WWE legend Shawn Michaels spoke to Fox News Digital about the formation of the rebellious faction known as D-Generation X in the mid-1990s and the lasting legacy it created.
"It was heat, and certainly really early on it got what we still term today as ‘old school heat.’ Because the WWE is so entertainment based, a lot of the times now it becomes the idea of ‘I’m booing you because you’re a bad guy,’" he said."Look, we were having issues in some buildings early on where people were throwing stuff, and it got to the point where it got a little dangerous and, you know, we would just leave.
While Michaels and his DX cohorts were getting heat from the fans, those wrestlers with long legacies in the industry did not exactly like it either even as going against the grain proved to be a shrewd business move in the midst of the Monday Night Wars with World Championship Wrestling. "I get it because it just went against the traditional values and saying things that were really real and that’s just something you don’t do. This was all before reality television. If you did anything that wasn’t, you know, what everybody was wanting you to do, you were gonna get heat for it. We didn’t help the matter either by not informing people of what we were going to do. But at the same time, we were looking for real visceral reactions.
