WWE News – Superstar Sunday Lineup, Saturday Night’s Main Event, NXT, More

This week’s edition of Biography: WWE Legends on A&E will feature a new documentary on former WWE Champion, Tag Team Champion, and Hall of Famer The Iron Sheik. Here’s a synopsis for tomorrow’s episode:

The “Iron Sheik” is one of the most iconic villains in WWE history–but the arduous journey of the man, Hossein Khosrow Vaziri has never been told. This one-time bodyguard for the Shah of Iran, escaped his country in fear for his life. Without the ability to speak any English at all, he somehow transformed himself into one of the most hated and beloved characters of all time. As the “Iron Sheik” he represented the ultimate threat but Khosrow was living the American Dream along with his beautiful wife and daughters. But, despite the fame and fortune, struggles with addiction and family tragedy all played a part of his incredible story.

A&E will also debut a new episode of WWE Rivals tomorrow, showcasing Hulk Hogan vs. Rowdy Roddy Piper.

You can check out a synopsis and preview clip for the upcoming episode below:

“In 1985, Hulk Hogan leads WWE into a new era with the first “WrestleMania”; while Hogan gets much of the credit, his nemesis Rowdy Roddy Piper feels under-appreciated as the villain.”
