This man's toughness and resiliency was a thing of legend. Unlike most wrestlers though his personal life was even more intriguing. One of the true unknowns from Iran who's story and achievements have gone largely overlooked by most.

Triumph and pain, laid bare. An incredibly human story of a superhuman heel. Learning the backstory of The Legend will make you smile, cry, and laugh. Also, guaranteed to save you from a life as a big time jabroni. Be The Real. Watch "The Sheik."

Kind of dark, drug filled story. Was disappointed. I can't really recommend it.
