name=Stephanie McMahon-Levesque

Backstage Roles

In addition to her on-air character, Stephanie (like others in Vince McMahon's immediate family) is deeply involved in the business operations of WWE. She began her backstage work as a model for merchandise items before progressing to working in the WWE advertising department. In 2000, she became one of the individuals chiefly responsible for the creative direction taken by the television programming. It is widely believed that Stephanie is being groomed to replace her father when he retires or passes away along with real-life husband Paul Levesque, who is better known as Triple H.

The efforts of the creative team, headed by Stephanie since 2000, have often been criticized. Stephanie has been accused of favoring her husband, Triple H. She is also unpopular as a result of unsavoury angles containing elements of necrophilia and rape. This criticism intensified when, in 2003, she removed Paul Heyman from his position as head writer of the SmackDown! brand (Heyman is popular among smarks, who largely enjoyed his tenure as head writer).
