Guest SuperKick Kid Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Courtesy wrestleview.com Ever since WrestleMania 22 last month when Shawn Michaels and Triple H broke out the crotch chops, they have each been dropping DX references seemingly every week. It's no secret that the rumors are that WWE is planning on possibly reuniting the two wrestlers to again reform D-generation X. This should be taken as strictly a rumor at this point, as it is not confirmed that this is the plan. However, to add more fuel to the fire, WWE will be coming out with a special "DX Classic 2-Pack" action figure set featuring Shawn Michaels and Triple H this August. Take that for what you will. The figures, which will be exclusive to Ringside Collectibles at this point, can be seen by CLICKING HERE. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g209/ljl172006/rsc_hunter_shawn_both_small.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest horsemansmiler Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 that shawn figure looks great. It could be a sign but wwe has been making loads os classic superstar figures so it might just be that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrFill Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Look at HHH's legs - he hasn't worn leggings for YEARS, and I can't see him going back to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dickie Hyde Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Are you saying that's bad for the figures? They're classics! Meant to be in the past? And if your on about HHH switching back to leggings for the DX angle... he has no need to? Crotch chops with HBK will be enough im sure. (and in a DX shirt too! :D) Dickie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rawiswar Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Yes, the figures are based on the past so they are going to look like that - HHH with those leggings he used to wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Russ Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I don't think anyone expects that these figures are going to be accurate representations of the current looks for both guys. Hell, it's even called the "DX Classic 2-Pack". It's merely pointing out that it looks like WWE aren't averse to cashing in on the DX name, which adds fuel to the fire they'll bring the stable back. The Road Warriors DVD release coincided with the return of Animal to the ring, and it could be that this classic DX figure pack clashes with the return of the stable to WWE.

The Icon 152 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Shawn and HHH when they were in DX usually wore short trunks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph 93 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I doubt HBK ever wore trunks, ever...I may be wrong...and HHH grew into his trunks after WM15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Slim Jim Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Shawn used to wear those cycling short like things once in a while if that's what he means?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dickie Hyde Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Erm, yes but i'm pretty sure for the most part they both wore leggings? HBK with the X through the heart... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Icon 152 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Yes Slim Jim thats what I meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyndorf 389 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I don't think the decision actually lies with the WWE. Jakks, who make the figures, hold the license that means they can produce the official WWE action figures. Shawn and Triple H are both still on WWE's cards, there for Jakks are the one's who have cottened on to the DX pop's and decided to cash in.

DC 536 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Who in the blue hell thinks that they are leggings? Scummy women wear leggings.....those are wrestling tights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Thirteen Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Shawn used to wear those cycling short like things once in a while if that's what he means?! When in the blue hell did Shawn Michaels wear cycling shorts whilst WRESTLING full stop, let alone whilst in DX? And the only time Trips wore cycling shorts was about two years ago which he quickly got rid of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrFill Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 When in the blue hell did Shawn Michaels wear cycling shorts whilst WRESTLING full stop' date=' let alone whilst in DX?[/quote'] Not while wrestling, but he wore them last while refereeing a HHH match - I think it was the Iron Man match with the Rock, if my memory serves me. And come on DC, you know they're leggings, they're really just leg warmers from the 80's. :lol :lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
