Is WWE’s Vince McMahon Going To Start Another Football League?

WWE’s Vince McMahon appears to be considering starting up another football league years after his attempt to make the XFL a rival to the NFL.
WWE filed XFL trademarks a few months ago. There’s another bit of interesting trademark news to share. There is no question that McMahon has a football league on his mind but it might not be called the XFL.

A recent trademark filing shows that McMahon’s Alpha Entertainment, LLC has trademarked “URFL” and “UrFL.” The filing was done on 9/30/17 and lines up with rumors going around about McMahon wanting to start up a football league.

This trademark filing was filed by K&L Gates LLP, which is Jerry McDevitt’s law firm. Many fans would know McDevitt as McMahon’s long-time attorney dating back to the early 90’s.

VKM Ventures, LLC (another Vince McMahon company) has filed for “United Football League” and “UFL.”

Here are the trademark filings:

United Football League on 9/21 by VKM Ventures, LLC

URFL on 9/20 by Alpha Entertainment LLC

UFL on 9/21 by VKM Ventures, LLC

For The Love Of Football on 9/20 by VKM Ventures, LLC
