Isn't this somewhat of a no-brainer?
And I'm not sure you can legitimately split them up into just those two. 1997-2000 had a lot of different DXes. Wasn't there a point when it was just Road Dogg and X-Pac?

I liked the original heel DX - face DX of 1998/some of 1999. Any version after that just lost all it's luster. Heel DX of 2000 sucked and 2006's was more of a novelty act more than anything.
I did get a few laughs during the beginning of 2006's run...but it eventually tired itself out with all the "Vince likes cock" jokes etc.

Ive liked every incarnation of DX,although I obviously have my preferences the same as everyone else.I know a lot of people didnt like DX 2006,but I still think it was cool to see 2 of the biggest stars,(one of which just came off a run as the Ultimate Heel for the past 7 years,suddenly turn full on face) come back together after all their years appart,and personally,although the humour was not as rude and crude as back in the day,I still loved it (then again,unlike the nWo,Im DX 4 Life,they are my favourite faction ever so I may be very biased).Plus,I think the fact that both HBK and HHH were sworn,arch enemies from 2002 until 2006 really added to the "My God,they're back" factor.But it was not me who voted for them by the way lol.

2006 DX was just awful IMO. To make matters worse the squashed everyone so no one got over apart from DX.

The best ever DX was the original- HBK and HHH, because no one had ever said or done the things they did back then, and no one had ever had heat like that, not even the nWo.

See, I voted for 2006 just because I didn't watch watch WWE/F before about 2004ish. I grew up a WCW kid, and got out of it just before they went under.
The original may have very well been better, but I wasn't apart of that...

I liked 2006 don't get me wrong. But they aren't touching 97/98 DX. 99/00 DX was horrible too.

Original DX by about 4 miles, last year's just about killed the entire groups legacy for me (especially the once great theme song)

Actually the nWo had way more heat than they did, DX was alright, but not really in the nWo's league as they seemed much cooler and not like a bunch of immature 15 year-olds.

I watched WCW and WWF growing up, I hate it when people make it seem like you must choose between one or the other.

See I'm not voting for this one because really, if you put the Original DX against DX 2006, I'm pretty sure the Original DX is going to win every single time. But personally I think all the versions of DX had their strong points and the weaknesses (although I always thought the heel DX of 2000 with Triple H as their leader wasn't really DX but a "Triple H and his buddies" kinda group). I liked the Original version because they were brash, they were funny and they didn't care who they pissed off. I also like the 2006 version because yeah, while they did squash a couple of people and it wasn't their entire material that was all that funny, HBK and Triple H seemed more of an actual team this time around and their friendship seemed much more present in this version than in the original version. And there was some funny stuff in there too, my favorite being their "Apology" speech.

I always thought of DX when Trips took over the first time was like when Scottie Pippen took over the Bulls when Jordan retired.
It was OK, but just not the same.

I liked Trips taking over DX better for some reason, like a new beginning of sorts.

come on, no version can even think of competing with the first version of DX...anything past wrestlemania XIV is just bland compared to the original!
