Fun quiz! Just one note: the XFL actually started prior to 2020, but was revived around that time, so I'd just change the wording a little bit.

You're right. Wikipedia calls this one "XFL (2020–2023)" and the other one "XFL (2001)", so if the answer was "XFL (2020–2023)" then the question would be correct. But I'll accept "XFL" to keep things simple. Thanks for pointing this out!
