LATEST ON JERICHO VS. HHH

With Stephanie McMahon being put in the Walls of Jericho on this week's episode of Raw, the WWF is clearly building toward a big stipulation match between Chris Jericho and Triple H at WrestleMania.

One of our sources says that creative will announce the stipulation this week on SmackDown. Original speculation suggested that Y2J and The Game would face off in a ladder match, however with a potential 'Tables Ladders Chairs 2' on the cards, that idea has been nixed.

It is worth noting that Triple H has competed in two Hell in a Cell matches - meaning that he would have an advantage over Jericho within that environment. Though it will be hard to follow the six-man action of Armageddon 2000, these two could bring the stipulation back to its one-on-one, personal roots. It would certainly be something if Jericho could retain his title in the cell - especially considering Hunter's experience.

As well as fuelling the intensity of the feud, Stephanie's injury angle has also allowed her to take time away from the screen and work behind the scenes. Though nothing has been confirmed, it would appear that Stephanie is being more strongly involved in business behind the scenes. It is thought that - if Triple H is to continue being a main event star - he needs to fly solo and prove he can hang without a manager or valet in his corner.
