True but even without the virus, ratings for games started falling hard shortly into the season.
Unlike the first XFL, FOX and ESPN/ABC weren't going to pull the plug on their end of the deal as quickly as NBC did back in the day but XFL probably would have lasted like 2 seasons at most had things continued the way they were trending.
Even The Rock's Titan Games series had a bit of a worrying issue pop up right at the end of its recent season. Season finales usually end up being the highest or second highest of a season but the recent season finale of his show ended up being the second least watched episode instead.
