Are you Ready?? These are the famous Lines HHH used when he would come out to the ring with D Generation X. D-Generation X is a well-known stable in wrestling history. A stable is a group or faction. Triple h and The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels were the co leaders of D Generation X.
In 2019 this faction ended up getting into the WWE Hall of Fame including HHH HBK, Chyna New Age Outlaws and XPac.
They were heels meaning they broke the rules and did things their way and were booed at first until the fans love them. They were one of the most popular factions over the years and ended up being a huge part of the attitude era.
Another segment used computer graphics to make it appear as if Triple H had flown over the arena where WCW Nitro was taking place and wrote "WCW Sucks" and "DX Says Suck It" in the sky.
DX expanded after Michaels' departure to include The New Age Outlaws tag team, who had often affiliated with the stable prior to joining.
The group also feuded with the new Corporate Commissioner, former DX leader Shawn Michaels, who had turned heel and betrayed the group after costing X-Pac a WWF Championship match against The Rock.The faction would continue to feud with Michaels and The Corporation throughout late 1998, with Michaels reversing Billy Gunn's Intercontinental Championship victory against Ken Shamrock, costing The Outlaws the Tag Team Titles and even managing to seemingly lure the New Age Outlaws to The Corporation on the December 7 episode of Raw Is War. However, the Outlaws quickly revealed this to have been a ruse, turning on The Corporation that same night. When The Corporation turned on Michaels in January 1999, he was taken in by DX once more. This too was short lived, as later that night DX were instrumental in Michaels being ambushed by The Corporation, with X-Pac commenting "What goes around, comes around".
What goes around, comes around".
Some of the group's most memorable promos were their parodies of their rivals. On July 6, 1998, DX carried out the first of these segments, where they mocked and parodied The Nation, with Triple H mocking The Rock as "The Crock"; Road Dogg playing the part of D'Lo Brown as "B'Lo"; Billy Gunn as The Godfather; X-Pac as a parody of Mark Henry, going by "Mizark"; and comedian Jason Sensation as Owen Hart. On December 14, 1998, they would turn their attention to The Corporation with Triple H again appearing as "The Crock"; Road Dogg playing Mr. McMahon (with two midgets representing Gerald Brisco and Pat Patterson kissing his behind throughout); Billy Gunn, playing Shane McMahon wearing an adult diaper; X-Pac playing Ken Shamrock; Chyna as The Big Boss Man; and Sensation returning to play Michaels.These parodies would also be resurrected during the fourth incarnation. X-Pac's parody of Mark Henry was seen as highly controversial due to him being in blackface (unlike the rest of DX); X-Pac would admit on his podcast in 2018 that it was one of his biggest career regrets despite having Henry's blessing to be in blackface.
Chyna being the official woman in this group was a badass. She was a bodybuilder and is considered the 9th Wonder of the World and is an intercontinental champion in her own right.
