World Wrestling Entertainment: Wwf Champion
built 146 days ago
The National Wrestling Alliance was a group of promoters who each ran their own geographic territories and shared the same World Champion. Because the Northeast promoters became too powerful and were making it hard to get the champion, Buddy Rogers to appear in other territories, the other promoters pulled a power play and voted for Lou Thez to become champ, a wrestler they knew wasn’t too popular in the Northeast. In 1963, the Northeast promoters formed the World Wide Wrestling Federation. In one of their first matches, Bruno Sammartino beat Buddy Rogers to become champion. The most powerful promoters of this new federation were Vince McMahon Sr. and Toots Mondt.

Shortly thereafter the World Wrestling Federation was formed, and this led to a lawsuit from the World Wildlife Federation (WWF). Unaware animals are deadlier than humans, McMahon gave a challenge to fight for the name, which was accepted. This led the mangling and deaths of many wrestlers. Whom McMahon claims are no longer with the company because their contracts had expired. He quickly changed the name of the organization to World Wide Wrestling but was quickly sued by a very charismatic senator named Al Gore who had recently finished the creation of his interweb. Dejected and weary, he eventually renamed his new league World of Wrestling.

By January 2000, Triple H had dubbed himself "The Game", implying that he was at the top of the wrestling world, as well as "The Cerebral Assassin", implying that he was simply smarter than the other wrestlers. (He has claimed that "The Game" tag was initially conceived for Owen Hart.) He was already a three-time WWF Champion. His feud with Vince McMahon was not well-received... and even outraged fans after McMahon won the title from Triple H during an episode of SmackDown!. However, the short-lived feud started the Hunter Hearst Helmsley-Stephanie McMahon storyline that carried the WWF throughout the next seventeen months, and this period was known as the "McMahon/Helmsley Era".
