WWE star Bray Wyatt isn’t much active on social media but he took to Twitter and paid homage to the WWE Hall of Famer The Iron Sheik, as he addressed the late WWE Hall of Famer. The Iron Sheik always called his friends “Bubba.”
This was noted by Wyatt along with a hashtag that said “humble.” After all, another thing the Iron Sheik always said was that he would make people “humble,” along with a few other choice words.
“We will miss you Bubba”
WWE legend The Iron Sheik recently passed away at the age of 81. He is survived by his wife and three children.
The Iron Sheik was certainly one of the greatest names in the world of pro wrestling. He won the World Heavyweight Championship in late 1983 after defeating Bob Backlund. The Iron Sheik has had a storied career and his match against Hulk Hogan in January 1984 at Madison Square Garden remains to be one of the greatest chapters in pro wrestling.
At the show, Hogan defeated Sheik, which is considered the beginning of “Hulkamania,” the greatest babyface run in wrestling history. Apart from that, The Iron Sheik also won the WWE Tag Team Championship alongside Nikolai Volkaff.
The Iron Sheik’s death was also recently confirmed by his family via his Twitter account. They shared a touching note about the tragic development, revealing just how loved a man Sheik was out of the ring.
