The WWE fans on Twitter remember one of the most significant factions of all time Degeneration X and their shenanigans. The group was known for their goofy segments. Triple H and Shawn Michaels often made fun of the former boss Vince McMahon, and his son Shane McMahon. This was from the 2006 reunion of the faction, which was relatively short-lived compared to the previous iterations.

Triple H and Shawn Michaels were prominent members of the DX. The faction mocked and roasted the bosses of WWE, as they have been doing since the 1990s. This has been the case since The Attitude Era, when they made fun of Sgt. Slaughter, Vince McMahon, and the authority. Degeneration X was one of the hottest factions back then.

During an episode of Monday Night Raw, Triple H and Shawn Michaels came out to the ring. They were dressed as Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon. As a result, it received a loud reaction from the crowd as the duo was feuding with the boss at that time. The former World Champions would mimic the father-son duo and make fun of their styles.

The four later clashed at the SummerSlam of that year and DX was victorious. The rivalry between the boss and the fun-loving goofs has been going on since the Attitude Era. The other members of DX also mocked the boss and his authority back then. Moreover, there were other superstars as well who were against Vince McMahon.

The faction included The New Age Outlaws, Chyna, and X-Pac. The iconic group has had multiple reunions in later years. The last time fans saw them was at the Raw’s 30th anniversary. All the members except Billy Gunn were present, as Gunn is now a part of AEW.

Triple H and Shawn Michaels have won the WWE Championships multiple times. They have been in the main event of WrestleMania, and won Royal Rumble a number of times. On the other hand, Billy Gunn and Jessie James have won Tag Team Championships.

Besides, X-Pac, went on to hold multiple titles including Tag Team Championship, Intercontinental Champion, and Hardcore Championship. The group was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2019.
