The Iron Sheik was once the biggest villain in professional wrestling history and his feud with "The Real American" Hulk Hogan remains one of the most palpable sagas ever.
These days, The Iron Sheik is a Twitter phenom whose hilarious, profane, off-the-wall comments are tailor-made for the medium. Both of those facts alone are more than enough to make me check out his new documentary "The Sheik" which is now officially available online.
Before we get to the documentary, let's just give everyone a taste of the Iron Sheik Twitter brilliance. A few days ago, the Iron Sheik became furious with controversial Toronto mayor Rob Ford who apparently snubbed The Sheik by skipping out on a lunch get-together. Of course, The Iron Sheik took to Twitter to engage in a war of words with Rob Ford, and here is a cleaned up excerpt of what we can show you from one of Sheik's rants:
"ROB FORD YOU MISS MY [*******] LUNCH FOR THE [*******] CRACK WHAT THE [****] YOUR [*******] CHEESEBURGER PROBLEM?? #sheikmovie"
Meanwhile, The Iron Sheik has jumped on the Donald Sterling issue by simply Tweeting:
"DONALD STERLING I GOING TO BREAK YOUR [*******] NECK #sheikmovie"

As you can tell, the Iron Sheik Twitter page is NSFW for its language, but it sure is amazing to read.
The official synopsis for the new documentary film "The Sheik" is as follows:
"The Sheik is a pop culture documentary that chronicles Khosrow Vaziri's electrifying career. From his upbringing in Iran, his journey in America, to his unprecedented experiences as America's most hated villain.
At age 72, the Sheik has embraced an unlikely new career as an outlandish social media sensation; known for hilarious outbursts and massively popular antics.
Watch as we recount the Sheik's one-of-a-kind life journey.
The film explores the Sheik's personal relationships with those closest to him, and those who know him best: his wife, his children, his grandchildren, his contemporaries and colleagues."
