D-Generation X - Who cares?!

[Guest Da Showstoppa]

A DX return will open up all kinds of merchandise - plus just look at the response the crotch chops and teases keep getting on Raw recently. It's smart booking and therefore it's good. I don't think D-X will split acrimoniously now, I got a feeling that the D-X angle will be HBK's fulltime swansong as it's heavily rumoured he's going part time like Taker has. Be a nice closure if Trips and HBK finally parted on terms.

With ya 100% there!!:thumbsup

 

Also, was i the only one that rated the radicals as a stable?

 

 

Not at all, I LOVED the Radicalz. But anything with Benoit, Eddie and Deano Machino was gonna be great.

[Guest Nemesis Enforcer]

I am with all those who said DX returning is a bad idea, Vince does not need more money, as it is WWE makes enough to keep it going strong for many many many years so making more money should have nothing to do with it!

 

Vince cannot turn around and say the share holders etc are putting pressure on him to make money because they simply can't be, they make fortunes like he does and if that was the case why is he wasting his money signing anyone and everyone who will never be used

 

DX is a bad idea done for the wrong reasons, its old and stale and if it did come back it would not last long before people got fed up IMO

[Paul 584]

Dx will make a shedload of money in merchendise in the short term and neither HHH or HBK will be harmed by it. Therefore its a good thing for WWE.

[Guest DOB]

I'm split 50/50 on this one.

 

On one hand i want to see one of the greatest stables ever get back together and give us something entertaining.But on the other hand HBK & HHH were at each others throats in 2002 and 2004 with both of them saying they HATE each other,now i know that was just a storyline but are we as fans supposed to wipe our memories and forget it?

 

Another thing HBK is a man who said he was a small bit uneasy about turning heel because of his beliefs,then how is he supposed to turn into a foul mouth,crotch chopping degenerate?

[Guest remi MPW]

Right on

 

If we can have a Hogan nostalgia trip once a year, we can have a DX nostalgia trip too :)

 

I'm looking forward to see how they do it. The place is gonna go INSANE when they finally pull the trigger, but as long as it is a small-term deal, I'm excited. With ECW coming and DX coming too, I'm loving RAW right now... bar last night.

 

Dam right why should the TANGO man get a run out whenever he wants a pay check just cus he was good 20 years ago. D-X for a few weeks for a final send off will be a bit of fun thats all!

[Fidel Cashflow 130]

Who cares?

 

I do. I started watching WWF in the DX era, and was so punped back in 2002 when they teased DX coming back.

 

Now. with the perfect build. HHH going slightly face, and HBK waging war against the McMahons, it's a perfect time.

 

Also Belty, if you look at it from a kayfabe standpoint instead a snarks one, it makes perfect sense. HBK is going anti-establishment and is doing what he pleases, and HHH is fading into the heel/face gray zone where he doesn't abide by any rules set by his character or the fans.

 

Just to hear "Are You Ready.........................BREAK IT DOWN" again is going to make me a silly little mark all over again.

 

NWO 2002 wasn't that bad, they were actually damn good until Wrestlemania.

If people are wondering how Triple H and HBK can get back together after they were at their throats.

 

Well, history has shown that at times people join forces when they have the same enemy.

Because Hogan comes in for a short term deal, does his thing and buggers off again, DX isnt going to be a few weeks or a "final sendoff" as you put it, its going to be a full time thing according to everybody reporting it. Hardly a bit of fun, is it?!

Kayfabe is dead mate, sorry. WWE cannot expect people to abide by the rules of kayfabe when they see fit all the while running shoot angles on TV which make kayfabe a complete joke. That being said, even if kayfabe were still in full effect, regardless of HBK turning anti-establishment and HHH not wanting to abide by the rules, why does that automatically make it sensible to portray two guys who were killing each other for two solid years best buddies all-of-a-sudden? Its stupid. Edited May 9, 2006 by Paul

You could say the same thing about Rock/Mankind, Austin/McMahon, Austin/HHH, Undertaker/Kane, etc. Triple H and Shawn Michaels teaming up again would be no different from any of those.

[Guest Nemesis Enforcer]

I said it before and will again to all those on about 2 guys hating eachother then suddenly best buddies

 

People forget this is WWE! how many times have things happened that have no explination at all :D

[Guest The Beltster]

In ALL those cases, we were given crystal clear, sensible reasons why those guys were teaming up. What reason have we been given as to why DX is reforming? We havent. HBK starts doing out-of-date crotch chops, then HHH starts aswell...wow, great reason. Now, I'm sure eventually we will be told it will be because they are battling a common enemy in Vince right? ok there, that makes sense, but we never were told why HHH turned face or why Vince stopped bowing to his demands, right? Its stupid, another example of WWE not explaining their actions.

 

Another thing that bugs me is HHH's face turn, HHH was turned face by the fans for no other reason than they hate John Cena and would back almost anybody who was facing him, thats a fact. So many people are convincing themselves that HHH is hugely over and all this other rubbish, sorry, I dont buy it. Wait until they move Cena away from HHH and see how long he keeps the fans interest, wont be long I can guarentee it. Dont get me wrong, HHH's current little run has been entertaining, but it wont last, just as it didnt in 2002.

[Guest Breakdown]

Yes' date=' it is different, its much different. In ALL those cases, we were given crystal clear, sensible reasons why those guys were teaming up.[/quote']

Like what? I sure as hell cant remember any logical reason given for all those guys suddendly becoming team mates.

[Guest Thirteen]

NWO 2002 wasn't that bad' date=' they were actually damn good until Wrestlemania[/b'].

No disrespect but that's because you are too young to remember the original impact that it had on wrestling in '96,'97.

The originality of nWo was something that had never EVER been seen, done or dare I say it even thought of back then.

And that is something that you can never recreate for more then say the first nostalgic ten minutes before it becomes stale(DX included in my opinion).
