9 Next Steps For Triple H

That being said, if Triple H and Steph have been colluding once more, that doesn’t mean they’ll get off scot-free. The two-pronged authority structure of a Commissioner alongside a General Manager means that Steph can no longer abuse her power without some kind of direct repercussion.

Raw General Manager Mick Foley will likely have something to say about it, and we even saw the beginnings of Foley rebelling against Steph’s iron fist in this week’s showing of Raw. After Steph had attempted to suspend Seth Rollins, Foley stepped in and his cooler head prevailed in rewarding Rollins with a title match instead of a spell on the sidelines.

If Foley continues to show such a backbone, and Steph does indeed end up aligning with her husband, then presumably that’s going to be more than enough to fuel some friction between Triple H and Foley.

Personally I think this would be a pretty intriguing course of action, not least because of the epic history that these two share from their days standing across the ring from one another. Now, that in-ring rivalry could be set to spill out into the world of kayfabe management.
