that was provoked by her seeing signs in the WWF crowds suggesting that her breasts were sagging. She refused to comment on whether she got them to please her man, HHH, but did comment that she is under doctor's orders to massage them regularly for the coming weeks.
