Shooting Straight: D-Generation X

[Lardlad]

The next Shooting Straight panel is going on with D-Generation X right now. From the photo I saw, it looks like they have Road Dogg, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Billy Gunn and X-Pac all there, but the actual panel is just Triple H and HBK.

Arda Ocal (@arda_ocal) is tweeting live from the event, as he did earlier with the "Montreal Screwjob panel. Tweet highlights below:


Michael Cole and Shawn Michaels pulling Shooting Straight Panel double duty. #DXPanel

"A friendly reminder that this is the PG era" - Michael Cole to HBK/HHH. #DXpanel

The "presidential address" promo was in response to an actual letter sent by USA network with those exact demands. #DXPanel

HHH/HBK show "best of Michael Cole being picked on by DX" video. Say in that shower promo Rick Rude actually beat Cole with a shoe. #DXPanel

Origin of DX crotch chop - in Europe, kliq used a generalized term to tell someone off (point to crotch) and morphed from there

HHH said there was an idea after Mr. Perfect left him for WCW for Honky Tonk Man to be paired with him. He didnt like that idea. #DXPanel

HHH tried to talk HBK out of attending the WM14 post event press conference but he didn't listen, went on a tirade and quit. #DXPanel

HHH says Xpac wasn't fully signed until day of WM14. He returned next night on RAW. #DXPanel

All of DX (@realbillygunn @wweroaddogg @therealxpac) out now. #DXPanel

HHH says XPac complained about the DX Nation parody calling it "stupid" all day, didn't want to be Mark Henry. But loved it after. #DXPanel

Re: DX invades WCW: Vince upset Nitro starts hour earlier, HHH: "I wish we could crash a tank into their show", Vince Russo: "we could!"

HHH says in hindsight during the WCW invasion segment they would have tried to get into the building first. #DXPanel

HHH said it was hard not to laugh during Nation parody. Had no idea Road Dogg would imitate D-Lo as good as he did. #DXPanel

Now showing DX parody. Hilarious line on commentary @jerrylawler: "Mizark, what's that mean?" @jrsbbq: "You knizow!" #DXPanel

Rest of DX members wanted to keep the group going when HHH decided he wanted to turn heel. #DXPanel

HHH talking Chyna, saying she was just as integral in DX's funny moments- like when she got breast implants and DX made it into a segment.

"She would fart as loud as Billy would. She took so much protein they'd smell as bad too" - Road Dogg on Chyna

Panel loosely poke fun at Chyna/XPac but then XPac puts her over: "there will never be another one like her". #DXPanel

HHH re: Kliq in WWE Hall of Fame - "never say never. Maybe" #DXPanel

HBK says the 4 years away from wrestling (98-02) were the greatest years of his life personally, despite loving the business. #DXPanel

Road Dogg says other than his brothers being in WCW at the time, he couldn't have cared less about WCW. #DXPanel

HHH says @miketyson absolutely loved being in DX, loved doing the crotch chop and kept "hugging us all the time". #DXPanel

HHH informs the crowd that Abraham Lincoln was a pro wrestler... But "he was horrible. He would do jobs." #DXPanel

HHH talks about Stephanie - before Vegas wedding angle on RAW, he hasn't said 10 words to her. #DXPanel

Royal Rumble question asked. HHH: "here's your spoiler: @michaelcole is winning it" #DXPanel

"Voodoo Kin Mafia" TNA question was asked. Road Dogg says "Russo was writing and we got paid weekly. Bad time in my life, bro!" #DXPanel

HHH says these panels at Rumble were a beta test and they will likely do them more often. Couldn't be happier to hear that. #DXPanel

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

Oh man, the butterfly effect there would have been if we ended up with A Hunter Hunter Burnin' Love instead of Rockabilly...

Just re-reading some of these highlights from last night and so glad to hear Triple H say that these panels will likely be done more often from now on.

Would be cool to see them do random panels like Lance Storm and Jericho talking about their careers, and countless other stories too.

The options are endless.

I'm probably being lazy here but are these being filmed/put out by WWE or anything? The highlights make it sound unmissable.

Chyna farting as loud as Billy Gunn? Now, there's something you want to read first thing in the morning

Arda, who was there tweeting, mentioned that WWE camera men were around filming. Not sure if it will be posted on WWE.com, or as part of a DVD or something, but it sounded like it will be released at some point.


Here is another shot from the DX panel when they were showing DX mocking the Nation on the screen behind DX:
