The XFL was a professional American football league that played its only season in 2001. The XFL was operated as a joint venture between the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) and NBC. The XFL was conceived as an outdoor football league that would begin play immediately after the National Football League season ended, to take advantage of the perceived lingering public desire to watch football after the NFL and college football seasons conclude. It was promoted as having fewer rules to encourage rougher play than other major leagues, while its telecasts featured sports entertainment elements inspired by professional wrestling (and in particular, the WWF's then-current "Attitude Era"), including heat and kayfabe, and suggestively-dressed cheerleaders. Commentary crews also featured W

  • De XFL was een professionele American footballcompetitie opgericht in 1999. De XFL heeft een jaar bestaan en was een samenwerking van de World Wrestling Federation (nu bekend als WWE) en televisie netwerk NBC dat allebei voor de helft eigenaar was. De vormgeving van XFL-wedstrijden ontleende veel elementen van sportentertainment zoals suggestief geklede cheerleaders, kayfabe verhaallijnen en het gebruik van WWF-persoonlijkheden als commentatoren en verslaggevers. In tegenstelling tot sportentertainment waren alle wedstrijden en uitslagen legitiem. (nl)

A liga tinha oito equipes em duas divisões, incluindo os principais mercados e aqueles que não eram directamente servidos pela NFL, como Birmingham, Las Vegas, Memphis e Orlando.
