The XFL, when you think about it, you think about that league that Vince McMahon came out with in 2001 where it started off, had a lot of momentum, then it turned gimmicky, came and resurrected in 2020, went through a bankruptcy because of the pandemic and now was back with a powerhouse group.

You're talking about Redbird Capital and Jerry Cardnell,'re talking Danny Garcia and you're talking

the Wayne Johnson the rock right and you take his personality and you take his

appeal and everything that comes with the rock and the Wayne Johnson to the movie star.

But you've got to go back to those days as a wrestler where he was able to gain that appeal.

He was able to gain that charisma and build it to what we see today.

And now today, because of that, you have the tequila. Because of that that you have the tequila because of that you have the

energy drink because of that we see this big giant gigantic movie star in

Duane Johnson today. People forget he wanted to be a football player. He wanted to make

it any NFL but did not have the opportunity. With the XFL is for Duane Johnson is an opportunity

to present opportunities to those guys who may not get the opportunity otherwise.

That's what the XFL is to him.

He's taking it and wearing it on the sleeve.

Have you got a chance? Has it sunk in yet? You know I asked Danny Garcia the same thing

that you get a chance to walk around the venue and do you feel it?

I have been feeling this surreal thing for sometime now ever since we bought the

XFL but coming to this particular event championship game we've completed

the season and that was in itself one of our goals because the last iteration of the

XFL when Vince McMahon owned it shut down four or five weeks in because of COVID like a lot of the world shut down at that time so

historically spring football hasn't worked so my goal was can we get through this

season what does that season look like so now we're here

championship game uh it's a special feeling yeah yeah
