The Sheik Hits the Fan Over Hulk Hogan

Like a deranged lunatic -- a homophobic deranged lunatic -- '80s wrestling legend Iron Sheik stormed into LAX yesterday screaming all sorts of offensive obscenities in a delusional attempt to score a rematch with Hulk Hogan.


After the tirade, the threats and the spitting -- the 65-year-old got rolled up right in the airport ... in his wheelchair.

4. Oh come on. They probably asked him to go into character. Saying how he was a lunatic is not fair.

5. The Iron Sheik is THE MAN! He rassled in our small town about 8 years ago and it was AWESOME! I made a sign and he signed it for me. He even made it to the after-party bar and kicked a few back. Good times!

6. Real funny..wouldn't have anything to do with "Hulk" starting to advertise for his upcoming reality show? You people are a bunch of morons. Hulk is garbage. Period.

8. Can he still perform the camel clutch from a wheelchair? And I thought his nemesis was Bob Backlund, not Hulk. I miss the old wrestling days...before it became one long non-stop music video...

9. You need to find more of these guys. Brings back great memories. How about digging up Baron "The Claw" Von Rashki? Wait, not literally if he is dead...

10. He does this on Howard Stern all the time. Every time he comes on he goes through the same rant & cries about how broke he is. Over it.

11. That brought me back to the old days. He is awsome. So sad bout seeing him in a wheelchair, though. It was only a couple years ago that I last saw him last. He didn't end up wrestling because he left the show not feeling well. But he is a very nice guy and I have had the opportunity to talk with him on a few different occasions when he would be a special guest at an independent wrestling organization that my brother in law wrestles for. The Sheik is a great guy and a true legend.

13. The Iron Shiek was a bad ass in his day, he kicked alot of ass. His rant was pretty damn funny. I saw something on YouTube where he was ranting just like that at a wrestling show or something and he tripped and fell off the stage.
