Despite competition from another upstart football league, a WWE executive has reached out to officials in Orlando hoping to put an XFL team in their city.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, WWE’s senior vice president of special events John Saboor contacted Orlando's executive director of venues about the prospect of putting a team in Camping World Stadium.

It's worth noting that Vince McMahon initially claimed WWE and XFL would be separate entities, but clearly that's not the case if WWE employees are working on the new league.

The article also mentions that the XFL's attempt might be difficult to pull off though, because Charlie Ebersol's Alliance of American football -- which kicks off one year before the XFL does -- has already announced that they will have a team in Orlando.

WWE is confident, however, that both league's can co-exist there.
