Sgt. Slaughter

Sgt. Slaughter (real name Robert Remus) was an American professional wrestler from the World Wrestling Federation. Slaughter's gimmick was that of a patriotic American soldier, an image he turned upside down in 1990, when his character turned against America and became an Iraqi sympathizer. Slaughter's heel persona was one of the most hated in wrestling history.

Career

Slaughter captured the WWF Championship at the 1991 Royal Rumble, defeating The Ultimate Warrior by nefarious means ("Macho Man" Randy Savage interfered), but lost the belt in a bloody match against Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania VII. After finishing the Hogan feud, Slaughter became a face again, saying "I want my country back." Slaughter still occasionally wrestles for WWE, but his primary role in the promotion now is that of a road agent.

Sgt. Slaughter was also part of the G.I. Joe cartoon, as a member of the G.I. Joe team and first appeared in an episode entitled " Arise, Serpentor, Arise!" and along with the traditional merchandising of WWE superstars, Sgt. Slaughter is one of few real people (William "The Refridgerator" Perry is another) to be immortalized as a G.I. Joe figure, and even appeared in G.I. Joe the Movie.

Sgt. Slaughter was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on March 14, 2004 at WrestleMania XX.
