Road Dogg on Billy Gunn Not Appearing for DX Reunion, Says It Broke His Heart

– During the altest edition of his Oh You Didn’t Know podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Brian “Road Dogg” James addressed Billy Gunn nota appearing for the recent DX reunion on Raw. He stated the following on the subject (via Fightful):

“It broke my heart, and I believe it broke his too. In all actuality, Hunter was not happy about it either. Shawn and X-Pac weren’t either. We wanted the band, all that we could get back together. Chyna is there in spirit. That didn’t happen. From what I understand, and I’m not in those inner circles anymore, and for my sanity rightfully so and thankful. I don’t know the exact reason, but I was told everything that we could do was done, and we couldn’t come together. During the day prior, I texted him, ‘Hey, are you going to be able to make it? Have you found out any answers yet?’ He said, ‘Yes, I’m in.’ I was like, ‘Oh my God, that’s awesome.’ Literally, before I landed at home, I found out he was not in. I texted him back and he wasn’t happy either. It just didn’t work, no matter what. I understand. Whatever. I understand we’re [AEW and WWE] not huge fans of each other from a business standpoint. It was a big deal, and I feel like he got ripped off and didn’t live it with us. I’m sorry for that. I know he is too.”

The D-Generation X (DX) stable was collectively inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019, including Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and the late Chyna.
