Dwayne Johnson talks about the XFL and the importance of providing opportunities to players.

Taking to Instagram, Dwayne Johnson posted an video of last year’s XFL Combine in Arlington Texas, where he met XFL players and coaches. He reminisced about the league he took a part in creating.

We created the “League of Opportunity” in our 2023 season of the @XFL 🏈

Creating a hungry culture for players to grab their opportunity and never let go.

I never made it to the @NFL but seeing our players ball out and sign NFL contracts this season was a very cool and very humbling “life comes full circle” moment for me as XFL owner.

Our merger has been approved by the Department of Justice — and now we all continue to work hard to create even greater opportunities for players, coaches & staffs in our 2024 season this spring.

Let’s get some.
Let’s work.
