History
The Extreme Football League (X League) was announced in December 2019, as a successor to the Legends Football League (LFL).[1] The original announcement included a team in Omaha, Nebraska, the Omaha Red Devils,[1] a successor to the LFL's Omaha Heart. The X League's 2020 season was postponed and the Omaha Red Devils never played as the brand was relocated to Arizona for the 2021 season.[2]
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the X League again did not operate during 2021. The league did hold its 2022 season, with the Red Devils scheduled to play two games: at home on July 15 against the Kansas City Force, and away on August 13 against the Los Angeles Black Storm.[3] However, in mid-June it was announced that the Red Devils were suspending activities until the 2023 season.[4] The June 15 contest against Kansas City was not played, and an alternate team from Mexico faced Los Angeles on August 13.[5]
