WWE Chairman shocked the world earlier this year when he announced his plans to relaunch the XFL in 2020. McMahon is bringing back the football league through his new Alpha Entertainment company, but it looks like he has run into a challenge along the way. According to PWInsider, sports clothing company Adidas is set to pursue Vince McMahon’s trademark for the Alpha Entertainment logo, which the company feels looks similar to their own logo. No official lawsuit has been filed yet, but it may not be too much longer until the proceedings begin. Details on the XFL’s relaunch still remain scarce, but McMahon announced earlier this year that Oliver Luck will be the CEO for the resurrected football league.

Their current training facility is currently located in Orlando, Florida, but their new building will likely be in the United Kingdom. The report even noted that the new PC could be officially announced as soon as WWE’s NXT UK tapings later this weekend. The reported long-term goal is for the company to build training facilities in countries all over the planet.
