Line 13:
* [[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."}}
** When your catchphrase is "Let's get ready to suck it!", this trope is pretty much inevitable.
* [[Appropriated Appellation]]: [[Bret Hart]] called them a pack of degenerates, so they took on that name for themselves.
Line 45:
* [[Hostile Show Takeover]]
* [[WWE/Ho Yay|Ho Yay]]: Just look at the page. Though it doesn't get more blatant than Shawn and Hunter kissing in the middle of the ring and Hunter's response to the question of whether or not he was bilingual:
{{quote| ''I'm bi- a lot of things. Lingual ain't one of them.''}}
* [[Kick the Dog]]: One of the most cruel acts committed by DX was during the Thanksgiving '99 episode of Smackdown when they invited a group of homeless into the arena for a Thanksgiving feast. Instead of offering them the food, DX tortured the homeless people by waving food in front of their faces. Of course, the whole segment was [[Rule of Funny|played]] [[For the Evulz|for]] [[Dead Baby Comedy|laughs]].
* [[Merchandise-Driven]]: DX circa 2010 ran off of this trope, at least they made it funny.
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: All the damn time.
** On a segment posted on WWE.com:
{{quote| '''Hunter''': For the thousands in attendance, for the millions who, five minutes ago, were watching at home- *crowd boos* Guys, it's like, 11:08, we're off the air!}}
** The constant references to [[Stephanie McMahon|Triple H's real-life wife]] and him being the father of her children.
{{quote| '''Shawn''': Man, that baby looks familiar, but I just can't put my finger on it. *taps Triple H on the shoulder*}}
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Chyna, most of the time.
* [[Pirate]]: X-Pac certainly looked like one.
