The only one I can think of is Khosrow Vaziri, AKA The Iron Sheik who, in addition to being a former WWF World Champ in pro wrestling, was also an accomplished amateur wrestler, and I think he either wrestled for or coached the Iranian wrestling team in the Olympics. He was also a bodyguard for the Shah of Iran at one point as well.
