Hassan now works as a Junior High Principal following his stint in the spotlight
Muhammed Hassan is another WWE star who Vince McMahon decided to change up at the wrong time. Hassan and his manager Daivari were Arab-Americans upset by the wave of anti-Muslim sentiment that had taken hold of America following 9/11 and loudly claimed that they wanted respect from the WWE Universe.

Of course, this was a gimmick that gave WWE a lot of heat and a few days before the London Bombings back in 2005, there was a lot of pressure on WWE to take Hassan off their network by UPN. Increasing public pressure forced WWE to drop Hassan's character completely and they were both then sent back to developmental and released from his contract a few weeks later.
Hassan, whose real name is Mark Copani was recently named the new principal of Fulton Junior High School in New York according to WrestlingInc.
