10 Most Memorable Stephanie McMahon WWE Moments

1. The McMahon-Helmsley Era Begins

Triple H drugging and then marrying an unconscious Stephanie McMahon, before implying that they 'consummated' the marriage, was a little bit gauche, wasn't it? A little uncouth. 

Steph was rightly upset about the whole affair, while Vince was positively furious and vowed to make The Game pay when the two met in their No Holds Barred main event at Armageddon 1999. 

The two battled for thirty hellish minutes, before Stephanie intervened. At first, she took a sledgehammer away from her dad, but lost her bottle when it came time to hit Hunter, who used the opportunity to do so himself to Vince and win the match. 

After, it looked as if the Cerebral Assassin would take revenge on Steph, before dropping the weapon and hugging her instead. 

Yes, it had been a setup all along, an intricate plot to take over WWE. Which they did, really, for a while as the McMahon-Helmsley Era began in earnest and the two of them dominated WWE TV for months after. 

This was a huge turning point for Stephanie and the start of an alliance that would have major ramifications both onscreen and backstage.
