Yesterday the XFL announced that the game this weekend between the Seattle Dragons and the Los Angeles Wildcats at CenturyLink would be played in an empty stadium. Since that announcement the NBA, MLS, NHL and MLB have all suspended their seasons. Rumors are going around online on how the XFL will respond.
Well, just now we’re learning that Dignity Health Sports Park where the Los Angeles Wildcats play has suspended all events until further notice.
All Events Suspended Until Further Notice Due to COVID-19.

This still may not present a challenge for the league as the Wildcats aren’t set to play at home again until March 29th. But, with most major sports organizations suspending seasons, this may be the last straw for the league forcing their hand to follow suit. It’s possible that the XFL plays this game in an alternate location, pending there is one available.
This news is just breaking, we’ll keep you posted as more information comes out on the matter.
Do you think the XFL will suspend their season? If they do, do you think they’ll return to finish the season? Let us know down in the comments below or join the conversation on Discord.
