Dear @dustinrhodes,
Thank you for allowing me to part of your career. Without you I might have sank. Without you I have no Wrestlemania moment (in my hometown). Without you I'm less knowledgeable. I appreciate you. I love you. I owe you. Thank you!#ThankYouGoldust pic.twitter.com/DaARRww24s? Brian Heffron aka The Blue Meanie (@BlueMeanieBWO) April 21, 2019
