Posted March 23, 20178 yr comment_5792952 DX debuts the Run-DMC feud, which was far superior to the original. This is a qualifying match to set up Wrestlemania, and they don't even team Gunn with Road Dogg (not sure if he was injured or what), which is interesting. Really awkward sequence with Road Dogg and Jeff Hardy, although it ended up looking good at the end. There is a lot of sloppiness here that we haven't seen from the Hardys thus far this year with other teams, which makes me wonder if these teams had problems working together. Kane comes out (the music starts, the lights go out, and flames come from the ringposts, yet the ref is solidly distracted) and paves the way for the Hardys to take the win. Not a good match at all but the right team won.

March 25, 20178 yr comment_5793244 I'm going to differ from Charles in not being a fan of the Run DMC version of the song. This match wasn't much at all and featured a good bit of slop and uninterested demeanor from Road Dogg in particular but it did show how 1998 NWO Black and White DX were starting to feel around this time. Adding Tori tried to spark some interest but by this point I am ready for the Kane vs X-Pac feud to be settled and everyone to move on with something else. *1/2
