Triple H: Chyna Was The Glue That Held DX Together

Triple H gives Chyna her flowers for her role in keeping D-Generation X together.

Through the years, DX saw many changes and different members added and subtracted from the group to fit different eras and storylines. However, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Chyna were the three original staples of the group. When Shawn Michaels left due to his back injury in 1998, Triple H and Chyna expanded the group and cemented the legacy of DX in the Attitude Era alongside Billy Gunn, Road Dogg, and X-Pac.

Appearing on The Roommates Show with Brunson and Josh Hart, Triple H credited Chyna as the MVP of DX, calling her the glue that kept the group together.

"On DX, I would say Shawn, but there is part of me that would say Chyna. Shawn, only because, at the time when we first started and Shawn was in DX with me, I was learning so much from him on a day-to-day basis about the business. Chyna was the glue that held that together. If you look at the crew, I’m like the guy that doesn’t drink or do any other stuff, so I’m easy to deal with. Shawn is a mess. Road Dogg is a mess. X-Pac is a mess. Billy is a mess. The glue that sort of held that all together is Chyna because she kept everybody in line. There is only so much shit I can tell them and control them before they’re like, ‘F off,’ and we get in a fight about it. Nobody is going to give her a hard time, so whatever she says goes. She is kind of the glue there."

Chyna was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame alongside the other five members of DX in 2019. Sadly, she passed away in 2016.

Mick Foley is another Attitude Era legend who grew close to Chyna during their time together. Read his comments on her legacy here.
