Was this the most cringeworthy "run" in wrestling? It was fucking embarrassing and made worse by the fact that they were feuding with the Spirit Squad for half of it. They also buried Rated RKOs team at Survivor Series without losing a single member, literally what was the point of this?
Sell merch
draw dimes (which they did not)
Fuck you, I loved them. Then again I was twelve at the time.
DX Generation Part Duh are still more interesting and more charismatic than todays indie manlets and dweebs like Le swing man and yeah yeah yeah retard

This run was basically something to keep HHH on the roster without him having to make too many commitments. His kids were really young at the time. It was also when he started to take on more of a role in booking and running things.

I actually enjoyed the 2006 DX run more than the Original DX run

DX in general was a cringe as fuck attempt to keep up with the NWO. no amount of revisionist history will change that

They might have been okay if their power-level wasn't so massively high. They only ever lost on PPV once which was Rated RKO and was a very screwy finish.
They likely would have taken the tag titles at New Year's Revolution until Triple H busted his quad - I'm sure an audible was made to prevent the title change because everyone knew Triple H was fucked.
Wait. They brought back DX? Lmao. They were already old enough the first time they were around.
>>2256055
Blending the original DX with Triple H's DX is weird to me.
To cash in on Attitude Era nostalgia. Remember, this is around the same time WWECW came around.

Twice. They re-returned in 2009/2010 and had a tag title run.
But at least that time they had a pretty good feud with Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase Jr. early on.
>>2256556
Best answer.
It was one big shit on one of the things that essentially MADE the Attitude era. Tarnished legacy as fuck.

The GOAT really lives up to his title.

This. If you rewatch old DX segments you'll think "holy shit, this was their answer to the nWo?"
>>2256030
The 2009 run was worse
>>2256030
Better than the original DX. Sold more merch, drew more dimes and had better matches.

If you were 10-15 at that time, you fucking loved DX and you know it
Also saying they feuded with the Spirit Squad at that time isn't really true They were feuding with the McMahons. They literally put the Spirit Squad in a box with "Return to OVW" written on it.

He didn't even mention DB you autist
>>2256044
He didn't get a backstage job until 2010, and this was just something to keep him out of the title scene until he won the 2007 Rumble and beat Cena at Mania, but he tore his quad and missed it.

>Hogan cut shit promos
stopped reading right there, his promo at BATB and the night after got more heat than 98% of wrestlers do in their entire careers alone
>>2258003
You're insane, Hollywood Hogans promos from that era aged like fine wine while the "LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING BROTHER JACK DUDE! AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED BROTHER THE MULTI MILLION DOLLAR MAN IS GOING TO FEEL THE WRATH OF HULKAMANIA TONIGHT DUDE" aged like fucking milk
>>2258007
This. I hate nearly everything about Hogan, but his early NWO promo's were gold.
>>2258003
>nash was a shitty booker
you mean when the nwo was pretty much dead? plus it was either him or "in over my head in red tape" eric bischoff
DX and Cryme Time is still funny
