What will the "X" stand for this time?

Post by MarkNelson »

In XFL 1.0 the "X" stood for "extreme". (I posted a gif of Homer to make my point)

I wonder what the "X" will stand for in XFL 2.0, as this is clearly a reboot, and the "xtreme" label seems to have been dropped.

Any ideas or suggestions?

The X is for "Xtra". Extra everything you want, none of what you don't. That's just my thought though.

I wonder what will happen when they create a more detailed marketing plan for the league. Will the "X" still stand for "Xtra"?

You might recall in XFL 1.0, the X originally stood for "Extreme", but later it was changed to say that the X didn't stand for anything.

Whatever is needed at the time. Here are some more:

Xeptional

Xcellent, Xellence

Xitement, Xiting

Xpress

Xpert

Xotic
It's gettin' hot in here...and we about to burn 'em up!

Looks like the 2020 XFL champion may be 2-3 seconds short of playing a full season :?

X can’t stand for xtra. I’m sure it will stand for “nothing” before it stands for xtra.

Honestly, I can’t wait to see how they market this league. It will be fun to see how it plays out. The X could end up standing for anything, or maybe they drop the X? Who knows?

X stands for Multiply. This is football multiplied.
