The X-Pac Of ______

in the HHH-led variant of DX that reformed at the end of 1999, pretty much all the members were memorable in some way...even X-Pac. In fact, I'll even go as far as saying that X-Pac played a special role in DX...and that role carried on when fans started booing him and never looked back. I think it's general consensus here that an "X-Pac" is one who gains a lot of boos, marginal heat, and just makes people think that he sucks because he's the one who makes the majority of the run-ins and stops fans from seeing what they want to see. There's "heat", and then there's "X-Pac" heat. Not everyone can be an X-Pac, though.

For example, I call Sid Vicious "The X-Pac Of Main Eventers", even though one of his reigns (in WWF) precluded the creation of "X-Pac" the character.
JBL is another, more recent example of such "X-Pacity".

I used to call Ivory (as a heel), the X-Pac of the Women's Division...she even used a kind of X-Factor which even further drove the point home.

Who are other "X-Pacs" out there?
