3 Times Triple H clashed with Vince McMahon and 3 times they got along

#3 DX hosts a grand birthday celebration for Vince McMahon (Triple H and Vince McMahon got along)

At SummerSlam 2009, DX (Triple H and Shawn Michaels) defeated The Legacy (Ted Dibiase and Cody Rhodes) in a Tag Team match. On the same night, John Cena failed to defeat Randy Orton for the WWE title. The next night on RAW, DX threw a huge birthday bash for Vince McMahon, who had turned 64. Triple H and Michaels left no stone unturned while arranging the bash. The hilarious segment saw Vince not being too thrilled with the celebration, which was interrupted by The Legacy.

This led to a Six-Man Tag Team match featuring DX and Vince McMahon, against The Legacy. In the final moments of the match, John Cena came out to make sure Randy Orton wouldn't leave without getting what he deserved. This led to the babyfaces scoring a victory over The Legacy to send the fans home happy. This was one of those incredibly rare moments when Vince McMahon and Triple H were on the same side.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
