For the past 6 years Jian Magen and Page Magen have been following and documenting the life of their childhood hero, wrestling’s number one villain, Hossein Kosrow Vaziri, better known as The Iron Sheik. Their close friendship with The Iron Sheik has given them unlimited access to film the man and the legend.
The documentary covers his amazing story, escaping Iran, coming to America for the American dream & finding it by becoming wrestling’s most hated heel. The filming is nearly complete but the filmmakers created an IndieGoGo.com account in order to raise funds for The Sheik’s pending ankle surgery as well as to complete the film. There’s even some great incentives from The Sheik himself if you want to donate. If nothing else, give the trailer a watch below and share it around. The production quality looks fantastic and I know I’ll be looking forward to watching the film. But first, some words from the man himself:
“HELLO TO ALL MY INTELLIGENT FANS!
We start to make a movie, documentary, about my life. How I bodyguard of Shah, how I was gold medal wrestling champion, how I was #1 WWE champion, how I was the real shooter and not like that dog dick Hulk Hogan. But now we need the help of the fans. So if you have the heart, if you have the balls, please help support my documentary on the indiegogogo and to make the REAL film for the REAL fans about the REAL legend.
God bless!”
-The Iron Sheik
