With the XFL planning to re-launch in 2023 under the ownership of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson," the league has unveiled its new logo for the third attempt at the league (which will continue the 2020 version, still ignoring the 2001 version of the league)

The XFL has merged with the USFL to form a new spring football league called United Football League (UFL). The UFL has a similar name to a previous UFL that played from 2009-2013 but is not affiliated with that league.

The Arlington Renegades, DC Defenders, San Antonio Brahmas and St. Louis Battlehawks have joined the new league, while the Orlando Guardians, Seattle Sea Dragons and Vegas Vipers have folded.

Due to the XFL and the USFL both having Houston based franchises, a compromise was made where the Houston Gamblers will be rebranded as the Houston Roughnecks. As a result, the XFL Roughnecks have folded and the new Roughnecks (formerly Gamblers) will maintain all the Gamblers' coaching staff and player rights. 

The XFL lasted two seasons: the COVID-19 cancelled 2020 season, and the full length 2023 season.
