WWE Stock Hits All Time High After XFL Announcement, Triple H And Shane McMahon On XFL Return, More
- The market reacted positively to today's announcement about Vince McMahon relaunching the XFL under his new company, Alpha Entertainment. The stock jumped 1.9% to close at $34.13, which is a new all-time high. The last time WWE stock hit $34 was when the company went public in September of 1999.
- A lot of people – myself included – got a good chuckle when Vince said during today's XFL media call that three hours was too long for a football game. Vince noted that he'd like to keep the games at around two hours.
- The official site for the XFL, XFL.com, is now live. Their official Twitter handle is @xfl2020, as @xfl was taken.
- Triple H and Shane McMahon reacted to today's announcement on Twitter, as seen below. Stephanie McMahon has yet to tweet anything regarding the announcement.
Watching @VinceMcMahon make history ... again. Congratulations to @AlphaEntLLC on the official launch of @XFL2020! pic.twitter.com/9U9hZvVoBY
