Stephanie Marie McMahon was born into the McMahon Family Hartford, Connecticut to WWE Chairman Vince McMahon and WWE CEO Linda McMahon. In 1998 Stephanie McMahon graduated from Boston University and became an Account Executive at Titan Sports in New York, it wouldn't be long after that she began making World Wrestling Federation appearances. Her first WWF storyline came when The Undertake began stalking Stephanie in order to play mental games with Vince McMahon. On the April 29th 1999 edition of Raw, Undertaker ambushed Sable (Rena Mero) after a WWF Women's tag Match, distracting Vince in order to abduct Stephanie who was found by Ken Shamrock at the end of the show.
After being involved heavily in the Ministry vs. Corporation storyline it segued into a Test vs. Shane McMahon as Stephanie was involved in a love angle between her and Test. Test came out on top of the feud and the two were soon "engaged." On the September 20, 1999 edition of Raw Test & Stephanie McMahon defeated Jeff Jarrett & Debra w/Miss Kitty however the romance soon came to an end. On November 29, 1999's edition of RAW, Stephanie McMahon & Test were to have their wedding and Triple H revealed that he was married to Stephanie McMahon after he drugged her in Las Vegas. This infuriated Vince McMahon who challenged Triple H to a match. On December 12, 1999 at Armageddon on Pay Per View, Triple H defeated Vince McMahon after Stephanie McMahon turned heel on her father. This was the beginning of the McMahon-Helmsley Era.
During her time with Triple H, she took over Raw and Smackdown and ordered around many wrestlers and also took on a New look for the role. Soon after, Stephanie's father struck back by throwing Stephanie in a WWE Women's Title match against Women's Champion; Jacqueline (March 30, 2000 - Smackdown). Vince's plan of Jacqueline taking total domination over Stephanie during the contest didn't happen due to interference from Triple H, Tori, and the rest of DX. Holding the title for five months cheating to keep the title as well as disregarding title defense time limits. Lita above all the women was cheated out of winning the title on numerous occasions and Stephanie gained huge heat from fans. On the August 21, 2000 edition of RAW she lost it to Lita during the First ever History making Women's main event with special guest referee; The Rock.
After Stephanie's feud with Lita, Trish Stratus was next on her hit list. Stephanie and Trish were involved, in a very in depth feud over the love of Vince McMahon who was Trish's "Friend" and Stephanie's "Father". Stephanie's ties to Triple H started to deteriorate during this time, when Triple H was caught with Trish Stratus and Stephanie started to become very close with Kurt Angle.
When this feud ended, Stephanie disappeared for a few months and returned with Shane to begin the WCW/ECW Invasion. When the Invasion angle ended, Stephanie was assigned General Manager to Smackdown and dominated the show. Her most notable feuds during this time we against Sable and Vince McMahon. Upon Sable's return the WWE, she became Vince's love interest, and was assigned as Stephanie's assistant. It didn't take long before the two women were at each other's throats. The big match up to place on July 27, 2003, WWE's Vengeance Pay Per View when Sable defeated Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie later got revenge at SummerSlam by attacking Sable. The battle however was not won: October 19, 2003 at No Mercy, Vince McMahon beat Stephanie McMahon in an "I Quit" match when Linda threw in the towel, which ended her long time presence on WWE television as she had to give up her rights as General Manager to Smackdown.
