The WWE legend just teamed up with an investment group to snatch up Vince McMahon's XFL league for $15 million, the league confirms in a statement.

The league had filed for bankruptcy after being resurrected for the 2020 season -- and was supposed to be auctioned off to highest bidder on Monday.

But Dwayne Johnson and his partners -Dany Garcia (Rock's business partner and ex-wife) and at RedBird Capital (led by Gerry Cardinale) swooped in and bought it up this weekend before it hit the auction block.

The deal must now be approved in bankruptcy court on Friday -- and if everything goes smoothly, it could close by August 21.
The Rock (along with Dany) and RedBird are reportedly 50/50 partners in the deal.

Rumor is they got ties with the NFL so if they can become the G-league for the NFL this'll be a crazy investment. It's Rock so they can probably get a 2k or EA deal and pay players as well if enough talent makes the switch and leave the NCAA plantation

Yuuuus my favorite league is back baby.

Vince probably worked the deal to where The Rock gotta be in the next WrestleMania and fight someone

There will never be an xfl videogame just saying

THEY BACK!
