The Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkov tag teams wrestling.  That was part of my weekly high school WWF wrestling viewing.

Remember what a scandal it was when he was pulled over with Hacksaw Jim Duggan breaking kayfabe.  Good guy and bad guy high as kites together?  Wild

Never followed the Iron Sheik

However ,I was a big fan of The Original Sheik. He used to stage some big events against Bobo Brazil in Cobo Hall . Some of the antics in the smaller arenas like the Lansing Civic Center were outrageous.

Also had great memories of the Sheiks Picnic in Williamston , MI in the 70s
