After 21 years it finally happened!

[Heartbreaker]

The Iron Sheik finally made it to the ring.

[Jindrak Mark]

I have no idea what kind of shape he's in these days but it would have been f***ing hilarious if they did a quick comedy bit with him in the ring to pay that off.

It should be fine as long as they don’t give him a microphone.

It would take so little effort and risk to just have him in the ring for two seconds and Graves says 'Heenan was right!' as an Easter egg

[Heartbreaker]

I won't lie, I'm a little bummed out we didn't get a reference to this joke that has lived in my head rent free for years.

Yeah... Reality of the matter is, The Iron Sheik is an old f***in' man. He's 80 years old (actually has the same birthday as me). He could barely walk in 2001, that's why Heenan made the joke in the first place. Any in-person appearance was always a bit of a long shot.

[Non Banjoble Tokens]

For a guy called "Iron" he seems remarkably fragile.

Well, I wasn't expecting the man to actually show up. Maybe a little joke on commentary or something.

[Bo Rida]

Still quicker than a Roman Reigns entrance.

Kind of amazing that Sheiky-Baby has made it to 80 given all the health and substance problems he's had.

Its just ashame the man who made that comment himself is no longer around to see it happen.

Although even if he were I doubt Heenan would have been in any condition to play a role.
