The XFL — the third iteration of it, thanks in part to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson — is back in 2023.

You've seen the teams' locations, the coaching staffs, the uniforms and the players who also were in the NFL.

Now? The schedule has dropped and we're a month away from the XFL coming back. Again.

The season kicks off on Saturday, Feb. 18, when the Arlington Renegades host the Vegas Vipers at Choctaw Stadium (3 p.m. ET on ABC).
