Sgt. Slaughter - WWE Hall of Fame 2014 WWE Toy Wrestling Action Figure by Mattel!
Sgt. Slaughter burst onto the WWE scene back in 1980 clad in military fatigues, sunglasses and a whistle, all signs that this former Marine drill instructor was intent on dominating his foes.
Immediately, he requested that the Marine Corps Hymn be played when he entered the ring, the advent of entrance music in WWE.
For years a hated rulebreaker, Slaughter's patriotism won over fans when he tired of the anti-American rhetoric of the Iron Sheik, which sparked one of the most heated rivalries in WWE history.
In 1990, Slaughter returned to WWE as an Iraqi sympathizer, which enraged the WWE Universe.
Despite this, Slaughter defeated Ultimate Warrior to win the WWE Championship at Royal Rumble 1991.
After being defeated by a red, white and blue-clad Hulk Hogan and months of soul searching, he plead that. "I want my country back." The WWE Universe embraced him again, finishing his epic career as an American hero.
