D-Generation X first started in 1998 when the night after WrestleMania, Triple H ejected the absent Michaels from the group for "dropping the ball" over the Tyson incident. In reality, Michaels had suffered a back injury and needed to retire from Wrestling. Triple H assumed full leadership of D-X and recruited X-Pac-who had recently been fired from WCW (World Championship Wrestling) -and the WWF (WWE) Tag Team Champions the New Age Outlaws ("Bad Ass" Billy Gonn and The Road Dogg Jesse James) into the stable. While the group were intended to remain as heels, they became hugely popular and were eventually pushed as fan favorites. During this time, they feuded with the heel gimmick of The Rock and his group the Nation of Domination and then later, Vince McMahon's Corporation. The group remained united and hugely popular throughout all of 1998 and into early-1999.
