The reformation of DX (as a two-man outfit of founding members Shawn Michaels and Triple H) in June 2006 was met with great initial enthusiasm. The pair cut "edgy" (as "edgy" as they could go in a post-attitude era, kid friendly promo requirements), impersonated Vince and Shane McMahon, spray painted their name on the boss' private jet, and foiled the Spirit Squad at every turn. It sounds like tremendous fun, but quickly became tedious. Back in the Attitude Era, DX legitimately pushed boundaries with their risque promos and infamous antics. Their 2006 incarnation seemed like a tame imitation, and their stunts quickly started to grate. Skits such as dumping foul-smelling waste on opponents can be fun once in a while, but shouldn't be the basis of an entire gimmick. Therein lay the other major flaw with the DX reunion. Cena's unstoppable rise had fuelled criticism of his inability to put over anybody else, preventing younger stars from establishing themselves. Michaels and Triple H were just as bad in this regard, if not moreso. They utterly crushed the Spirit Squad several times, a group containing future main-roster talents Dolph Ziggler and Kenny Dykstra, preventing fans from seeing their opponents as anything other than a joke. The return of DX may be one of the most divisive entires on this list. Many will fondly remember it as a feel-good summer angle of dominant babyface wins and nostalgia, but it took up a lot of television and Pay Per View time which could have been used to put over a few of the new generation.
