QUESTION - Should HBK and HHH form a heel (non-DXish) stable at some point?

So I was having a look at the HBK/Hogan feud from 2005........and wow! HBK is still a TREMENDOUS heel in my opinion. The fans really loved his character as well. The night after HBK lost to Hogan, he got a huge ovation from the crowd against Chris Masters.

Bottom line? Fans APPRECIATE true characters. With the exception of his comeback in 2002, HBK had NEVER been popped that loud before. In 2006 - Degeneration X united. Although we were all excited, it just seemed that HBK and HHH were "trying too hard" to make DX look cool.

Here are a couple of reasons why Degeneration X was a flop in 2006:

1) In 2006 - both men were trying to ACT like degenerates. In 1997 however, both men WERE DX. In 1997, the DX characters were simply a real life extension of what HHH and HBK really were. In 2007 however, they were trying to ACT.....and didn't do the greatest job.

2) Like most wrestlers, Shawn Michaels and Triple H are far better and more original as heels. When being forced to be faces, HBK and HHH's natural chemistry with one another is limited due to the fact that they have to be more scripted.

Possible Solution:

1) Have both Triple H and Shawn Michaels turn heel.

2) As we saw in 1997, let them portray characters that are much closer to their real life personna's. Triple H and HBK don't have to "ACT" ('act' being the key word here) like cocky goofballs as they did in 97', but they can still be extremely effective heels....if their heelish personalities are more similar to their real life personna's.

If it was up to me, I'd actually have
-Randy Orton
-Triple H
-Shawn Michaels

Form a heel stable. The three men form an association, that allows one of them to be the world champ on Smackdown, while another guy is world champ on RAW.

What y'all think?
