Line 1: {{~~trope~~creator}} [[File:~~dx_3037~~dx 3037.jpg\|frame\|"If you're not down with this page, [[Triple H\|w]][[Shawn Michaels\|e]] got two words for ya..."]] {{quote\|''"[[Catch Phrase\|Suck]] [[Memetic Mutation\|it]]!"''}} [[D Generation X]] is a [[Professional Wrestling]] [[Power Stable]] that began in the [[Attitude Era]] of the [[Monday Night Wars]] (roughly late 1997) and ended in March of 2010, after ''many'' incarnations. It also has close ties to [[The Kliq]] (due to [[Real Life Writes the Plot]]) and the [[New World Order]] (in the sense that both stables were very similar in their [[Refuge in Audacity]] tendencies). Now, that's the boring answer. So, [[Catch Phrase\|are you ready?]], No [[TV Tropes]], [[Memetic Mutation\|I said ARE YOU READY?]] [[Ear Worm\|Break it down!]]. Ahem, D-Generation X exemplified the [[Refuge in Vulgarity]] craziness of the late 1990s [[~~WWE~~World Wrestling Entertainment\|WWF]]. It consisted of [[Shawn Michaels]], [[Triple H]], [[Stephanie McMahon]], [[X-Pac Heat\|X-Pac]], [[Chyna]], [[Breakup Breakout\|Road Dogg]], [[Demoted to Extra\|Billy Gunn]], [[Killed Off for Real\|Rick Rude]], [[And Zoidberg\|and]] [[The Chick\|Tori]]. [[Self-Demonstrating Article\|As you can see]], not every member of D-X was successful, but its legacy and the lengthy [[True Companions\|bond]] between all (well, most) of them changed the careers of everyone involved and in many ways wrestling forever. ~~----~~ {{creatortropes}} * [[Arch Enemy]]: The Hart Foundation, The Nation of Domination, and [[The Corporation]] were all enemies of DX in succession. * [[Animal Motif]]: The Road [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin\|Dogg]] even had a [[Furry Fandom\|anthropomorphic ]] representation of himself on some of his merch in the form of a [[Color Coded for Your Convenience\|green]] [[Amazing Technicolor Wildlife\|bulldog]]. * [[Ambiguously Gay]]: The entire damn stable. From where [[Seme\|Triple H]] stands in relation to [[Uke\|Shawn Michaels]] when they hit the ring to the [[Black Comedy Rape\|setup]] to Road Dogg's Pumphandle Powerslam to the random lips painted all over Billy Gunn's trunks along with his moniker of "Mr. Ass". D-X reeks of this trope. {{quote\|"You know and I know, that [[Shawn Michaels]] and his boy-toy Hunter Helmsley are the one responsible for all the problems right now."}} Line 21: * [[Crowd Song]]: "We got two words for ya: SUCK IT!" and these two for the New Age Outlaws: "Oh you didn't know?! Yo' ass better caaaaaall somebodyyyyyy!" (Even when it was removed from Road Dogg's entrance theme, the crowd would still do it.) "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, D-Generation X proudly presents to you the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions of the Wooooorld...The Road Dogg Jesse James! Bad Ass Billy Gunn! [[~~This~~Punctuated! IsFor! ~~Sparta~~Emphasis!\|THE NEW! AGE! OUTLAWS!]]" * [[Deadpan Snarker]]: [[Triple H]], hell, the main reason he got pushed was because [[Shawn Michaels]] thought Trips was hilarious, the audience certainly agreed. * [[Delinquents]]: Their major gimmick, due to [[Shawn Michaels]] and [[Triple H]]'s [[Real Life]] backstage hijinks. * [[Depraved Bisexual~~\|Depraved Bisexuals~~]]s: Hunter and Shawn most notably. * [[Early Installment Weirdness]]: The original, very brief, and easily forgotten DX incarnation featuring Rick Rude as the group Enforcer. This roster only lasted about three months before Rude split for [[WCW]] and famously appeared on Raw and Nitro on the same night. Soon after [[Shawn Michaels]] went on indefinite leave because of injuries, DX brought in Chyna as their new Enforcer and the New Age Outlaws as full-time members, evolving from sophomoric jokes and insults into the revolutionary "DX Army" incarnation they're best remembered for. * [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Shawn. Just - [[Two Words: Obvious Trope\|Shawn]], and to a lesser but still significant extent, [[Triple H]].
