DX is widely regarded as one of the best factions in wrestling history. At one point, they were part of a conversation that involved nWo, another legendary faction. The WCW stable had multiple iconic superstars at its helm, but that didn’t deter Vince McMahon’s trust in the Triple H-led team.
In an exclusive Sportskeeda interview involving Vince Russo and former DX stablemate Road Dogg, the former revealed the details of his backstage conversation with Vince McMahon regarding the faction. McMahon believed WWE had a “younger version” of nWo and assured that his younger talent could recreate an iconic legacy of their own.
Vince Russo also talked about the comparison between D-X and nWo. He told Road Dogg that things wouldn’t be the same if the WWE faction didn’t live up to the hype. He continued:

The former D-X member also recalled the anticipation surrounding a potential match between D-Generation X and nWo, but the two stables were not in their prime at the same time. Thus, a potential match would have been on unequal grounds.
Road Dogg used the same argument to explain why he no longer wants to see The Undertaker compete in a dream match against Sting - the WCW legend and current AEW star.
He also mentioned how there were multiple members added to the nWo, which could easily change the dynamic of any feud. Thus, it effectively ruled out multi-person tag team matches as WWE’s D-Generation X didn’t have enough members to take on the “outsiders”.
