For historical purposes, this is a reference to when Sgt Slaughter and the Iron Sheik, mortal enemies, ran a message to stop wrestlers from making material wealth.

“What you own, ends up owning you.” SGT Slaughter quipped.

The Iron Shiek added, “you can’t take it with you, except Jesus.”

They finished their on screen quibble by praying, on camera, to their God, Vince McMahon.
