Billy Gunn Weighs In On DX vs. nWo Debate: ‘Both Super Impactful’

Billy Gunn weighed in on the DX vs. nWo debate, acknowledging that he has bias in the situation. The AEW star was part of D-Generation X of course, and the two groups were and still are naturally compared with each other.

Gunn was asked which of the groups was better in his appearance on Insight With Chris Van Vliet. He admitted he has his reasons for picking DX, and offered his rationale for giving the group he was part of the edge. You can see the highlights below:

On His Current Weight:

“260. 260 for me right now is really good. I could be 255 and be okay. But anything over that I start getting like, I feel it. I know the minute I start gaining weight, because I can instantly feel it, and I know what I can do and what my body feels like. But yeah, 260 is good. I was doing something. I would run, I was leaving my feet behind me, and it was driving me absolutely batty. I was like okay, this isn’t a thing. So now I’m in class running spots and stuff with every one of the students trying to figure because they all move differently. So I’m trying to figure it out, and just going, Okay, you’re too heavy and you’re just being sluggish and you’re being lazy. So I dropped some weight, and now I feel amazing.”

On Which Faction Was Better, DX or the nWo:

“It’s people’s opinion, and you can have one of those, right? Of course, I say DX is number one. Kevin [Nash] is going to say nWo. They were both super impactful that literally, I don’t think, even as today, there’s not one wrestling person that doesn’t know what each one of those are. Because it was so impactful and it was so good. I know the only thing that hurt the nWo is it was so good, and then everybody jumped on. Where DX was so good, and you couldn’t get on board with, I don’t care if you had a golden ticket from Willy Wonka, you weren’t getting on that ride.”
