D-Generation X has had a number of members over the years and the group went on to have some of the most memorable moments in WWE history. The time that DX invaded WCW was perhaps one of the highlights of that era of wrestling and boosted the group's popularity.
DX were so popular during their time together that they reunited back in 2005, even though it was just Triple H and Shawn Michaels who reunited so that they could cause The McMahon's several issues.
The group has reunited on WWE TV several times since then, with many of the original members making their return. It's been 20 years since the original D-Generation X disbanded though, so what has happened to the group's original eight members?
Trending
#12 from WWE's DX - Mike Tyson
Interestingly, even though Mike Tyson is better known as a boxer than he is a wrestler in WWE, he was seen as a special enforcer for D-Generation X for the WrestleMania main event where Shawn Michaels took on Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Tyson would turn on DX at the end of the night and cost Michaels the match, which later worked into the storyline where Shawn Michaels was forced to walk away from WWE due to injury.
Tyson's life outside of boxing has been wrapped up in controversy, but he has been part of a handful of matches since his appearance back in 1998. Interestingly, he returned to the wrestling ring back in May when he was part of All Elite Wrestling's Double or Nothing event.
#11 from WWE's DX - Tori
Tori didn't join D-Generation X until a few months before the group disbanded, but when the former star started an on-screen relationship with X-Pac and began accompanying him to the ring, she was added to the group.
Their relationship was just a side note in the story of DX, since Tori was mostly embroiled in the storyline between X-Pac and Kane. After slapping the taste out of X-Pac's mouth for allowing her to be powerbombed through a table at King of the Ring, Tori was no longer associated with the group.
The following year, Tori asked for her WWE release so that she could concentrate on her career as a yogini. The former WWE star has since opened her own yoga studio in Portland.
Back in 2018, Ring The Damn Bell noted that Tori's yoga studio is now a Wellness Center where she offers her clients nutritional advice as well as Cryotherapy and many other treatments to help full-body fitness. It was also noted that Tori no longer makes wrestling appearances and next year will mark two decades since the former WWE star retired from the business.
#10 Jason Sensation
Jason Sensation isn't a name that easily rolls off the tongue nor will be memorable to WWE fans who were not around for the one night that the star was added to D-Generation X.
Sensation joined the group for one night since it was clear that he was good at impersonations. This was the night that DX did their legendary impersonations of The Nation of Domination. Sensation played the role of Owen Hart and pulled it off very well, even though it was a one night only deal.
Sensation made a few other appearances on WWE TV throughout 1998 and attended a WWE event back in 2018 where he threatened to commit suicide on Twitter; his account was then suspended. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the star who rose to fame through his impressions has since stepped into an acting career.
#9 Hornswoggle
Hornswoggle became the most recent WWE star to be added to the group when Triple H and Shawn Michaels reformed back in 2006. The reunion lasted until 2010 and some of the comedy skits called for a third member, which led to Hornswoggle joining.
Hornswoggle is the only star to be added to the group following their split back in 2000 and it could be argued that he was only made a member to add to their comedy value against Vince McMahon.
Swoggle was later drafted to WWE SmackDown which ended his association with DX, before the former Cruiserweight Champion was released from WWE in 2016. The star has since appeared at a number of rival promotions, but returned to WWE back in 2018 for The Greatest Royal Rumble match and later as part of the 2019 Women's Royal Rumble match.
Most recently, Hornswoggle was part of Ring of Honor in December 2019 where he was disguised as "Mini Delirious."
#8 from WWE's DX - Rick Rude
Rick Rude made his return to WWE back in 1997 where he became one of the enforcers for D-Generation X. Since the star was never needed to wrestle, instead, he just stood at ringside and was there to be intimidating.
Following The Montreal Screwjob back, Rude watched the events unfold in the WWE locker room before opting to move to WCW. At the time, the Ravishing star wasn't contracted to WWE and was working on a pay-per-appearance basis, which meant that he was free to leave.
Rude went on to wrestle for WCW until March 1999, but in the following month the star was found unconscious by his wife and died on April 20th, 1999. It was later revealed that he had died from "an overdose of mixed medications," aged just 40 years old.
#7 from WWE's DX - Chyna
Chyna was one of the original members of D-Generation X from the earliest days of the group since she was working as Triple H's on-screen girlfriend at the time.
Chyna's main role was to be the bodyguard of DX and help Triple H and Shawn Michaels to win matches by cheating. Throughout her time in the group, she was part of a storyline with Mark Henry and later went on to become the first female to be part of a men's Royal Rumble match.
After splitting with Triple H and leaving DX, Chyna went on to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship as well as the WWE Women's Championship before leaving the company in 2001.
Chyna later went on to appear in NJPW and IMPACT Wrestling, where her final wrestling match would take place at Sacrifice in 2011.
The former WWE star was found dead on April 20th, 2016, by her manager, Anthony Anzaldo and her autopsy revealed that she died as a result of an overdose of alcohol and anti-anxiety medication.
Chyna was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019 as a member of D-Generation X.
#6 from WWE's DX - Road Dogg
Alongside Billy Gunn in WWE, Road Dogg was one half of The New Age Outlaws, who joined D-Generation X the night after WrestleMania back in 1998.
Whilst the two stars were part of DX, they were mostly part of tag team matches and won five Tag Team Championships during their time together. After Gunn's injury forced him to be expelled from DX, Road Dogg went on to team with X-Pac but the team didn't find much success.
The duo eventually split and after a brief feud, DX entirely fell apart and Road Dogg was released from WWE in 2001. The former Tag Team Champion went on to wrestle for IMPACT until he returned to WWE in 2011.
Road Dogg has since worked as a producer backstage for the company and makes sporadic appearances on-screen.
#5 from WWE's DX - Billy Gunn
As stated above, Billy Gunn joined DX alongside Road Dogg the night after WrestleMania back in 1998 but was expelled from the group a few years later when he legitimately tore his rotator cuff back in 2000. WWE needed to write the star off TV so he was expelled from the group for losing his temper.
Billy returned to TV the following year and worked alongside Chyna, before stepping into a story alongside Chuck Palumbo. Gunn was released from WWE back in 2004 and went on to work for IMPACT.
The star returned in 2012 and reunited with former New Age Outlaws partner Road Dogg where they were used regularly as part of the Raw Tag Team Division. Gunn was released by WWE again back in 2015 but returned for the DX reunion in 2018.
Gunn signed for AEW in January 2019 where he works as both a producer and on-screen talent. Last night, Gunn was part of the Casino Battle Royal at All Out.
#4 from WWE's DX - Triple H
Triple H was one of the founding members of D-Generation X and has been linked to the group throughout his WWE career. The group was formed in 1997 and the original four were Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Chyna and Rick Rude.
When Michaels suffered a back injury and was seemingly forced into retirement, Triple H took over the leadership of DX and brought in X-Pac and the New Age Outlaws.
D-Generation X was short-lived following Shawn Michaels' retirement and Triple H went on to be known as The Game where was pushed to the top of the WWE roster and by January 2000, was a three-time WWE Champion.
Triple H has remained part of WWE over the past two decades and is now a 14-time World Champion, married to Stephanie McMahon and the man known as The Godfather of NXT.
#3 from WWE's DX - X-Pac
Triple H added X-Pac to D-Generation X the night after WrestleMania back in 1998 and his girlfriend Tori became part of the group by default.
Before he became a member of DX, X-Pac had already made a name for himself in both WWE and WCW. His time in DX was shortlived, but he was part of the reunion in 1999 after their temporary demise.
Following his time in DX, X-Pac was released from WWE in 2002 and has since worked for several other companies including IMPACT, Chikara, and AAA. The former star has also had a number of real-life personal struggles throughout his career but returned to WWE back in 2011 for a number of appearances.
X-Pac is now a two-time Hall of Famer after being added to the group as part of The New World Order and D-Generation X. The New World Order are set to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame at some point in the near future when WWE is able to hold the ceremony.
#2 from WWE's DX - Shawn Michaels
One of the founding members of D-Generation X, Shawn Michaels' career took quite the turn when he legitimately injured his back as part of a match against The Undertaker at The Royal Rumble in 1998.
Michaels was forced into a four-year retirement which at the time was thought to be the end of The Heartbreak Kid's career. When Michaels returned to WWE in 2002, he became a member of The New World Order and began a feud with Triple H.
This was the beginning of a lengthy friendship between Michaels and Triple H which has led to both men rising in the company over the past two decades. Michaels is a four-time World Champion and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame back in 2011, after opting to retire following WrestleMania in 2010.
Michaels has since made a number of appearances on WWE TV but for more than eight years he refused to wrestle again, until Crown Jewel 2018 when he teamed with Triple H in a victory over The Brothers of Destruction.
At present, Michaels works backstage in WWE and is one of the men currently overlooking the production of NXT UK. Michaels recently appeared on Monday Night RAW where he was punted by Randy Orton.
#1 from WWE's DX - Stephanie McMahon
Stephanie McMahon is perhaps one of the most popular female wrestlers in the history of WWE. The boss's daughter made her WWE debut when she was just 21 years old and has since been connected to WWE over the past two decades.
When Stephanie McMahon and Triple H married, McMahon was added to the group and it's thanks to DX that she was able to win her only Women's Championship. Of course, the storyline with Triple H and McMahon continued following DX's demise and the WWE COO has since gone on to become part of WWE's biggest power couple.
McMahon is now a mother of three and is technically still the commissioner of Monday Night RAW whilst still making sporadic appearances on WWE TV. It could be argued that McMahon is the most successful former female member of the group.
