Remember him, "The Iron Sheik," WWW Wrestling

Hossein Khorow Ali Vaziri, is 73, and is in pain. He badly needs knee surgery that he can't afford, but if the truth is to be told, every joint on his body could use fixing. 

A lifetime in wrestling, amateur and professional, will do that to a man.

So Vaziri, better known as the evil pro wrestler, "The Iron Sheik," would on this day rather sit in his chair and let the hours pass by than talk about his life.  

He aches all over, he's not making a lot of money and he wants to be left alone.

"Bubba, please, I will talk to you and answer all of your questions," he says, pleadingly. "But let's do it another time. Now is not good."

Now, though, is the time. At least that's the view of Page Magen, who along with his twin brother, Jian, serves as the Sheik's manager. The Magens are attemping to raise fund through crowd sourcing to produce a documentary on the Skeik's life.

How time flies. Yesterday he was a king, today he is a beggar. When God blesses you, always build a structure for yourself and family and SAVE for the future. It helps.
