Paul Levesque and Stephanie McMahon News
Can you believe it has been confirmed that Stephanie and Paul are dating in real life? It still feels like a dream to me! Very cool! They are the PeRFeCT pair, dont ya think? Well I will be posting any and all news on the couple here!
01.08.01 Yesterday morning on the Howard Stern radio show Triple H admitted to his relationship with Stephanie McMahon, saying he has been dating her for about a year!!! For full report head over to WrestleScoop.com~~~~~
12.21.01 It was reported recently that in this week's National Enquirer tabloid, there is a controversial article about Joanie Laurer, who everyone knows as the former Chyna. Towards the end of the tabloid it states how Chyna was never re-hired by the WWF because, according to Chyna, the WWF "wasn't big enough for the 3 of us," regarding to Chyna, Triple H, and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. According to the article, Chyna was suspicious of Triple H cheating on her with none other than Stephanie and suspected Triple H took the angle too far.
When Chyna confronted HHH, he left and Chyna looked in Triple H's suitcase. In the case, she found love letters from Stephanie to Triple H dating back to a year. Then, when Steph, Chyna, and HHH all went to Vince, Vince said he thought HHH and Chyna were over, so he fully supported his daughter's and HHH's newly found relationship. When Chyna asked Steph what was going on, Steph simply said,
"Paul [Triple H] and I just deeply care for each other."
11.10.01 Chyna did an interview and when questioned about her relationship and breakup with Paul Levesque she had a lot to say, "Landsberg asked Laurer if Triple H's relationship with Stephanie forced her out. Not initially but eventually, it did. She was devastated when she found out that they were an actual couple and because it was with the boss' daughter, it was a tough dilemma. She felt that it had a hand in her downfall in the WWF. She felt she did the best she could and despite what happened, she continued to work hard and would have continued.
Laurer wishes that Stephanie would have handled things differently. She said that neither Hunter or Stephanie spoke to her about it. But she felt that her and Triple H were drifting apart with Chyna doing more outside things. But despite it all, she wishes Stephanie well. She isn't bitter though and it didn't change her view of the business.
Landsberg pointed out that Chyna played a big part in Triple H's rise to the WWF. Laurer only feels personal bitterness towards the breakup and not professional because they were both succeeding.
She thinks she would have handled it better if it were anyone else but Stephanie.
>Landsberg asked her about Stephanie. She thinks she hasn't found herself yet and is a bit immature but it isn't her position to judge. She doesn't blame Stephanie for the breakup, she blames Triple H. Landsberg pointed out to Laurer that she is coming off as bitter as far as the breakup of her relationship with Triple H goes and his subsequent getting together with Stephanie."

Chyna`s Interview w/Stepping Out Magazine
Did that have anything to do with you leaving the WWF?
No. It was very difficult for me, but the rumors are true. If you want me to be more specific, that's okay too. But I think my main objective has always been my career. And in spite of what happened between me and Triple H, I walked in and held my head up high every day at work. I did my job 110 percent, and I fulfilled my contractual obligations and I knew that my personal life was a separate issue. Whether I feel that it was handled correctly or incorrectly, or whether it was right or wrong, I had a job to do. What happened behind the scenes is something that, by looking at my face, you would have never have known. I would never let something that happened to me personally affect my career. I got into wrestling when I wasn't with Triple H, and I left the same way. I will continue to be a success without him.
So whose heart was broken here? From what you're telling me, I get the feeling it was your heart that was bodyslammed to the mat.
My heart was absolutely broken! (Ashley`s Note: Hehe, Steph & Paul FOREVER!)
Isn't there a no-date policy with other wrestlers at the WWF?
No, but I believe this, I don't think there's anything wrong with dating the people you work with, because those are the people who you're around every day. You can't pick what happens. I think there was a certain point in time when Triple H and I were wonderful for each other. It worked very well. I have no regrets. I think he got so involved in this business that he started to fall out of love with me and started falling in love with Stephanie McMahon [the daughter of WWF founder Vince McMahon]. He was surrounded 24 hours a day with his storyline and what he was doing on television, and that's what he lived for. That's insane.
That's also what she lives for. The only thing I can say now is that we've all moved on. It sucked when it happened. But now I can say that maybe it's best that the two people that love the business the most are together. The truth is, it will be great for business.

Chyna: My Love Triangle
Wrestling queen tells Star of her romance heartache

Former World Wrestling Federation star Chyna has been smacked down by a shocking love triangle! In an exclusive Star interview, the brawny fighter admits she was devastated when her wrestling co-star and boyfriend Triple H left her for WWF owner Vince McMahon's daughter Stephanie, who helps her megarich dad run the organization.
"I'm being honest - Stephanie broke up our relationship and it hurt me very much," confides Chyna, who's real name is Joanie Laurer. "I have to deal with that." The tough gal, who recently split from the WWF, says she and Triple H - real name Paul Levesque - were in a five-year live-in relationship until sexy Stephanie, 24 started playing his wife in a WWF scenario.
"I was suspicious that they were having an affair," reveals Chyna, 30. "I confronted them and they admitted it." But the confrontation didn't turn into a violent showdown because, in real life, Chyna insists she's far softer than her WWF character. Although she was shattered by the news, "it wasn't a heated thing because that's my personality," the Playboy covergirl says with a shrug. "Of course it hurt and made me feel terrible. I'm a human being. But once I knew what was happening, I moved on."
Chyna admits she had hoped to walk down the aisle with hunky Triple H, 32, who stands a towering 6-foot-5. "I very much thought he was going to be the man I was going to marry," she sighs. "We were with each other every day, 24 hours a day. Everything we did revolved around wrestling. I think I grew and wanted different things, and it caused problems. And as I grew, there was Stephanie McMahon!"
"It doesn't surprise me in retrospect that they hooked up, because Paul is a guy who lived, ate and breathed wrestling, and who else did I think he would be with but Stephanie McMahon?" The statuesque wrestler claims her split from Triple H didn't have anything to do with her recent break from the WWF. Chyna, who stands 6 feet tall and can bench press 300 pounds, says Vince McMahon simply made her an offer she COULD refuse.
