Is DX Still Really DX?

WWE now has a PG rating. I don't see how there can be a DX with a PG rating. This isn't the DX I grew up watching.

They are mild compared to what they were no question about it. I believe part of it and maybe a lot of it has to do with Shawn Michaels being a Born-Again Christian and Triple H being older. It's just that by name and just a tag team with Michaels and Triple H. It is not likely to expand a lot or at all.

I honestly don't see it sticking around too long. Mostly, it is just there for memories of the past just by name. That's just all it is anymore. It doesn't make it bad or anything. It is what it is.

mmmm, i don't know, they may make something of the DX going against the Legacy to finally beat them and show them who is boss. I would love to see that and have them say "sck it" to Legacy when they do it!!! For a tag team to beat Legacy it would be great for DX to do it.

NO!! They are alot calmer and not the same as they used to be. I know they are going to PG for the younger generation that is becoming, but I still miss everything from before they hyperness, the pranks, the picking, Stone Cold and The Rock generation. I miss all of that, though I am still a "true" WWE Fan, My son and I will still watch and see what comes about.

not just dx but generally the storylines in wwe are milder now than the wwe attitude era. kinda weak if you ask me but if wwe wants to keep the pg tag, they should be careful in what they show especially since the fan base of most of their popular wrestlers are children and young adults.
just my thoughts!
cheers!

how did they suddenly switch the cheers and boos. there opposite of what they were. its like the early 90s when they cheered the good guys so much. i got to wonder if they edit or mess with sound so the wwe heres the one they want to be cheered. the cheers for certain wrestlers just switched too fast. its now the good guy-bad guy angle like years back.

Well, I wasn't watching WWE then when the earlier controversial legendary DX used to entertain the crowds but now since they have won the unified tag team gold, they will be on both the shows of Raw and Smackdown, so I guess we will be seeing more of them in the near future!!

Every fan I've spoken to about this shares my opinion. Current "DX" (they don't even go by their full name any more) are an absolute embarassment, and Triple H / Shawn Michaels have ran what was once one of the most prestigious and memorable stables in WWE history through the mud
DX are now a joke, especially after that cursed Hornswoggle (WHY IS THIS IDIOT STILL ON TV) joined their ranks. Shawn and HHH have turned it into a laughing stock. Once, D-Generation X represented anti-establishment and rebellion, now they are nothing more than Vince's marketing shills, ready to plug whatever rubbish WWE churn out next, like DX Snuggies

I agree with you 100%. This new Dx is fn lame. Honestly im tired of the WWE shoving this new version down our throats. They need to turn Triple H Heel again, or make DX a heel stable that recruits two new young superstars. But I doubt The WWE will do that, because they are making big money selling Dx merch to idiots.

They haven't really been DX since they brought it back. They are just two middle aged men acting like they are teenagers, they need to realize they grew up...
