At WrestleMania 22, Shawn Michaels and Triple H had the wrestling world buzzing as they both utilized the DX crotch chop in their respective matches. Nothing much came of it at first as Michaels continued to feud with Vince McMahon while Triple H remained in the WWE Championship hunt. Then, the former friends both found themselves at odds with McMahon and suddenly, after years of feuding with one another, they had reason to get the band back together. They did just that on the June 12, 2005 episode of Raw. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvcaa6YxmxU Triple H was in the process of suffering a massive beat down at the hands of the Spirit Squad when Michaels hit the ring and helped his former best friend clear the male cheerleaders out. They then stood face-to-face and, to the delight of the fans in State College, Pennsylvania, high-fived in a show of unity as McMahon. A few signature crotch chops later and the boss knew he was in for battle against two of the most decorated and celebrated Superstars of all-time.
