Variety’s sister site Sportico first reported the news.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nJohnson, an actor and producer who played college football at the University of Miami, teamed up with Gerry Cardinale’s RedBird Capital to buy the league just hours before a planned auction was scheduled to begin.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThey paid $15 million, splitting it evenly. Johnson’s business partner, Dany Garcia, who is also his ex-wife, will be a stakeholder as well.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nRedBird has made a litany of sports-related investments, including some with ties to the National Football League and its players.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThe presence of Johnson, meantime, continues pro wrestling’s involvement in the spring football league, which was founded—and funded—by WWE Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Vince McMahon.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThe XFL filed for bankruptcy in April after the COVID-19 pandemic prompted the cancellation of its inaugural season, which got off to a promising start in terms of television audience. The league had a broadcast agreement with Fox.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nWith live sports a reliable vehicle to deliver ratings, there’s a good chance a number of traditional TV networks—and perhaps streaming companies—would seek to add the XFL to their portfolios. Besides the league, networks would likely seek a tie-up with Johnson, who is the executive producer of “The Titan Games,’’ a sports competition reality series on NBC.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThe XFL is the latest sports-related move for Cardinale and RedBird, which recently bought French soccer team Toulouse. In addition, Cardinale—along with Oakland A’s executive Billy Beane—created a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, that’ll focus on buying companies in sports, media and data analytics.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThe private equity firm is also an investor in the YES Network, the regional sports network that shows New York Yankees games, as well as On Location Experiences, which is partly owned by the NFL, and also OneTeam Partners, a tie-up that includes the unions that represent MLB and NFL players.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nIn its bankruptcy filing, Alpha Entertainment, the XFL’s parent, listed the league with assets and liabilities in the range of about $10 million to $50 million.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nMcMahon announced the XFL’s reboot in 2018, and spent two years developing the eight-team league.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThe XFL drew more than 3 million viewers in its first week. The audience was about half that number in its fifth and final week before the shutdown.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nThe original XFL, created in 2001 in partnership with NBC, folded after one season.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nXFL President Jeffrey Pollack oversaw the sale process for the league.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003ci\u003esource: varity.com\u003c/i\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cdiv class\u003d\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003e\u003cscript expr:src\u003d'\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/Klq?i\u003d\" + data:post.url' type\u003d\"text/javascript\" charset\u003d\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c/script\u003e\u003c/div\u003e"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"https://www.klqwrestling.com/2020/08/dwayne-johnson-buys-xfl-for-15-million.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https://www.blogger.com/feeds/7964262/posts/default/7697816474267885420"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https://www.blogger.com/feeds/7964262/posts/default/7697816474267885420"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"https://www.klqwrestling.com/2020/08/dwayne-johnson-buys-xfl-for-15-million.html","title":"Dwayne Johnson Buys XFL for $15 Million With Redbird Capital as Partner "}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Kaliqo~"},"uri":{"$t":"https://www.blogger.com/profile/16883827855779815366"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"32","height":"32","src":"//images-blogger-opensocial.googleusercontent.com/gadgets/proxy?url\u003dhttp://1.bp.blogspot.com/_GAU61F_GcXw/Sq5xKvM2cyI/AAAAAAAAALA/SD6S9DAAU3M/S220-s100/allura-logo.jpg\u0026container\u003dblogger\u0026gadget\u003da\u0026rewriteMime\u003dimage/*"}}],"thr$total":{"$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964262.post-7006840042642410331"},"published":{"$t":"2020-04-22T12:29:00.000-04:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2020-04-23T12:34:18.346-04:00"},"category":[{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"WWE"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"The Rock"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"Triple H"}],"title":{"type":"text","$t":" The Rock Sends Special Message To Triple H For WWE's The Bump"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"The Rock sent a special message to Triple H for today's episode of The Bump on WWE's Digital platforms.

I gotta tell you, man, from the time I first got into the company, you, from my very first match in Survivor Series at The Garden, you were so good to me, so welcoming to me then, but also I knew... I knew of everybody in the locker room, that there was a hunger in your eyes, and I knew that we were going to be competitors, and we were going to compete, and work our asses off, and that's exactly what we did, and that's exactly why we jelled together, why we had incredible chemistry.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\"You know, I always talk about the matches that I've had with Stone Cold, that you've had with Stone Cold, and that you've had with Mick Foley, and I've had with Mick Foley, The Undertaker... you name it, but there's only one man who I've gone around this world with and wrestled consistently with so many times, and put on just incredible matches, and that's you. And I thank you, I love you, congratulations, man, on just an amazing career, but also to, not only an amazing 25 years, but also not only in the ring, but what you've done outside of the ring, too, has been unparalleled. You can't compare it because nobody else has done it, and what you're doing with NXT, what you're doing with the company itself, and what you're doing to make sure the fans go home happy, because it's in your blood, it's in your DNA, it's as if you were born into the business, and in some other lifetime you were. This is why we're kindred spirits. Congratulations on such an amazing 25 years. I look forward to the next 25 years. Thank you for being a friend, thank you for being a brother.
