Hey RapRadar, can we get some Taylor Swift news as well?
Hey idiots, this is why its on RapRadar: Most of the people that read this blog grew up with the WWF on TV, and maybe YOU didn’t watch it, but a lot of people did. Warrior was a fan favorite and whether you realize it or not, he was entertaining for many of us as kids and many kids looked forward to watching him. So show a little respect and try to not hate on one truly meaningful post.
Rip Ultimate Warrior I am your biggest fan and i’m gona be a pro wrestler just like you.
