WWE News: Ariya Daivari Says Death Threats Were Mostly From Iranians, Samoa Joe Removed From MSG Show

– Ariya Daivari provided a little more information about the death threats he received for his segment at Greatest Royal Rumble. Daivari said earlier on Tuesday that he had threats on his life for the segment, which saw him come out with an Iranian flag and run down the new Saudi Arabian WWE signees before getting beaten down.

After the Iron Sheik’s Twitter account told Daivari to tell the “Saudi Jabronians” to take a walk, Daivari noted that the threats were mostly from Iranians:

Unfortunately, it's many threats coming from Iranians
