Who is the greatest Arabian wrestler ever?
 
Well vote.

FourFifty 05-16-2007 01:46 PM

With all due respect to all parties involved in this poll, my vote go--

ALAILEYAAAAYELAAAYELAAAA!!!!

Damn you Hassan!

DAMN iNATOR 05-16-2007 01:48 PM

Well, see I would have gone with Hassan, except that it was only his gimmick that he was to be Arabic in WWE, whereas in real life, he’s Italian, so I went with the next best choice, Sabu.

CSL 05-16-2007 01:51 PM

<font color=white>Trick question yo.</font>

Theo Dious 05-16-2007 01:51 PM

I'm reading this as "Wrestler with a Middle-Eastern gimmick." None of those guys is technically Arabian, I believe. The Iron Shiek is Iranian, and Iranians are not Arabs.

I'll admit, though, I got tricked by the trick question. Bravo, BDC. :y:

Lock Jaw 05-16-2007 01:54 PM

Iron Shiek numberr one... he's a shooter man... realy olympic shampion... he can break any of these guys back... make them humbell.... old country way...

Theo Dious 05-16-2007 01:54 PM

I'm not sure as to the Original Shiek or Sabu though. It could be that only one of those guys is an Arab.

No, the Sultan is Rikishi, who is Samoan, damn you are right. :mad:

Why was Rikishi ever billed as an Arab, and further more why was Yoko ever billed as Japanese, why couldn't they both just be Somoan?

No, Original Shiek and Sabu are from Iran as well.

Lock Jaw 05-16-2007 01:58 PM

Because Arabs and Japanese people make better heels.

Stranglely enough, the owner of the resturant actaully knows Iron Shiek. Shiek and the owner's brother trained together and both worked with olympic wrestler, though I'm pretty sure only Shiek went crazy.

You want to tell that to Umaga?

Trick question.

No. I know Sheik and Sabu’s family pretty well. They (including Ed Farhat and Terry Brunk, their real-life names) are from Lebanon.:y: Remember, they have family that lives within minutes of me, so I should know...

Theo Dious 05-16-2007 03:36 PM

I'm pretty sure that being Lebanese doesn't make you Arabic either, though.

Yeah, it helps to be from the Arabian peninsula. But I'm not sure where Arabia ends and other peoples begin. I just know that Iran is old Perisa and Lebon is probably not considered Arabian in the strictest sence of the word. Much like France isn't considered German.

FourFifty 05-16-2007 09:45 PM

THEY'RE STILL ARABS TO ME, DAMNIT!

Crossrine 05-16-2007 09:50 PM

It's about damn time this thread would be made. Now I get to see how you guys view my people.. Well two of my people Original Sheik and sabu.. Rest arent arabs. Kayfabe maybe but not arabs.

I'm pretty sure the lebanese are considered Arabs, considering the fact that their language is arabic. I see alot of their culture every summer when I visit relatives in Syria.

In Kayfabe Sabu is Indian. But it's well known him and his uncle are from Lebanon. His uncle was one of the first in his family to immigrate.

Then why did you wait for me to make it and not make it yourself? You are retarded.

Xerzes 05-17-2007 12:29 AM

Daivari's also from Iran, as I recall.

NeanderCarl 05-17-2007 12:47 AM

Iron Sheik, portrayed an Arabic character so fuck it, anyone who says otherwise is another no good, low-life son-of-a-bitch.... skinny bastard... motherfucker... apart from that, everything was great.

And here in the United States, we speak English...

Kane Knight 05-17-2007 08:45 AM

Which is Germanic.

Therefore, we're German.

OverTaker 05-17-2007 08:52 AM

Which is short for Germanians.

Kane Knight 05-17-2007 09:14 AM

Shut up, you Tutonic Twat.

OverTaker 05-17-2007 09:35 AM

My aren't we in bad mood today.

Kane Knight 05-17-2007 09:51 AM

No, but apparently you're slow.

I should probably throw in "today," but I'm not so sure. :D
