#2 USA Network threatened WWE to throw them off the air because of DX
WWE RAW has been airing on the USA Network for the better part of its decades-long run. Triple H once spoke with Wikipedia - Fact Or Fiction, and shared several backstage stories about DX. The Game recalled the US Network sending letters to WWE and threatening to throw the show off the air.
USA Network made it clear to WWE that there was a certain set of words that Triple H and Shawn Michaels couldn't use on TV.
USA then sent the letter to us that said, here’s a very distinct, from 8 to whatever the hours we were on the air, ‘From 8 to 9, or whatever it was, D-Generation X, this group, they can’t say these words, they can’t do this, they can’t do that, from 9 to 10, we’re OK with them doing this, but they still can’t say that and do this.
DX still went ahead and delivered a profanity-filled promo on TV. This resulted in ratings going up and USA Network sent another letter congratulating WWE.
