Notes
The Arena Football League took a one-year hiatus in 2009, but returned in time for the 2010 season with a reformed business model. The AFL signed a one-year deal with the NFL Network in 2010 and carried a weekly Friday night game throughout the entire 2010 season, as well as ArenaBowl XXIII. The contract between the AFL and NFL Network was renewed for another season in Fall 2010. For the 2013 season, the league's new national broadcast partner was the CBS Sports Network. CBSSN aired nineteen regular season games and two playoff games. CBS aired the ArenaBowl (under the CBS Sports Spectacular umbrella), marking the first time since 2008 that the league's finale aired on broadcast network television. In December 2013, it was announced that ESPN had acquired the rights to broadcast Arena football games, including ArenaBowl XXVI. This was the first ArenaBowl to be televised on ESPN since , prior to the year-long hiatus taken by the AFL.
