On a desk in their room Stephanie bought Helmsley some flowers with a card, but HHH didn't know they're from Stephanie and he thought he was being set up, so he threw them against the wall in anger. Later Jericho challenged Hunter to a rematch(hunter won the last mad standing match from yesterday) and said that his match yesterday was his greatest ever, but Helmsley said even though Jericho put up a helluva fight, he proved that Jericho is nowhere near his league so he won't get a rematch, and replying to that, Jericho ran back to beat up Helmsley.

2002
July 22, 2002 RAW: In this time, the WWF is now the WWE.
The WWE is "split" into two rosters: RAW & Smackdown. Triple H was on the
Smackdown roster, and Shawn Michaels is on the RAW roster. The day before on a
PPV, Shawn convinced HHH to jump over to the RAW team for more fun. So tonight,
Shawn & Triple H came out in DX gear and to the old DX theme music. Hunter
started to do his old "Let's get Ready to Suck It" catch phrase, but at the end
he turned on Shawn and gave him the Pedigree, as seen below.
2006
April 2006-June 2006: From Wrestlemania 22 and continuing onward into June in RAW programming, Shawn Michaels and Triple H did little subtle references in their matches hinting towards the DX days via the classic DX crotch chops. Triple H gradually went from his usual serious self and more into a more fun joke-dropping guy like he was back in his DX days. This led to....June 12, 2006 RAW: Since HHH wasn't favoring Vince McMahon as much as he usually did Vince was starting to punish him by forcing him into handicap matches and failing in making him a member in his infamous "Vince McMahon kiss my Ass club." On this night, Vince ordered HHH to face the entire 5 man team of Spirit Squad in a handicap match. A month or so prior Vince did the same thing to Shawn Michaels and the Spirit Squad "injured" him in the process and Shawn was off television for a good month. Spirit Squad was about to injure Triple H in the process too, but Shawn Michaels ran out to make the save and both showboated with the traditional DX gestures indicating the band was back together.
June 19, 2006 RAW: WWE advertised this RAW to be the "official" DX reunion. Vince started off the show saying he was going to stop that from happening, but shortly into the show Shane came out saying his daughter Stephanie was going into labor and they needed to leave now. Apparently DX made the prank to get rid of the McMahons for the day (even though HHH is the legitimate father of the baby, that fact is not acknowledged on WWE TV). So Vince leaves his executive assistant, Jonathan Coachman ("The Coach") in charge for the rest of the show. DX proceeds to beat the crap and spraypaint Coach's ass. Later in the show they come out for their "official" reunion. They rundown their usual "Let's Get Ready to Suck It" and "Two words for ya" catchphrases. DX is billed for a match against Spirit Squad this Sunday at the Vengeance PPV, earlier in the show DX dumped green slime on them, and later a midget version of them runs in to break up the DX reunion. DX easily manhandles them as Spirit Squad watches in disgust as the show goes off the air.
June 25, 2006 Vengeance PPV: Shawn and HHH team up to beat the Spirit Squad in a 5-on-2 handicap match. They didn't really have that many problems in doing and proceeded to beat up the entire Squad after the match, as well as shoving on of the Spirt Squad's face in HHH's ass.
June 26, 2006 RAW: HHH and Shawn are scheduled to face Shane and Vince McMahon in a tag match, they come out to the ring dressed as the McMahons and do pretty funny impersonations of them. The McMahons then come out with the Spirit Squad to back them up and at the entrance ramp, shit falls down from the ceiling and drenches The McMahons and Spirtit Squad. This results in cancelling the match for the night.
July 3, 2006 RAW: Vince McMahon banned DX from the building. In a shocking turn of events DX actually obeyed Vince but they still managed to ruin the night for him. They started things off innocently enough by having a BBQ outside the arena with a bunch of girls. Since Shawn Michaels is a born again Christian they do antics to get him off camera for DX's raunchier gags. In this case, HHH told Shawn that Mr Fuji was around the corner to distract him so he can get some gals to flash a WWE truck driver. Later DX took over the WWE Production truck outdoors and messed with RAW's telecast. They did instant replays of Divas running down to the ring and throwing in sound effects when Vince McMahon was talking to get him aggravated and piss him off into leaving before RAW was even done. As he was leaving a gas bomb went off in Vince's limo and he emerged from his limo smothered in green powder.
July 10, 2006 RAW: McMahon invited DX to the building with open arms this week and when they came out McMahon attempted to throw a net down on them from above and missed. DX then laughed and ridiculed the McMahons for such a lame prank.
July 15, 2006 Saturday Night's Main Event: While Vince was giving a pep talk to the Spirit Squad, Shawn and HHH interruped mimmicking their interview as they all prepared for their 5-on-2 elimination match. DX easily disposed of all 5 members of the Spirit Squad within 7 minutes.
July 17, 2006 RAW: In DX's opening promo they shill their new shirts, and then they try and run house until Vince McMahon cuts him off. He books Shawn vs Shane for the main event. Right when Shawn was about to beat Shane the Spirit Squad runs in and demolishes both of DX until HHH evens things up with his sledgehammer and left DX standing tall at the end of RAW.
July 24, 2006 RAW: Triple H was gone for the night as was the McMahons to go to the hospital for Stephanie giving birth to her child (for the few who don't know, HHH is the father). So HBK comes out at the beginning of the show to explain the situation, but Coach comes out (recently titled RAW's executive assistant) and tells Shawn he will be wrestling the Coach himself tonight. Shawn demolishes DX until Spirit Squad interferes to no avail, but then the "Undefeated Samoan Bulldozer" Umaga runs-in and pummels HBK.
July 31, 2006 RAW: Shane & Vince McMahon come out at the beginning of the show to bloat about Vince's new granddaughter, and they announce that they will be facing DX in a tag match at Summerslam. DX comes out to interrupt, and HHH says while he was at the hospital he got the McMahon family album and showed several doctored photos Vince and Shane in baby form, and later one of the new McMahon child which was just Helmsley in baby form. Later on backstage, FBI agents busted Triple H for having Cuban Cigars that the McMahons planted earlier on. This leaves Shawn all alone to face Umaga later in the show. After help from the McMahon and the Spirit Squad, Umaga pins Michaels and beats the holy hell out of him. Umaga vs. Triple H is announced for next week's RAW.
August 7, 2006 RAW: Shawn Michaels takes Shane McMahon's bait by attacking him in front of police officers and ends up getting taken away from the building to leave Triple H alone against Umaga. And with lots of interference from the McMahon's, Umaga pins HHH.
August 14, 2006 RAW: DX did nothing too notetworthy on this show. It was the go-home RAW before Summerslam. DX went to the ring and cut a promo on the McMahons saying how they're gonna beat them, then the McMahons came out and did the same thing at the entrance ramp.
August 20, 2006 PPV: Summerslam: DX had a very entertaining match against the McMahons. Before entering the match, the McMahon sent the Spirit Squad down to the ring, but DX made a quick disposal of them. Then they sent down Ken Kennedy, William Regal, and Fit Finlay which DX took a tad longer to dispose of. Then came the Big Show who destroyed HBK and chokeslammed Triple H through a table. While HHH was recovering, the McMahons wailed away on Michaels, giving him finishers that mocked three of WWE's greatest tag teams: Demolition, Hart Foundation, and Legion of Doom. Finally HHH got in and DX got the upper hand until Umaga came out to beat up DX, but then Kane interfered on DX's behalf to even up the score. This resulted in HHH giving a pedigree to Vince for the Pin.
August 21, 2006 RAW: The McMahons are pissed off after losing the previous night and guarentee revenge on DX. They get interrupted via their in-suite television with DX over at the airport inside Vince McMahon's personal jet. As we see Shawn & Hunter walk out of the aircraft, the camera pans out to see they spray painted in big green letters "DX" on the side of the jet. Vince nearly breaks down in tears. Later that night Vince walks out to the ring and says he sent police down to his air hangar to arrest DX and commanded the camera man at the air port to appear on the titantron. Instead we get another camera with DX, this time on top of Titan Towers at the WWE main corporate headquarters in Conneticuit. HHH & HBK are on the rood and yell out "Suck It" as the camera pans out so we see the entire building with "DX" spray painted all over the WWE main logo on the tower. Vince breaks down in tears again and later on he and Shane leave the building, but as their limo takes off we see a chain connected to the bumper and it completely yanks off bumper and rear axel of the limo. Vince and Shane emerge out of the limo very pissed off, and Vince appears to have a nervous breakdown as Ross on commentary says that DX has broken Vince McMahon.
August 28, 2006 RAW: Shane McMahon decides to run RAW for the day so Vince can relax at the hotel and ease his nerves.

DX managed to intervene just in time, and Triple H held one of the half complete ladders in place, while Shawn climbed it and retrieved the titles to make DX new Unified Tag Team Champions for the first time in their 12 year history!
December 14, 2009 RAW: This was a three hour version of RAW with Slammy awards presented throughout. DX was nominated for best Tag Team, but Jeri-Show ended up the winners of the award. Shawn Michaels did receive a Slammy for his part in best match of the year against Undertaker at Wrestlemania XXV. Jeri-Show invoked their rematch clause that night for the tag team titles. The bell rung, and in the classic school yard prank, HBK bent over behind the ref and HHH shoved the ref over HBK. The ref was insulted for DX assaulting him, and automatically DQ'd DX (DX retains the titles over a DQ). DX got on the mic right afterwards and pretended to be upset over the loss, and pointed out since Jericho is no longer a unified champion, he can no longer appear on RAW and must go back to Smackdown. Then the DX army, which consisted of several ECW and Smackdown superstars dressed up in DX gear, grabbed and hauled Jericho out of the arena.
December 21, 2009 RAW: DX finally stood trial in "little people's court." They went under the ring, which transformed into a hallway and found a court room filled with Hornswoggle and his fellow little people. They presented video footage of DX in the past harassing, threatening and beating up Hornswoggle. No charges were actually filed as all the little people did to punish DX was throw trash at them. DX told Hornswoggle if he really wanted to be part of DX, then he had to do something to impress him. Later in the show, Big Show was doing a sketch with Chris Jericho disguised as Santa, where Big Show was begging that all he wanted for Christmas was for Jericho to come back on RAW. Hornswoggle would have none of it, as him and his little people army attempted to jump Jeri-Show, which Jeri-Show promptly got the upper-hand on. DX made the save however, and said that Hornswoggle impressed them, but he does not fulfill the height requirement to be an official DX member, but gave him the consolation prize of being the official DX mascot.
December 25, 2009 Smackdown: Since DX is now Unified Tag Team champs, they can now appear on both shows. They were scheduled to defend their tag titles against the Hart Dynasty, and mid-show, interrupted a Hart Dynasty/Chris Jericho interview, belittling them and shilling more of their Christmas merchandise. In the main event, DX successfully defended their tag titles over the Hart Dynasty.
December 28, 2009 RAW: Vince McMahon comes out to address the crowd on rumors of Bret Hart coming to WWE as a guest host. HBK interrupts Vince McMahon and tells him if he brings Bret back, "only good things will happen." Vince later on announces that Bret will indeed be the guest host for next week. Jericho attempts to protest to get back on RAW outside, Big Show sees him outside and tells him it is time to move on, and he found himself a new partner against DX later that night, but gives Jericho a ticket to sit at ringside. In the match, DX prevails when they pin Big Show's partner, Chavo Guerrero. DX beats up Jeri-Show after the match.
2010
January 4, 2010 RAW: Bret Hart was the guest host of RAW, and made his first in ring WWE appearance since the 1997 Survivor Series. In Bret's opening speech for the show, Shawn Michaels came out and confronted him. Both guys wanted closure for the fallout of the 1997 Survivor Series. Essentially, both guys kissed and made up for what happened that night. I am not kidding that actually happened. Later DX defended their tag team titles against Jeri-Show again, this time with the stipulation that if Jeri-Show loses, Jericho is gone off RAW for good. DX then proceeded to successfully defend their tag team titles.January 11, 2010 RAW: Mike Tyson was the guest host and Shawn Michaels attempted to make up with him after their fallout at Wrestlemania XIV backstage like he did to Bret Hart last week. Tyson would have none of it however, and said he enjoyed knocking out HBK and wants to do it again, and then made a match with Tyson & Jericho against DX, and if Jericho & Tyson wins, then Jericho gets a free pass to whatever show he wants. In the bout, midway through, Tyson showed he was in cahoots with DX the whole time and unveiled his DX shirt underneath his ring shirt, and proceeded to KO Jericho with a right, and gave DX the victory. Tyson then reunited with DX, and his son came to the ring, and they all did the DX Crotch Chop to close the show.
January 18, 2010 RAW: Undertaker declined Shawn Michaels' Wrestlemania rematch challenge. HBK said he would have to earn it by winning the Royal Rumble. The guest hosts for this RAW was Don Johnson and Jon Heder. Don Johnson was portrayed as a fan favorite and part of the DX army. Jon Heder was not as lovable, and allied up with Miz and The Big Show. Later a match was made between Big Show, Heder and Miz against DX and Hornswoggle. DX won with Heder getting the beating of a lifetime. Afterward Big Show tried to tussle with them, but DX threw Big Show over the top rope, then Triple H threw Shawn over and got on the mic later to say the Rumble will be every man for himself.
January 25, 2010 RAW: Shawn & Hunter exchange words at the beginning of the show. Shawn says he wants to win the Rumble to face Undertaker again at Wrestlemania. HHH wants to win to try and win the championship on the grandest stage of them all. Both agree it will be every man for themselves. DX then manage to put differences aside and defeated Dibiase & Rhodes in a non tag team title match.
January 29, 2010 Smackdown: DX was suppose to defend tag titles against CM Punk & Luke Gallows, Smackdown GM Teddy Long changed things up after Rey Mysterio and CM Punk interrupted DX's opening interview. Rey was upset with Shawn because he wanted to win the Rumble and face Undertaker at Wrestlemania, and presumed that Undertaker would just steamroll over Rey, who was Undertaker's scheduled opponent at Royal Rumble. So Teddy made Rey vs. HBK and CM Punk vs. HHH. Triple H beat CM Punk, and Shawn and Rey had an awesome match until interference at the end resulted in a DQ.
January 31, 2010 PPV: Royal Rumble: Both HBK & Triple H were in the Royal Rumble match. Triple H entered first at #10, and competed well. HBK entered at #18. Both did some teamwork, but when opportunity presented itself, Shawn superkicked Hunter right out of the Rumble. Shawn made it all the way until the final four, until he got eliminated by Batista. Michaels was shocked, and went into a crazed state, superkicking a ref before finally leaving the arena.
February 1, 2010 RAW: Triple H pretended to be upset with Shawn over him eliminating him during the Rumble, but Hunter said it was cool and he would have done the same thing himself if he had the chance. Tonight there was qualifiers for the RAW Elimination Chamber match taking place at the Elimination Chamber PPV (formerly called No Way Out). Triple H won his Elimination Chamber qualifying match, but Shawn Michaels lost his to Randy Orton, after Randy rolled up HBK in the midst of doing his trademark kip-up. On this show CM Punk & Luke Gallows demanded having their match against DX, but guest host William Shatner made a triple threat tag title match for next week with DX defending against CM Punk & Gallows and also the new tag team of Big Show & The Miz.
February 9, 2010 RAW: Shawn is still obsessed over facing Undertaker at Wrestlemania. DX lost their tag team titles in their triple threat tag team match against Punk & Gallows, and Miz & Big Show where Miz gave a surprise roll up to Shawn and pinned him. Later Shawn confronted Smackdown GM Teddy Long backstage and demanded to get traded to Smackdown and placed in the Elimination Chamber so he could win and face Undertaker at Wrestlemania. Teddy said he could not do that because the Smackdown match was already set. So HBK then Superkicked Teddy Long. Triple H tried to console Shawn Michaels afterward, but all HBK could say was "My career is over."
February 15, 2010 RAW: Shawn Michaels was not on RAW. No DX sketches for this show. Jerry Springer was the guest host where the entire WWE roster went on a charade to fool Jerry Springer that Kelly Kelly was pregnant and banged the whole locker room and could not figure out who the father was until "DNA Tests" revealed that it was Hornswoggle.
February 21, 2010 PPV: Elimination Chamber: Triple H tapped out to John Cena in his Elimination Chamber match.

February 22, 2010 RAW: Shawn Michaels explained his actions at the top of the show. He said he cost Undertaker his championship so Undertaker would let him face him at Wrestlemania. Undertaker came out and accepted, but on the condition that HBK put his career on the line if he lost.
March 1, 2010 RAW: DX invoked their rematch clause for the tag team titles against Miz and Big Show. Right when DX looked like they were about to win, Undertaker appeared on the titantron and distracted HBK long enough for Miz to roll up Shawn and pin him. After Shawn left the ring in frustration, Sheamus ran in and beat the tar out of Triple H.
March 8, 2010 RAW: Shawn and Undertaker opened RAW by going at it in a heated verbal exchange. Both men guaranteed victory at Wrestlemania XXVI, and they mutually agreed to add the stipulation for No DQs and No Countouts. Triple H got in the ring and stated he understood why Sheamus attacked him (for costing him his title at Elimination Chamber), and trash talked him some more until Sheamus came out to the ring and challenged Triple H to a match at Wrestlemania XXVI.
March 15, 2010 RAW: Steve Austin was the guest host, and Shawn Michaels confronted him backstage and asked him what he thought his chances of winning were, Austin said he thinks the streak will still continue at Wrestlemania. Shawn responded by saying he will prove everyone wrong. HBK faced Chris Jericho that night and after gaining the upper hand several minutes into the bout, Jericho had enough and left the match to get counted out. Triple H fought Randy Orton, which ended up in a DQ after Legacy and Sheamus interfered to beat up both men.
March 22, 2010 RAW: Shawn Michaels came out to start the show and mentioned how convenient for WWE to release another DVD encapsulating his career right when he was about it to put it all on the line. HBK reinforced how we was going to end Undertaker's streak at Wrestlemania. Guest host Pete Rose interrupted and told HBK that he is going to face Kane tonight so Shawn can avenge Pete for all the nasty things Kane has done to Rose at past Wrestlemanias. Shawn defeated Kane with some Sweet Chin Music later that night. Old Evolution partners reunited for a night as Triple H and Orton teamed up to take on Sheamus and Legacy in a two-on-one handicap match. Sheamus and Legacy got the win after Sheamus pinned Orton with a bicycle kick.
March 28, 2010 PPV: Wrestlemania XXVI: Triple H emerged victorious over Sheamus with a Pedigree in their battle. Shawn Michaels put fourth a hard fought match, but ended up looking at the lights as he lost to the undertaker and thus went into immediate retirement. Booo
March 29, 2010 RAW: Triple H went out in the middle of the show to say a special goodbye to HBK, but got interrupted halfway with an attack by Sheamus. Shawn Michaels closed out the show with his farewell address. He went on to thank the fans, the Hart family, Vince McMahon,, Hunter and many more. Unlike the Ric Flair send-off this one was just mostly Shawn Michaels, but with Helmsley appearing at the tron entrace to give him a big hug, and the two standing in front of a pair of crossed DX glow sticks as the show and HBK's career went off the air. And now since HBK is gone, this will be the final DX history update, barring the random "one-night reunions" they probably will do a couple times a year in the foreseeable future.
