Undoubtedly the number one power couple in the wrestling world, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon have the grappling world at their feet. It's common knowledge that the husband and wife duo look set to take over full control of WWE once Vince McMahon steps aside, and even to the most casual of outsider following the WWE product, noticeable changes have taken place since Triple H gained increased power. Smaller, more in-ring focused performers have been introduced to main events once again, and NXT has become a crown jewel of WWE's programming schedule. A lot of that is seemingly down to Triple H, who likely has grand plans for WWE's future. Stephanie herself doesn't seem like a woman who will stand idly by and watch her man do all the work. A self-confessed workaholic, Stephanie has inherited a lot of the qualities which have made her father a success. On-screen, the pair have appeared as The Authority, a storyline designed to play off their increasing influence behind the scenes. Years ago, many pointed to Shane McMahon as the likely benefactor to inherit the WWE empire, but that doesn't seem very likely as we roll into 2015. Triple H and Stephanie are best-placed to gain full power, and seem to be the ones Vince trusts most to take his vision forward. What other couples exist under the WWE umbrella? Are there any you feel could be as powerful as the ones on this list? let us know in the comments section below!
