D-Generation X vs. Legacy

DX's music was a little revamped, at least the opening. An army jeep came out with a bunch of guys dressed up like troops. They started shooting these machine guns at the ceiling and then ran off. Then DX came out in a tank, which was pretty cool.

DX had about a ten minute intro, but the crowd was into every minute of it. Probably the best ring intro this year, at least since WrestleMania. It was anti-climatic when Legacy came out.

Triple H started the match with Dibiase, with "The Game" overpowering Dibiase. The Game did a crotch shot and hit a knee, which led to Dibiase tagging in Rhodes. Rhodes went and cheap shotted Michaels in the corner, which led to HHH tagging him in.

Michaels and Rhodes went at it for a bit, and Michaels actually didn't make Rhodes look like a jabroni. Michaels still got the better of the early exchange, but Rhodes managed to get in some offense.

Legacy was able to gain control and dominated much of the match. There was a cool spot where Rhodes was outside of the ring. In the ring, Michaels ran the ropes towards HHH, who backdropped Michaels outside of the ring onto Rhodes.

Legacy continued to dominate the match, with HHH playing Ricky Morton (even though he's larger than Dibiase and Rhodes).

The end of the match saw Rhodes go for an HBK flying elbow off the top rope onto Michaels, but Michaels rolled out of the way. Michaels then went to the top rope, but Rhodes blocked it and went to superplex Michaels off of the top. Michaels was able to knock Rhodes off and went for the flying elbow, but Rhodes was able to block it. Moments later, Michaels was able to recover and get a figure four on Rhodes, but Dibiase was able to break it up. HHH went for the pedigree on Dibiase, but Rhodes was able to save him.

HBK went for sweet chin music, but Rhodes caught his leg and caught HBK in his "crossroads" finisher, but HHH broke it up. HHH hit the pedigree on Rhodes, but Dibiase came in and broke it up. He hit "Dreamstreet" on HBK, and HHH took Dibiase out of the ring. In the ring, Rhodes and HBK got up at the nine count and HBK nailed a quick superkick to get the win. Really good match, made better with DX making Legacy look strong, unlike their match with the Spirit Squad at SummerSlam 2006.
