The Rock buys XFL After Bankruptcy
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has partnered with RedBird Capital to purchase the XFL for $15 million. The new football league filed for bankruptcy earlier this year due to Covid-19. The league’s inaugural season was cancelled due to the virus and its players were without jobs.
There’s a new league in town
The hoisting of the Lombardi trophy marked the end of football season... or so we thought. There’s a new league arising and its name is XFL Football. Yes, this is the same XFL that was originally pushed for in 2001. If you throw away all the NFL rules that you’ve become acclimated to and imagine a football league that spends more time actually playing football, then you’ve already grasped the concept of the XFL.
