The Iron Sheik was at an indy wrestling event west of Toronto today. I was able to meet him and got him to sign my Legends figure, as well as my encyclopedia:  I decided to go with a Blue paint marker to match his pants. It's actually a darker blue; the flash made it appear lighter than it actually is.  After getting Sheik to sign my book, I now have a total of 61 autographs in it! Thanks for looking! |

Does he have a foul mouth? Lol Not during my experience lol. He was pretty quiet but still started a conversation with me by asking "where are you from?" |

Awesome signature!
I don't think he controls his own Twitter account. It's most likely his agent that does it.

Congrats on your get!!!
I met the Iron Sheik once at Kowloon's after a show. Kowloon's is this Chinese food place where I live that wrestlers go to after an event. You may remember it as the place Shane and Kane confronted each other during their fued.
Anyway, I went there after an indie event with my lady friend and the Iron Shiek hit on her while walking by our table. He sat at an empty table across from us and kept giving her sex eyes. Eventually the promoter retrieved him and he sat with the rest of the wrestlers at their table.
Shelton Benjamin said "what's up" to her on the way to the bathroom that same night.

I met a guy on the boat once who wrestled as a rip off of the Iron Sheik. I'd like to meet the real deal one day though!

I'm sure this was a humbling experience for you.
Congrats on your new signatures. I too had the same idea with the encyclopedia. I think I am up to 66 signatures and plan on adding another 15-20 Wrestlemania weekend this year.

Great stuff. I enjoy reading your reports from these shows.
Sheik is one who really enjoys the fans. I've heard that he liked giving fans autographs even in his major heel days in wwf and he would nearly be late for planes at the airport.
He used to do a lot of autograph shows but health seems to have slowed him down the last few years.
He doesn't do the twitter, though. He mentioned on a youtube about someone else doing it and him having problems reading and writing. I have a few autographs with my name misspelled, though they are unique/special.

yeah, Sheik's Twitter is controlled by the manipulative buffoon brothers who "handle" him. Sheik can barely write a sentence, you think he knows how to use a smartphone and follows AND COMMENTS ON all of the major trending topics. Fawkin bullshat if I ever seen it.
