“Woken” Matt Hardy put his own spin on yesterday’s announcement:

Currently getting off a CRAFT with WINGS & was just exposed to the XFL news..

Well, MeekMahan positively knows how to get the POST-PANGAEA Plane buzzing..#XFL2020 & “Vince McMahon” (sic) are still currently at the PINNACLE of Social Media Trends across the globe. pic.twitter.com/yUZo0tfTMV

Marcus Mosher has some advice on how the league can be successful:

Listen.. if the XFL was smart, the first thing they have to do is bring in some quality, big-name QBs.

Bring in Colin Kaepernick, Robert Griffin III, Johnny Manziel, etc.
