The Iron Sheik's Talk Show?

Partial Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter

Last week on Raw, Iron Sheik asked Jonathan Coachman if he could have a talk show. Coach said he would take it under advisement. Raw head writer Brian Gewirtz is the one behind a possible Iron Sheik talk show segment on WWE programming. He's pushing for WWE to sign Sheik to a talent contract, although he's in the minority at this point. There is fear of putting him under contract because not a month seems to go by where he's not involved in some wacky incident in which he's making a scene. It's one thing for Sheik to be involved in a monthly disaster when he's not under contract, but it's another thing when he actually is. And with Sheik, it's not a question of if, but when.
