| Wrestling is out of the Olympics, Iron Sheik mad Iron Sheik THREATENS Olympic Committee -- 'I Swear to the Jesus I Suplex Them' | TMZ.com The Iron Sheik isn't just a WWE legend ... he's also a veteran Olympic wrestler ... and he's so pizzed that his sport is getting booted from the Games ... he's now threatening violence. As we previously reported, the International Olympic Committee has moved to drop wrestling from the 2020 games ... in favor of other sports like field hockey. Seriously. Now, Sheik -- who competed for Iran in the 1968 Olympics and then became an asst. coach for Team USA in the '70s -- tells TMZ (in his trademark broken English) he's looking to take matters into his own hands.

| There is where the NFL is going. Just as soon as they can add enough musicians, celebrity causes, cheerleaders, flag wavers, fireworks and beer commercials, there will be no need for the football anymore. That's what the Olympics without wrestling is; something else.
