Sad news. LINK

His twitter account was hilarious. Iron Sheik Twitter


81 yrs old is actually very good for a wrestler.

That's astronomically good. The great majority of the past well known WWF wrestlers died in their 40's and 50's from either heart attacks due to the extensive use of steroids or they died from a drug overdose.

Yeah, pain medication gets most of them. Sad.

My favorite wrestler of all time Roddy Piper actually made it to 62. As a kid I thought he was really Scottish but found out he was actually Canadian much, much later when I was in college.

I missed Roddy Pipers death.

The most disturbing death goes to Chris Benoit LINK

I was never a big wrestling fan, but I did like how Bret The Hitman Hart represented Canada.

Clearly he was set up to be hated by America, especially Pittsburg, haha. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mbw5N7rYEas
