Is it just Vince trying to prove something or does he think that bringing it back with inprove his failing ratings?
D-X in their day were brilliant. I enjoyed watching them and they did some outragious things but they shouldn't be brought back. The had a brief revival in 2000 but died out shortly afterwards.
The thing is the Vince has already destroyed the legasy of one ot the greatest factions in wrestling history and he looks set to do it to another.
And lets face it, nWo were a far superiour faction to D-X they controled WCW for a time and had all the belts and had their own PPV and had more impact on the history of wrestling than D-X and they couldn't cut in in the WWE. Mostly due to Vince McMahon trying to prove that they couldn't and giving them poor storylines and never truely giving them the power they needed to suceed.
D-X stand more of a chance than nWo simply because this is the WWE and D-X was Vinces brainchild in the First place, but they still wont be good enough to last.
But Vince is trying to give D-X a chance. He has already paid them more attention before the reformation than he did to the nWo when the reached the top of their WWE career before Wrestlemania X8
The founding fathers of D-Generation X, Shawn Michaels and Triple H split apart during the Attitude era, but after watching the Vengeance press conference, it almost seemed as if they never broke up. The defiant duo never skipped a beat and was up to their same old sophomoric hijinx, wreaking havoc on the entire press conference.
RAW backstage announcer and HEAT play-by-play man Todd Grisham had the unenviable task of trying to lead the proceedings, but DX tried to make that task impossible, making him their favorite target. Grisham was hit with a barrage of schoolyard tactics such as the classic wedgie and everyone’s favorite – the wet willie.
The raucous crowd at the Charlotte Bobcats Arena kept egging the degenerates on, and they were thanked with a special mooning from The Game. Unlike when Mr. McMahon was greeted with the same gesture last night on RAW, the Charlotte crowd roared with approval at the press conference.
During the event, Triple H and Shawn Michaels said that they used to perform their juvenile antics because they had nothing to lose. But now they have a different reasoning.
“We’re not going to do them because we have nothing to lose. Now, we’re going to do them because we’re rich biatch, and we don’t care,” said Triple H. “We’re going to do what we want to do, when we want to do it, and no one’s gonna tell us any different.”
Even though DX was all about fun and games today, they did sing a different tune when it came to their match at Vengeance. Triple H got down to business when it came to matters dealing with the Spirit Squad.
“The Spirit Squad’s only been here a short time, and we’re going to give them something to experience that they have never experienced in their lives before – the ass kicking of a lifetime,” said Triple H. “We’re going to send a message to Vince McMahon and everyone else in the WWE. It’s a simple message – it’s just two words – Suck it.”
DX is back together, but the relationship between Triple H and Shawn Michaels has been well-documented and has been all over the map. They’ve been the best of friends, but they’ve also been the worst of enemies. But according to The Game, they’ve always had one thing in common.
“Shawn Michaels and I have always been tight. Sometimes we’ve been fighting side by side, sometimes back to back, sometimes face to face, but there’s always been a common bond between us, and it’s always been where we started, and that’s DX,” said Triple H. “Last night was weird – it kind of felt like being a part of the Beattles. To be able to come back out there and do that and get that reaction was cool.”
