Rick Rude, Chyna, Shawn Michaels, and Triple- The original DX
D-Generation X is regarded as one of the best factions of all time and is right up there along with the New World Order (nWo). The group became a mainstay for WWF during the Monday Night Wars and became very popular in the world of professional wrestling courtesy of their usual shenanigans which gave WWF a massive boost to their competition against WCW.

However, if it wasn't for the original DX trio of Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Chyna, then they probably wouldn't be as successful as they had been. Shawn Michaels was already a well-established name in WWF and the formation of DX along with his real-life friends Triple H and Chyna established them as a popular faction and also further helped all three of them become bigger stars in WWE.
The trio was mostly known for its notoriety against WWE management and their hilarious, sort of heel-ish antics was also loved by fans around the world. DX eventually added some of the biggest names in the business to their ranks but the original trio, along with enforcer Rick Rude, was one of the best factions in WWE history.
