10 WWE Storylines Let Down By Stupid Logic

2. Triple H & Stephanie Were In Cahoots All Along

Here's the deal: Stephanie McMahon got revenge on her dad for organising the aforementioned kidnapping plot (pre-"Higher/Greater Power" reveal) at Armageddon 1999 by turning on him to side with Triple H. It's a simple tale, and reads as thus.

Girl falls in love with guy (Test) > another guy enters the scene > other guy reveals that he drugged girl and married her in Las Vegas > girl is distraught and wedding to original guy is ruined > father vows vengeance > girl turns on father at pay-per-view to side with drug-giving deceitful guy > father is distraught > guy and girl form powerful McMahon-Helmsley Regime.

Got that?

So, Trips and Steph hatched a devious plan to make it look like he'd drugged her so she'd marry him in Vegas? Why would they need to do that? Why didn't Stephanie get back at her dad by siding with Triple H anyway and telling Vince he was a bastard? Wrestling is weird.
