If you count the whole of 2008 as one comeback, that's still DX coming back more often. And if you count the different incarnations of one group as being multiple revivals, I'd say DX still has that. You had Shawn, Chyna, Triple H, Rude... then Rude left, then Shawn left, X-Pac, Billy Gunn and Road Dogg joined... then the second time they were a group, Billy Gunn and Triple H both left individually, leaving X-Pac and Road Dogg as DX... etc.

The difference is that the last nWo incarnation was in 2002. The WWE has been milking DX for over 12 years now.

TNA should create the Nude World Order.
What's Dennis Knight up to these days?

TNA should create the Nude World Order. What's Dennis Knight up to these days? Good excuse to bring the Booty Man Ed Leslie back into the fold. As for the nWo/DX debate. I count nWo Japan as part of the main nWo group and when Hollywood and Wolfpac united, I consider that a new group instead of a splintered nWo Elite and B-team. In the WWE, I only count 2 teams; with Hogan and post Hogan. nWo: 7 teams With DX, however, I don't see a with Rude and post Rude type team as I do with nWo and Hogan so it's still one team. DX: 5 teams

I don't think DX's main problem was multiple incarnations after multiple incarnations, it's that they still trot them out like GaTech said. We're expected to equate a pair 40 year old guys at the top of the company as the same anti-establishment faction they started a decade ago. 6 years is a long time to keep a group dormant then try to revive it with the same ideals.

I'd mark for it, just to see the hissy fit that Verne and Greg Gagne would probably throw.

WWE owns it. Think they also own "The Outsiders". Poor Ponyboy TNA will still call them the outsiders THEY ARE GOING TO DO IT FOR JOHHNY!!!
