30 for 30: This Was The XFL premieres tonight on ESPN

The 30 for 30 documentary titled This Was The XFL premieres tonight at 9PM EST on ESPN.

This is a 77-minute documentary directed by Charlie Ebersol, chronicling the short-lived, ill-fated pro football league. The documentary tells the story in fascinating, candid, and often rollicking fashion featuring fellow television legends and close friends, Dick Ebersol and Vince McMahon. The director, Charlie, is the son of Dick Ebersol.

McMahon and Ebersol launched the XFL in 2001 and the experiment bombed big time, costing WWE and NBC millions of dollars. This film will explore how Ebersol and McMahon brought the XFL to life, and why they had to let it go.
