Believe it or not, this entry does not involve a DX crotch chop and yelling “Suck it!”

D-Generation X was a revolutionary group that celebrated their wins in some extraordinary ways. But one particular post-match celebration really stands out as unique.

On the November 27, 2006 episode of Raw, DX teamed with Ric Flair to face the Spirit Squad in a 5-on-3 handicap match, which the legends won. Afterward, the male cheerleaders were stuffed into a giant crate backstage which was then sealed shut, revealing the stamp, “OVW, Louisville, Kentucky” – a reference to WWE’s developmental territory.

Yep, WWE was making a joke about sending the five rookies back to developmental at the end of their 10-month run on the main roster. And DX celebrated ridding Raw of the male cheerleaders.
