The Iron Sheik, Jay Leno and Johngy

The Iron Sheik had a lengthy and successful career in pro wrestling. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005.
This past June, he joined a growing group of celebs who mentioned my alleged resemblance to Jay Leno. Previously, I have written about the Honky Tonk Man, Terri Runnels and Patrick Warburton making the same observation.
Actually, at this show in NY, Runnels was sitting next to the Iron Sheik. The 3 of us had a little conversation about it. Later, the Sheik and I talked about Leno's new show and how I should do conventions as a Leno look-alike.
I don't really see it, but who am I to argue with the Iron Sheik?

I say make money from it. Retire. Then who cares what they call you.

Hook me up and I'll give you a very fair manager's cut.
