There's not enough talent or support for 3 football leagues. I doubt the XFL launches now, unfortunately, as Vince won't move on from wrasslin'.
This league (and XFL v2) will only succeed if it ends up being a feeder/minor league system to the NFL. If they try to target the same type of market Vince wants, its going to fail miserably. Thiel being involved is also a big red flag though considering some of his views and rep.

Shame for the WWE since that valuable Vince-free period is gone or a lot shorter now. Triple H's side probably needs at least 1-2 years to do all the key changes and stuff in order to move away from the Vince era.
