Unearth the explosive, blood-soaked truth behind the most infamous artifact hunt in wrestling history—The Iron Sheik’s legendary gear—a glittering, curse-ridden relic that vanished after his brutal clash with Hulk Hogan. In this high-octane episode of WWE’s Most Wanted Treasures, we’re tearing apart locker rooms, interrogating wrestling’s underworld, and chasing whispers of backstage sabotage to solve the mystery: Did the Sheik’s iconic robes die with his 1983 title loss… or were they STOLEN to bury his legacy forever?
Hosted by a wrestling relic hunter with a vendetta, this deep dive drags you into the shadowy crossroads of geopolitics and grappling. Discover how the Sheik’s gear—a symbol of Iranian pride and WWE’s golden age—became a radioactive target. Was it torched in a rage after his loss? Smuggled into a dictator’s vault? Or sold to a Vegas pawn shop by a jealous rival? Hear never-before-told confessions from Sheik’s inner circle, forensic breakdowns of the gear’s cursed mojo (rumored to spark backstage brawls), and the life-threatening risks the Most Wanted Treasures crew took to track it down.
From the Sheik’s backstage camel-clutch vendettas to Vince McMahon’s secret obsession with erasing the “Hulkamania upset,” this podcast is a true-crime rampage through wrestling’s darkest taboos. With gritty reenactments, unearthed FBI files, and Sheik’s own unfiltered fury from beyond the grave, press play and join the hunt—before the truth gets “humble-jobbied” into oblivion.
