As we’ve previously reported, the XFL’s second incarnation shut down back in April and later filed for bankruptcy. The company declared a total of less than $50 million for its first season.
However, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that with all the costs involved with starting up the organization, Vince McMahon actually spent around $200 million. That money came from what was believed to be $500 million set aside for three seasons.
As previously noted, the XFL is up for bankruptcy bidding, but McMahon has said that he will not try to buy it.
