Had No clue who the Iron Sheik was until I googled him. Never watched Wrestling

 

I do enjoy his prediction though

If you ever get a chance to watch the Sheik movie, I highly recommend. Very good even if you're not a wrestling film

His Howard Stern appearances, most after he retired, are legendary.

So who all do we have going for us now? The Von Ericks, Stone Cold, and now The Iron Sheik?

Please. Give me a gif with Miss Elizabeth, and cut out Trump's brother (I loved that guy, a Brit I believe, but he does look like Trump a little bit).

You've lost your man card for the weekend.  :p

 

Ice Man King Parsons was one of my favorite local wrestlers.

Y'all.   The Iron Sheik's support is great and all, but we need the Million-Dollar Man Ted Dibiase to jump on board.

Clearly, you did not grow up watching World Class Championship Wrestling. Shame on you. The Von Erichs-Freebirds feud was a thing to see.

By the way, Kevin Von Erich posts some gorgeous pictures of spots on and near his Hawaii home on Twitter, as well as some photos and articles from "back in the day."

If we get Augie Debiase to jump on board with Littrell and Co., we should be....

Rumor is the reason we under performed was that just as SL was about to hand out the game plan the Iron Sheik hit him with a folding chair and stole it... we really should have seen this heel turn coming...

"Long before he was Stone Cold, Steve Austin got his start in that arena. He battled mentor Chris Adams there as a rookie wearing football pads and a North Texas State jersey.

Of the bout, he told WWE.com, "And I'll be damned if we didn't have the most entertaining match.""

Kevin Von Eric making a tackle in during practice 1978?

 

Steve "Stone Cold" Williams sealing the win over TCU in 1986.

The good ol' sportatorium. Man those were the days. I remember seeing the Von Erics and Freebirds there. When I was a kid, I hated the Von Eric that wrestled barefooted because the bottom of his feet  always looked dirty as hell....

During college i worked the deli counter at Tom Thumb in Lewisville.   In walks Kevin VE to get his 3/4 pound of thinly sliced turkey.   I couldn't live with myself if I didn't take a look, so I walked out from behind the counter to out front and peered down at his feet.   He immediately started laughing with the comment, "yes, I have on shoes"
