Jim Ross Confirms The Recent Arrest of a WWE Legend

March 11, 2010

Admist rumors that WWE legend The Iron Sheik has been arrested, Jim Ross has posted the following blog over at JRsBarBQ.com: "Small world….an old friend of mine was on a flight from Vegas to Atlanta this week and was seated on the same row, row 10, with a reportedly rowdy Iron Sheik. My friend, who is not in the wrestling biz, sent me a few text messages describing the scene which apparently was a little wild. It’s hard to believe that when I first met the Iron Sheik that he was quiet, weighed about 195 pounds or so, had hair, and was then a regular traveling partier with Danny Hodge."

JR later posted the following on his Twitter account: "Friend called from Vegas airport boarding flt 2 Atl. It was loud & noisy. Reason: Iron Sheik was boarding! Maybe 2 many jabroni’s" and "My friend called me and Sheik got met by PO-leese @ ATL airport. Ouch, Daddy."
