Muhammad Hassan (wrestler)

Marc Julian Copani is an American retired professional wrestler and educator. He is best known for his appearances in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) from 2004 to 2005, where he portrayed an Arab American under the ring name Muhammad Hassan. His career came to an abrupt end when a controversial terrorist angle coincided with the London bombings of July 7, 2005, leading the television network UPN to pressure WWE to remove Copani's character from television. Following his departure from WWE, he stopped wrestling; instead, he started working as an educator. Copani returned to wrestling in 2018 at The Dynasty event King of Thrones.
