Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has completed his group’s purchase of the XFL from Vince McMahon and has announced the league is ‘hungry’ and ready to restart. This is music to everyone’s ears whether you are a hungry player looking for a look, or a fan just looking for another source of gridiron entertainment.

The league will take a two year hiatus and restart in 2022. Johnson posted a video today announcing the league’s plan to move forward.
