Credit to someone at NBC for tracking down the Iron Sheik and providing his (heavily edited) views on Olympic wrestling.

http://www.nbcolympics.com/news-blogs/blog=olympic-talk/post/iron-sheik-talks-team-usa-wrestling-london-olympics-2012.html

I think my favorite exchange is:

Q: How would Hulk Hogan do against the current Olympic team?

A: Hulk Hogan don’t last long like because [a few expletives] he not a real man like the Sheiky baby. He get beat bad like [wow... not printing that] and never make it to Olympics. Only for the Olympics for being [or that]. [editors note: He definitely hates Hogan.]

So.. is the Iron Sheik just playing a character and trolling us all or is he really that crazy?

Also, I love how things have to be qualified like "[a few expletives]" and "[wow... not printing that]".

Most likely playing a character. But yes, HATES Hogan. And Warrior. And Tito Santana. And my god does he hate Virgil.

I follow him on twitter and he routinely posts short, obsenity-laced insults towards each of the above. Also hits a few other celebs with regularity. And it's awesome. If you don't have a twitter, get one just for the Sheik. He's worth it.

Listening to Iron Sheik talk always reminds me of the first South Park episode with Timmy (Timmah). On one hand, I feel bad that he is exploited because of his deteriorated mental capacity. At the same time though, this guy is also somewhat playing a character and making a good post wrestling living being controversial. So am I laughing at him, or laughing with him?

Sheik is also in a feud with Roseanne, who he gives credit for having "more balls than Hogan". She can still get broken old country way in London though.

Last night on a Howard Stern replay they had a episode on with Iron Sheik and it was amazing. He went off on Hogan, Savage (this was pre-death), B Brian Blair, Ultimate Warrior, Bubba the Love Sponge. Sounded similar to Stansbury Alum's review.

I hope someone (maybe an "intelligent jew") finds the time to compile and constantly update a list of things that have been definitively categorized as "the real" or "the gay" by the Iron Sheik.

Great article! Sounds like a really nice family--I'd like to actually see how the kid does at State. Have to keep an eye on the ol' J-S for that :-)
