The horrifying consequences of Slamball from several years ago. It's really cringe-inducing and you can see some of it.

It could have worked if Vince would have given it a proper name. Even in the early 2000s the X- whatever bs was played out. Vince also should have distanced it as much as he could from the world of wrestling rather than trying to blend the two.

Now I'm considering if XFL should have done the opposite, though: A mix of pro-wrestling, small-town hockey and football. Every game is like The Waterboy.

Also, is MTV Rock and Jock still a thing, or is the idea of this generation of pop stars playing sports is more laughable than the idea of ME playing sports?
