genuinely curious. I'm not into sports.
- 3131s 7y agoThe original XFL had some different rules around certain types of hits, and it also emphasized the players' personas more by letting them choose the names on their jerseys, trash talk, take their helmet off for celebrations, etc. It was and is still run by the same people behind WWE. Now I take it they're moving in a different direction. Is there generally more or less concern for player safety in the XFL now, compared to the NFL?
- philwelch 7y agoI don’t know if I would say there’s more concern, but there are some rule changes that make some parts of the game safer, such as the kickoff rules.
- exabrial 7y agoWWE = Fake Wrestling as Entertainment. Lots of drama, lots of chugging beers, throwing people tables, etc. I'm known to watch a Smackdown once in awhile for a good laugh.
