RIP to the Iron Sheik

[KnappShack]

Damn it all to hell

 

[GMackey32]

Dude hated Hogan until the very end. Gotta respect it.

 

[CyBri]

That sucks. Used to love applying a camel clutch.

 

[EnkAMania]

I remember before his WWF days he wrestled in the midwest. "Ask Danny Gable, he knows the Iron Sheik."

 

[Gonzo]

Second greatest pro wrestling heel of all time IMO, second only to Rowdy Roddy Piper.

 

[Drew0311]

My brother used to do the camel clutch on me as a kid when we would fake wrestle. Older brother got to do all the painful moves on me

 

[Gunnerclone]

Legend.

 

[BigJCy]

"F*** the Hulk Hogan I'll put him in a Camel Clutch"

 

[cytor]

Bummer. All the greats are starting to go.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Damn it all to hell

At least he made it into his 80's. Most wrestlers aren't so lucky.

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

He was the man. Absolutely loved the band Phish

Was just looking. At the first WrestleMania he was already in his 40s?

Never would've guessed that.

Edit for bad math

Nikolai Volkoff and the Iron Sheek were a great heel tag team.

That's a perk of being an older brother we get to try all sorts of wrestling moves on our younger siblings:
figure 4
scorpion
crucifix
suplex
back breaker
DDT
Perfect Plex
Boston Crab
Razors Edge
Piledriver

I honestly don't understand how my siblings aren't paralized or something.

Don't forget you get to suplex us into a pool and any other type of slam into the pool.

My favs were always the Scorpion, crucifix and Perfect Plex.

I worked hard to get the Perfect Plex perfected.
