10 Reasons Triple H Just Won WWE Royal Rumble 2016

3. Vince And Stephanie

From 2002 - 2004, Triple H was pushed as Champion when he didn't really deserve the belt. What kept him in the spot, was his close friendship with Vince McMahon and relationship with Stephanie McMahon. They love him, literally. That same situation is true today. If Vince wasn't Hunter's father in law, if Stephanie wasn't his wife, do you really think he would be winning a WWE Title Royal Rumble off the back of only one match in a year? No. Just like his political peak a decade ago, connections are paying dividends for The Game. There's no doubt he is a phenomenal pro wrestler, but there is doubt if he'd be winning the Royal Rumble at forty six years of age if it wasn't for Steph and Vince.
