I might add he was a good friend to the best leader in the worlds history Saddam Hussein. He had a monster run when managing Slaughter as WWF champion. Slaughter during this time wasand possibility the most hated heel of all time.
“ General Adnan, real name Adnan Al-Kaissy, has passed away at the age of 84. The news was first broke by legendary announcer Ken Resnick on Facebook.
Adnan is most known for his time in the WWF/WWWF, where he held the World Tag Team Championships with Chief Jay Strongbow and was a manager for Sgt. Slaughter. His career in the company was significant, as he was the first Iraqi to compete in a WWF/WWWF ring. Adnan also spent time in the AWA and the NWA.
After a 30+ year career in wrestling, Adnan retired from the ring in 1998. Later on that year, he went on to form his own promotion, the World All-Star Wrestling Alliance, with Ken Patera. The promotion held their last event in 2000.
In 2005, Adnan released an autobiography titled 'The Sheik of Baghdad: Tales of Celebrity and Terror from Pro Wrestling's General Adnan'. Adnan was featured as a playable character in WWE 2K15 and WWE 2K16.”

Heat magnet in AWA. Had an all time great ring name as Billy White Wolf during his 70s WWWF run. He really did go to school with Saddam and became a huge star in Iraq where I heard he drew some huge crowds.
RIP
