Another unbelievable Vince McMahon story has surfaced, and this one comes from Stephanie McMahon and Triple H.

The Billion Dollar Princess grew up in the wrestling business as her father built WWE. In several interviews, the former WWE Chairwoman recalled her first encounter with George “The Animal” Steele backstage and told stories about being friends with Andre The Giant when she was a little girl.

During an episode of her “What’s Your Story? With Steph McMahon” podcast, in which her husband, Triple H, interviewed her before she was inducted into this year’s Hall of Fame class, The Billion Dollar Princess and The Game told another shocking story involving her father.

Stephanie recalled seeing photoshoots of WWE Divas such as Sunny and The Fabulous Moolah taking place at her family’s home. She then revealed that their dog, Tiger, was let loose during Moolah’s photoshoot and jumped on the photographer, biting him in the back of the neck.

The 49-year-old added that her father, Vince McMahon, thought the incident was “the funniest thing on earth.”

Stephanie: I’m not sure if we should say it.

Triple H: We shouldn’t say his name probably.

Stephanie: But I know his name.

Triple H: He’s taking pictures of Moolah by the pool.

Stephanie: So, he’s on all, like, you know, he’s bent over taking pictures. He’s working it.

Triple H: And they had a big bullmastiff named Tiger, who’s brindle tiger-striped, right?

Stephanie: Yeah, yeah. About 145 pounds.

Triple H: And they let Tiger out and Tiger proceeded to jump on the photographer and go to work. And he couldn’t do anything. Like, he was biting him in the back of his neck.

Stephanie: My dad’s words was, ‘He hooked him.’ But my dad telling this story howls. He thinks it is the funniest thing on earth. And the poor guy, now that’s some kind of lawsuit for sure. (laughs) But back then… [14:44 onwards]

Vince McMahon’s relationship with his children, Stephanie and Shane, has seen its ups and downs. However, in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the former chairman seemed to have a clear favorite, according to former WWE head writer Vince Russo.

In a recent interview with Wrestling Life, Russo noted that he personally witnessed how Vince McMahon treated his kids backstage, stating that the 80-year-old clearly favored Stephanie.

I don’t think so, bro, because Stephanie was always his favorite. I mean, there’s no question about that. I mean, I saw that upfront and personal. Stephanie was always his little girl and always the favorite. And Shane was the guy always having to prove himself to Vince. Always.
