DelRioMania

Life sucks. ”But you already knew that.” Music… In the Crane Game by Konami Kukeiha Club (Parodius Da! -Shinwa kara Owarai e-) Del Rio is the poster child for the PG era of WWE booking where only Cena, Orton and very occasionally Bryan and Punk are headliners and everyone is just making up the numbers, even former world champions.
