A little disappointed at the lack of build. I was looking forward to the HHH & HBK team (Not necessarily DX 2002).

yeah how dare i think that gerwitz and the titan braintrust would bring back a dead gimmick at face value -- they've only done it about 20 times this year (so far).

i am not angered and appalled as is JR, because it was so god-awful and cheesy that i was about to kick over the TV and punch myself in the balls. thank you vince for not ruining a cool idea that outlived its prime by resurrecting it for a cheap pop.

o_O... Well, it's either do it now or build it up for months, Y2Disco. Hopefully they'll send Michaels packing as soon as this storyline's over.

I was refering to the fact that you had to post your complaint before the segment was even finished.

Seriously, if a telelvision program makes you that angry, don't you have bigger problems than DX coming back?

Triple H is now my favorite wrestler of all time.


Yes, I'm serious. After listening to Michaels (or his character, however you look at it) get carried away with the promo (Open note to Shawn Michaels: I think the Freebirds and Rowdy Roddy Piper might have something to say about your comment about being rebels before being a rebel was cool.), I really wanted to lay the smackdown on him. Fortunately, Triple H did it for me.


And open note to J.R.: despite the continuity problems with the relationship, there are a few examples that make perfect sense why Triple H did it:
+ The RAW after WM XIV - with his "HBK dropped the ball" promo
+ Michaels almost screwing him out of the WWF Title at Judgment Day 2000.
+ Michaels threatening him a week or two ago to join the nWo or else.
+ Because we never saw it coming. That's the kinda fella Triple H is. heh heh heh...

HHH is thinking before his beatdown: I knew Piper and The Freebirds. Bam Bam bless his soul. They got to sell T-shirts as bad guys before this punk Michaels ever did. Let me remind him of Jerry Sags.

I was just kidding. You should lighten up.

And hey, thanks for the observation on my timeliness, but is it anywhere near topic? Let's stick to the subject: I'm elated (and will refrain from punching myself in the balls for the time being) because the WWE did not reform DX tonight.

Thank you.

Well...

That has to be the shortest stable reformation in history, doesn't it?

I remember that DX came back for a “one-night-only” reformation in 2000. Triple H, Billy Gunn, Chyna and Road Dogg teamed up against The Radicalz. But that match lasted longer than last night's segment, I think. And it wasn't a reformation so much as it was a one-night-only gimmick.

Come to think of it, Triple H turned heel that night, too. Hmm.

Anyway... as much as I don't like Triple H, I thought it was cool when he Pedigreed HBK. An angle between the two would be interesting, but I shudder to think what would happen if they had a match at SummerSlam. HBK hasn't wrestled for WWE in four years, like he said, and there's a good reason for that-- his injury.

Triple H is already borderline cripple anyway [smirk]... so smell the workrate if these two were to have a match.

Or, in EWR terms: The crowd reaction would probably be very high, but the match quality would be poor, making for an at-best decent match.

I sure thought they hotshotted that sucker. Maybe they are worried about HBK's long-term viability in the angle, but HBK as HHH's manager really could've had some legs, especially if they drew it out long enough for HBK to cost HHH the title somehow before he turned.

Question: Who *is* the face supposed to be? Bischoff's a heel. HBK cuts a promo on him, so that would make him a face? But then he walks out, making him a heel? But then they come out as DX, so they're both faces? Then with no explanation HHH punks out HBK so...oh, my head hurts. Sometimes "shades of gray" are not good.

Edit: Evidently HHH is the heel. Okay.

I'd guess if they do HHH v. HBK at Summerslam its to replace the mega-match that would have been Nash v. HHH. If that is the direction we go, at least we don't have to deal with Shawn squashing the rest of the roster in a mega-push.

That role will of course go to HHH.

I think they could have milked the DX angle at least for another week judging by the pop those two got.
