I got to say now I see why Iron Sheik and Gene Mean...lol....have such great chemistry together when they did promos....he was the best man at his wedding awesome
I was thinking the Iron Sheik must be guilty as charged, until I heard Mr. Gene Mean mentioned that the Iron Sheik is married to a nice Scandinavian Lady, I have changed my mind, he is clearly innocent..
@@eyehatefarcebook11 Yep. Things r moving too fast. People r wrapped up in themselves. The govt is past the pt of no return and our environment is trashed. Glad I am getting old.
Cyndi Lauper, the only one to break character and speak from the heart. It’s a shame she isn’t in the WWE HoF - she was as responsible for the 80s wrestling boom as Hogan was. The whole MTV Rock N Wrestling Connection directly fed into the first WrestleMania. Without Lauper, the mainstream wouldn’t have paid any attention.
Are you serious Cindy Lauper isn't in the WWE hall of fame? That's a joke and a bad joke at that. I also recently heard one of the greatest heels ever King Kong Bundy was not put in the WWE hall of fame before he died. WTF.
I’d like the manager role…distract ref, put the foot on the ropes to break the count..eventually get the baby face punch in the face and cut those scathing promissory promos where I get to slap the oil on the roided up goof(s)
Legend has it that if you listen closely, you can hear the sound of the jail cell being slammed in the background when Blassie calls the judge a pencil neck geek. I miss this kind of insanity on wrestling.
LOL After the editing they included Mene Gene, Cindy and perhaps Bobby Heenan (I say perhaps due to his heel background) in the final cut. If that didn't work I guess it was plan B that Vince went with and that was to buy his way out. Much love to Sheiky BABY!!!!!
the Iron Sheik with: "Classy" Freddie Blassie, Arnold Skaaland, Bobby "the Brain/Weasel" Heenan, Captain Lou Albano ("the Guiding Light" - like that weekday / afternoon soap opera tv series), "Mean" Gene Okerlund, (1985) Grammy-award winning) Cyndi Lauper (who was similar to Madonna or Lady Gaga : all New Yorkers/Yawkers) = all of these People are definitely Legends / Hall of Famers !!!!!
If this had been for "Da drugs A to Z bubba" then I'd have said Sheik is guilty as hell. But being related to, and being friends with pro wrestlers I have personally seen 'fans' after shows and at bars try and step up and try to insult or engage in fights, believeing these guys are who they are 24/7.. I could see people (before fans knew what it was all about) trying to fck with Sheik... But Sheik in the 80s was a tough son of a bitch, and these were the day when guys would beat the hell out of the anybody who tried to bring the curtain of reality down.. These guys should thank God this wasnt Haku!!! Sheik Baby #1!
Back in 1985 Sheik was arrested after getting into a scuffle with a 17 year-old gas station attendant in Connecticut. Apparently the kid was a fan of wrestling, but not of Sheik. . . The judge of the case was a wrestling fan as well, so Sheik's attorney, Mickey Sherman got the idea to use everyone in the video as a character witness. It must have worked 'cause the Sheik received "accelerated rehabilitation" and no jail time.
I was waiting for the classic "Heenan humour". I thought it wasn't going to happen... until the "I'll make sure 10, 20 people vote for ya". Classic Heenan 😆
They should mention the fact that Sheik helped thousands of people get off drugs. They had no choice but to kick the habit since Sheik singlehandedly consumed all the drugs in the tri-state era.
When did this happen and what did he get in trouble for?. I've heard about the incident with a girl involving Marty Janetty but this gem is way before the rockers came to the WWF.
Was this when sheiky baby gave a short clothes line to that lady who was trying to be a prostitute and use sheiks medicine and hook up with marty jannety?

Crazy thing is Mean Gene was the best man at the Iron Sheiks wedding for real.
When Cindy Lauper in her prime defends the Sheik, the judge knew he screwed up.
I love how Iron Sheik almost gets into character when Lou Albano is talking about him. He's ready to make the judge humble
LMAO
Zoom it !
This Vennesday! VATEVER!!
Lou Albano said about Iron Sheik what a lot of people, even today, should be reminded of before they judge Sheik.
Respect to both of them.
FinalDinal Indeed Rest In Peace Captain Lou Albano aka Super Mario!!!
@@allwightallwong5045 no , thank you Mr acavano!
I never understood the rubber band thing on his beard though....
These old guys are funnier than today’s wrestlers
It was hysterical back then. Such low budget production makes it much funnier as well
Gotta love the Sheik. Also miss the captain and Blassie very much.Those were the best days and funniest in wrestling history.
Mean Gene bringing it all together, as always, with his endless reservoirs of class, charm and decency. The absolute best.
I love the way all these guys stayed in character.
Freddie Blassie's testimony should have been enough.
To get Sheik life in prison
This will totally get him off the hook , what judge wouldn't eat this up...LEGEND !!!!
This is the weirdest video I've ever seen. I'd love to know more about the case.
I think he was accused of assaulting a cop
Shiek needs a new defence team
@@20FreeWill back then they were on legit super star level..Like Jim says the were the equivalent of NBA and NFL stars today..They really were tho..
I think sheik was stopped by police with cocaine, Marijuana, and alcohol in New york?
It is such a weird video... why would they think this would possibly help him beat the case?
I got to say now I see why Iron Sheik and Gene Mean...lol....have such great chemistry together when they did promos....he was the best man at his wedding awesome
shooting promos on a judge to help sheik,wow.
okerlund was the mvp in these promos.
That was phenomenal especially Captain Lou! 👍🏽😎😜
Kosgrow is a good man!!!!
They should do this anytime a wrestler gets in trouble.
Loved Freddie Blassie's speech, Listen judge ya pencil neck geek, lol
He was one of a kind. Lot of those managers gone now.
I was thinking the Iron Sheik must be guilty as charged, until I heard Mr. Gene Mean mentioned that the Iron Sheik is married to a nice Scandinavian Lady, I have changed my mind, he is clearly innocent..
Hahaha
4:22
"But Do You Feel Strongly About It?"
Captain Lou was the Best.. 👍🏿👍🏿🤣😂
What a unique piece of professional wrestling this is. Can something be a shoot and kayfabe at the same time? If so...this is it!!!
Sherman's reactions make this pure gold. I haven't laughed out loud this hard in a long while. BTW, In a collection of legends, Blassie is KING!
"Listen you judge, ya pencil neck geek . . . :" Brilliant.
alan dvorkis Love it, I miss ole' Freddie Blassie.
@@eyehatefarcebook11 Seems like everything old is better.
alan dvorkis Old enough to remember, but still too young to enjoy it. Great memories good and bad. Just a simpler, more laid back time.
@@eyehatefarcebook11 Yep. Things r moving too fast. People r wrapped up in themselves. The govt is past the pt of no return and our environment is trashed. Glad I am getting old.
Come on, Freddy Blassie! Calling the Judge a "Pencil-necked geek" ain't doin' the Iron Sheik any favors! It's just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too threatening!
Cyndi Lauper, the only one to break character and speak from the heart. It’s a shame she isn’t in the WWE HoF - she was as responsible for the 80s wrestling boom as Hogan was.

Can your friends be this supportive like this ☝🏻
Meanwhile TH-cam is full of clips with iron shirk threatening to break peoples backs
Wow, that's the first I've ever heard Cyndi in a normal voice. AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEE
I wish I was a wrestler at this time.
I’d like the manager role…distract ref, put the foot on the ropes to break the count..eventually get the baby face punch in the face and cut those scathing promissory promos where I get to slap the oil on the roided up goof(s)
Bobby the brain could have been a lawyer. Thankfully,he didn't
5:42 Just when you think things can't get any weirder...
Gene Mean: "And Judge Rotman I've always been a big proponent of yours..." * puts hand in pocket*
Gene was the best.
Some of the greatest promos I've ever seen
This had to be a rib on someone. No way that was ever really meant to be shown in public. Hopefully it was a rib on Vince!
Just ready about this in The Six Pack. Absolutely tremendous video!
Bobby Heenan basically bribing the judge
Legend has it that if you listen closely, you can hear the sound of the jail cell being slammed in the background when Blassie calls the judge a pencil neck geek.
I miss this kind of insanity on wrestling.

Captain lou as a character witness…lol
This is one of the carniest things I've even seen & it is amazing lol
RIP Sheiky Baby
Promo on the judge, days when wrestling was great and kayfabe running wild.
If this had been for "Da drugs A to Z bubba" then I'd have said Sheik is guilty as hell. But being related to, and being friends with pro wrestlers I have personally seen 'fans' after shows and at bars try and step up and try to insult or engage in fights, believeing these guys are who they are 24/7..

Off camera shirk was just as volatile he was jsrd to get along with even hillbilly Jim said he was a crazy man
@@michaelrubin4832 Na i have meet Sheik a few times over the years, and he is funny as hell. He loves his beer.
That A to Z shoot happened way later than this
Bobby Heenan should have been a lawyer
I love how they try to kayfabe “the language problem” when the Sheik had been living in the US at least 15 years at this point.
How was the sheik so quite for so long?
Capital luo albano, you said it perfact!!
These guys are the best...
Kevin Nash "KLIQ This" Podcast brought me here
Can anybody provide some CONTEXT to this?! I've never see this before. Thanks.
Back in 1985 Sheik was arrested after getting into a scuffle with a 17 year-old gas station attendant in Connecticut. Apparently the kid was a fan of wrestling, but not of Sheik. . .
The judge of the case was a wrestling fan as well, so Sheik's attorney, Mickey Sherman got the idea to use everyone in the video as a character witness. It must have worked 'cause the Sheik received "accelerated rehabilitation" and no jail time.

They should mention the fact that Sheik helped thousands of people get off drugs. They had no choice but to kick the habit since Sheik singlehandedly consumed all the drugs in the tri-state era.
I must say, I wouldn't mind having Bobby Heenan as defense attorney, the man was intelligent and very articulate.
That was a great piece.
They turned a real incident, into a work
RIP Gene Mean
The quietest ive ever seen THE IRON SHIEK
Absolute GOLD
Love. You Iron sheik good Boddy
Judge, I beg your pardon, but how can you say that these character witnesses are not reliable? 😁
CLASSIC!!
Where the fuck is Gene Mean he always interviewed the Shiek plus I think Classy Freddie Blassie would have made a great mob boss!
Hulk Hogan must have started this mess with the Iron Sheik
I wonder if he called the judge a jabroni
When did this happen and what did he get in trouble for?. I've heard about the incident with a girl involving Marty Janetty but this gem is way before the rockers came to the WWF.
I think assault?
You should have seen his face when he said he was a silver medalist
They should have also had Ted Dibiase in this too. He was very well spoken.
"Judge everybody has a price bahahahahahaha"
I heard that Classy Fred Blassie had something to do with the Black Dahlia murder.
Bobby Heenan… He Respect The Legend!!!
Love all these wrestling luminaries especially Cindy Lauper
The Kliq This podcast brought me here
Lauper should save this same speach for her son. Ty
freddie blassie calling the judge a pencil neck geek is fucking hilarious
Captain Lou, Super Mario Bros SUPER show!
Everything about the iron sheik and the ayatollah blassie was crazy.I heard he wrecked a hotel room and had some issue with the police at some point.
expostulate?
A transitional verb that means to discuss or examin.
Mean Gean is fantastic
I DON'T THINK BLASSY DID ANYTHING GOOD FOR THE SHIEK. I WOULD BE TERRIFIED TO WALK in that courthouse
Judge rottman wasn’t easy and doesn’t take pity
Blassie lol I'm sure that helped.
What was the case??
Makes us remember just how good the old guys was.
I wonder if any of these people said these things under oath.
Love Albano. R.I.P.
i now we have to deal with wrestler like roman reigns ...... old school bubba
arashmusic siri you don't have to deal with nothing n neither do I it's none of our business remember wrestling is fake
Yeah but they get scripted, not their fault
3 goat managers Freddie,Bobby and Lou rip also to mean gean
I love her new york accent.
What was the outcome of the case?
Blassie and Albano LMFAO 🤣
Did it work?
What is the story behind this?
Did that judge win the election? He sure had a bunch of votes that he could count that were promised to him.
Was this when sheiky baby gave a short clothes line to that lady who was trying to be a prostitute and use sheiks medicine and hook up with marty jannety?
The Shiek speaks better English then Albano
dude cmon, he was gonna step into the ring on this night apparently
The fink….Employee of Titan Sports Inc. #1 of………….
Promo-A-Thon! People come in and cut promos to save a man's career and life. WOW...
This is hilarious 😂
Is this a worked shoot?
LOU is good insane!
Most likely this was not presented in court .....lol
Was this real or just a work?
