ESPN’s Darren Rovell revealed that Vince McMahon is expecting to spend close to $500 million in the first three seasons of the XFL.
Averaging out to approximately $165 million per season, this is a significant increase in projections. McMahon sold $100 million of WWE stock to fund this venture a few months ago. When McMahon started this project it was announced that he had started Alpha Entertainment as a company to house the XFL’s operations, separate from the WWE.
XFL CEO and commissioner Oliver Luck said, “People were focused on the $100 million, but the truth is that doesn’t even get us to the 20-yard line.”
Luck was announced as the CEO and commissioner of the XFL earlier in June and is formerly a notable executive in the NCAA.
The XFL’s first season is scheduled for 2020.
