Throughout WWE’s storied history, factions have come and gone, each leaving its mark on the wrestling landscape. Among these legendary groups is D-Generation X (DX), a faction that has etched itself into the annals of WWE history. However, a recent social media post by Finn Balor has stirred controversy within the WWE Universe and reignited the debate over which faction reigns supreme.
Balor’s Bold Comparison
Finn Balor recently took to Instagram to share an edited photo that set the wrestling world abuzz. The image featured the iconic members of DX standing together, but with a twist. The title belts they proudly held were replaced with the current championships held by The Judgment Day, a faction that has made waves in recent WWE history. The playful comparison didn’t stop there.
In the post, Balor playfully cast himself as the Shawn Michaels of the group, tagged Damian Priest in Triple H’s role, placed Rhea Ripley in the position of Chyna, and positioned Dominik Mysterio as X-Pac in the group photo. While Balor likely intended this post in good humor, it sparked a fierce debate among fans.

Online Conflict Erupts
What began as a lighthearted meme quickly escalated into a heated discussion among WWE fans, with staunch supporters of The Judgment Day defending their faction against the iconic DX. One fervent Rhea Ripley fan remarked, “Priest only has a briefcase because he was owed a favor for the Bad Bunny March. Dom is a nepo baby with a pity belt. You are boring as hell outside of your demon persona. Rhea is the only one that deserves the props.”
This fan’s comment highlighted the belief that no one in The Judgment Day is worthy of being compared to DX, asserting that Dominik’s position is due to his wrestling lineage. While The Judgment Day holds a prominent place in WWE as one of the top heel factions, some fans remain steadfast in their belief that they are not on par with Triple H’s legendary faction.
DX Fans Make Their Voices Heard
The online debate raged on, with DX enthusiasts passionately defending their beloved faction. One fan implored, “Pls don’t mix the good old days with your current a** bullshit faction,” clearly expressing the sentiment that DX’s legacy should remain untarnished. Another fan emphasized, “DX was far better than this any day,” hinting that if DX were still active, they would outshine any contemporary faction.
