6. D-Generation X

All fun and games until they f*cking black up, D-Generation X's parody of the Nation Of Domination doesn't age at all well, but ironically was wonderfully-recieved in comparison to the New World Order inspiration from a year prior.

Poaching their Atlanta-mates' patter (after poaching Sean Waltman earlier in the year), Triple H and the gang bodied The Rock's villainous crew with a series of nailed-on impressions borne out of Vince Russo's impressive character-building that year. The divisive New Yorker had found his voice and his place in WWE's rampaging late-90s machine, crafting unique qualities for D'Lo Brown, Mark Henry, The Godfather and Owen Hart under the ultra-charismatic leadership of The Rock.

By creating characteristics and qualities for the underlings, he created things to mock, and the white hot neon green babyfaces went for the throat in each case. Road Dogg's D'Lo was the undisputed highlight, but each affectionate dig landed magnificently with the live crowd and justified a total decimation of the degenerates by their heel rivals in the ongoing turf war in the weeks that followed.
