WWE Hall of Famer The Iron Sheik was interviewed by an NBC Olympics blogger and was in rare form. He was asked whether he could beat any of the current Team USA wrestlers. "In my day I beat living [expletive] out of all Olympian who challenge the legend," he said. "I put them in a camel clutch, break they back [two or three expletives], and make them humble. But now I am not in same shape as before so I don’t [expletive] with them."

Iron Sheik also snuck in an Ultimate Warrior jab when he was asked about Olympian Ellis Coleman, who goes by the Flying Squirrel nickname. "Flying squirrel remind me of Ultimate Warrior because he a little rat when he jump in ring like that idiot Jose Canseco or Mel Gibson. I would never respect the squirrel because the squirrel have no [expletive]."

Powell's POV: Of course, no Iron Sheik rant would be complete without some digs at Hulk Hogan, which you can read in the actual blog. Well, you can read some of them anyway, the interviewer noted that there were plenty of expletives and that Sheik "definitely hates Hogan." Thanks to Dot Net reader Thomas McCaulla for passing along the awesome interview.
