The spectacle surrounding Mayor Rob Ford grew even more surreal on Wednesday with a city hall visit from troubled ex-wrestler Iron Sheik.

The Sheik, who is managed by Toronto impresario brothers Page and Jian Magen, showed up outside Ford's office and denounced the mayor of the city whose name he temporarily forgot.

The Sheik, in a wheelchair, brayed Ford's name through the glass front door of the mayor's office. Ford did not emerge, and a city security guard twice admonished the former WWF champion to quiet down.

The Sheik has himself struggled with cocaine and alcohol. Asked for his thoughts on Ford's admission of crack use, the Sheik responded: “Exactly.” He eventually said it was “bad,” and he asked “what kind of mayor” Toronto has.
