The XFL lost $60 million this year, but 'The Rock' says he's playing the long game
The XFL, the semi-pro football league that received rather mundane enthusiasm from San Antonio sports fans, reported a stunning $60 million loss in its first year of operations, according to Forbes. Despite the large deficit and middling fan base, league owner Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson — who along with his ex-wife bought the rights to the league for $15 million in 2020 — assured fans in an interview with Forbes that he's in it for the long haul. "This is not just an endeavor that's going to fill up a portfolio and one day we flip it and we're out," Johnson told the magazine.
