The two most powerful men of WWE
The two most powerful men of WWE

When it comes to WWE, there are two men who hold the maximum power -- Vince McMahon and Triple H. While Triple H may not possess the kind of authority that Vince McMahon enjoys, but he still is a major figure behind the scenes and has a call on a lot of important things.

Triple H and Vince McMahon go way back. From on-screen rivalries to real-life relations, the duo has a lot of history between them. WWE enthusiasts believe Triple H to be the heir to Vince McMahon's throne once the chairman decides to call it a day. Triple H is undoubtedly a worthy candidate to run things around and if his work with NXT is put into context then it is safe to say that WWE will be in pretty safe hands with Triple H at the helm.

Looking at the aforementioned names, it makes us wonder as to how might a fantasy 5-on-5 matchup look like, featuring superstars of Triple H's liking against Vince McMahon's. Here we try to form Team Triple H and Team Vince McMahon comprising their respective favourites:


#5 Team Triple H: Kevin Owens

Kevin Owens came through the ranks of NXT. The ardent followers of the promotion will agree to the fact that Triple H has put a lot of trust in Kevin's potential which is why his time with NXT turned out to be a major hit. Owens impressed 'The Game' with his dynamic aura which in turn led to his successful run on the main roster.

Not to forget, Kevin Owens' Universal title victory was down to Triple H interfering in the Fatal-4 way match on Raw which also featured Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Big Cass. Kevin is one of the most talented superstars around at the moment and it makes us all understand as to why Triple H gave KO a chance to shine!


#5 Team Vince McMahon: Bobby Lashley

Bobby Lashley is the picture-perfect example of a Superstar whom Vince McMahon would prefer to have on board. Strong, muscular and in other words what a champion might look like.

Lashley is currently in his second run with the company which has seen him become a 2-time Intercontinental Champion. He was also seen alongside Lio Rush who used to accompany Lashley to the ring and was given the role of hyping Lashley's imposing physical attributes.

Bobby Lashley ticks every box to be referred to as Vince McMahon's guy.

#4 Team Triple H: Drew Mcintyre

Drew Mcintyre is one of the most promising Superstars on the roster and WWE enthusiasts do think of him as the star of tomorrow. From physical appearance to brute strength, McIntyre has it all! While things might seem all smooth at the moment, McIntyre parted ways with the company due to lack of progress a few years ago.

The Scottish Psychopath then made a return years later with NXT being his first destination upon returning to the company. Drew has since revealed that it was Triple H who convinced him to return and rest as they say is history.

Triple H saw a lot of potential in Drew McIntyre which is why the Scottish Psychopath enjoyed a stellar time with NXT before moving to the main roster where he impressed many with his in-ring prowess.

With Drew McIntyre in The Game's squad, things just got a bit tilted in Triple H's favour.

#4 Team Vince McMahon: Baron Corbin

Not many Superstars have enjoyed as much TV time as Baron Corbin in recent times and it is quite clear that the company sees something special in him which explains his transformation from a shirtless street fighter to a well-suited authority character.

In WWE, mic skills play a huge role in making a Superstar and it won't be wrong to say that Corbin knows the art of talking pretty well. He was the selected to be Raw's Constable which saw him work alongside Kurt Angle.

The two later culminated their feud at WrestleMania 35 in a Singles match which he Corbin won. Vince McMahon is known to be a big fan of tall athletes and Superstars who have the ability to cut a nice promo. Hence, Corbin has been the recipient of a long-running push.

#3 Team Triple H: Sasha Banks

Sasha Banks has had an eventful time with the company and there have been quite a few instances in The Boss' career which can be termed remarkable. Banks is a 4-time Raw Women's Champion and she also won the inaugural Women's Tag Team Champion alongside Bayley.

Things started for her at NXT where she caught the eye of many with her series of stunning performances. Banks is a former NXT Women's Champion and her reign was nothing short of spectacular in WWE's yellow brand.

Triple H has showered praises for Sasha Banks on one too many occasions and The Boss too has had some kind words for the game. Sasha's journey with the company has been like a roller coaster and Triple H has surely had a lot to do with it. Triple H appreciates in-ring skills which is why Sasha Banks managed to enter Hunter's good books.

#3 Team Vince McMahon: Charlotte Flair

One of the greatest women's champions of all-time, Charlotte Flair has followed her father's footstep in building her own legacy. She is a 9-time Women's Champion which places her on the top of the all-time list. Charlotte Flair has a lot of accolades registered to her name and looking at her current fitness, there might be many more to come.

Charlotte Flair has been a Vince McMahon favourite for a long time and many reckon this to be linked to the fact that her father is a Hall of Famer who is the greatest of all time in the eyes of many but that doesn't take away the fact that Charlotte Flair is a supreme athlete who has been a key member of the Women's revolution.

The number of opportunities presented to Charlotte Flair suggests that Vince McMahon truly believes in her and it won't be wrong to say that she has stood up to the expectations.

#2 Team Triple H: Finn Balor

Not many men in the company can boast of matching Finn Balor's athletic abilities which is why the Superstar from Ireland finds himself on this list. Balor shares a special bond with Triple H from his NXT days as the two worked closely behind the curtains which has helped the 'Demon King' transform from a prospect to a major superstar.

The energetic Superstar was one of the most adored superstars back in the day and his in-ring skill set caught Triple H's eye who has a developed an affection towards skilled performers.

Finn Balor had a tremendous debut on Raw and ended up winning the Universal Championship a few weeks later, only to drop it the very next day due to an untimely injury.

The Irish superstar has competed alongside Triple H on few live events and WWE Enthusiasts will believe that their chemistry is inspired from their real-life bond.

#2 Team Vince McMahon: Roman Reigns

The 'Big Dog' Roman Reigns has been an outright Vince McMahon guy for a long time. The former Shield member has enjoyed a great amount of success within the company and despite failing to win over the WWE Universe, Reigns still managed to headline numerous PPVs because Vince McMahon sees something special in him.

Reigns' long list of achievements surely guarantees him a position in the Hall of Fame someday as he has literally done it all from winning the Royal Rumble to numerous World titles. Vince McMahon is quite convinced that he is the guy who'll be the alpha star of the company for years to come which is why the 'Big Dog' has found himself in the bigger picture quite often.

Roman Reigns has a plethora of achievements but it won't wrong to say that Vince McMahon has made his intentions pretty clear when it comes to Roman Reigns' position in the company.

#1 Team Triple H: Seth Rollins

'The Architect' Seth Rollins will lead the charge for Team Triple H -- courtesy of their mentor-protege bond. It hasn't been all spring for Rollins in the company but Triple H has always believed in him which is why the reigning WWE Universal Champion finds himself at the pinnacle.

What the Beast Slayer has common with all the other Triple H favourites is the obvious NXT connection as the current Universal Champion started his journey with NXT and later went on to form one of the greatest factions of all time alongside Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns, together known as The Shield.

Seth Rollins possesses great mic skills and his in-ring attributes need no introduction which is why Triple H has invested so much into Rollins as The Game believes that Mr Rollins has what it takes to be the poster boy of the company.

#1 Team Vince McMahon: Brock Lesnar

Is there any doubt on this? Vince McMahon is a huge Brock Lesnar fan which is why the Beast Incarnate enjoys such a status within the company. Lesnar does not appear full-time and hardly ever competes away from the PPVs but that doesn't dampen his position within the company, something which points to the fact that he has the chairman on his side.

Lesnar is a major attraction owing to his long list of achievements and athletic abilities. Hence, Vince McMahon has been adamant in letting Lesnar depart fro teh company.

WWE Universe has apparently fallen sick of Lesnar's tantrums but the chairman of the company doesn't agree to it which is why Lesnar is time and again returns to action despite ardent followers' dissent.

Brock Lesnar has been rumoured to leave the company on quite a few occasions but with Vince McMahon at the helm, it looks extremely unlikely!
