Vince McMahon No Longer Planning On Using “XFL” As Name For New Football League

As we reported late last night back on September 26th, VKM and Alpha Entertainment applied for the trademark’s “United Football League”, “UFL”, and “For the Love of Football”, as well as “URFL”. The news of these applications for trademark led to the speculation as to whether or not Vince was still planning on relaunching the XFL.

Today, this news was also discussed on Wrestling Observer Radio. Meltzer commented that Vince probably will not be using the XFL Brand as the name of his new Football League. They expanded by discussing the negativity that surrounds the name “XFL” that stints from the league’s initial run.

At the moment it appears as though that the XFL will remain a thing of the past, however if Vince McMahon is continuing to pursue his rumored venture back into professional football it is expected to be under the UFL/United Football League banner.

More on this as it continues to develop.
