Watched during this run, but not their first. DX wasn’t mainstream cool at this time, but neither was WWE like it was in the Attitude Era. This run was cool for fans, but it was a common sentiment that their humor was dated. I guess I’d describe it as positive vibes rather than the “cool” of their first run. But what people liked most was seeing HHH in a different role after dominating the title scene for so long. He needed it.
