Jim Cornette Reviews A&E's Sgt. Slaughter Biography

[@wilcee238]

Sgt. Slaughter was the IC champ in my 80’s Gi-Joe wrestling fed. Tomax and Xamont were the tag champs; but I had to bury Snake Eyes because he couldn’t cut a promo

[@MrAnthimos112]

Jesus this comment just brought me back to my childhood, lol. GI Joe and wrestling, mostly Jim Crockett's NWA, were my two passions as a kid. I would try and make my Joes represent certain wrestlers. I remember almost all of them. I had a native american Joe named "Spirit" who was my Wahoo McDaniel. There was "Recondo" whos mustache made him Paul Jones. "Quick Kick" was Ricky Steamboat. I forget there names but two of Zartans dreadnoks were my road warriors. "Dr. Mindbender" was bald so he was Gary Hart. "Roadblock " was the Junk Yard Dog. And I remember there was a blonde guy in a Hawaiian shirt named "Chuckles" that was my Ric Flair who I would team up with three of sgt slaughters "renegades" to make my own 4 horseman. Good times! I wish I still had them. I think I owned just about every GI Joe figure between 85 and 90. They all became hand me downs to my nephews and are long gone today.

[@therealnickynurotic8930]

​@MrAnthimos112 you helped sculpt their childhood by giving them those figures

[@charlesshoffner4201]

This might be my favorite KZbin comment of all time, so I will gladly chime in.... I was never a big collector of Joes, but I had plenty of other toys to make my fed, from WWF to He-Man to Dick Tracy to Captain Planet to Power Rangers.... Captain Planet's Duke Nukem was my tallest action figure, so he chokeslammed his way to many victories and the Winged Eagle. The Red Ninja Ranger had the most articulation, so he was favorite to throw everyone around with. The Black Ninja Ranger superkicked the competition. Blue Ninja Ranger threw the Roaring Elbow with pinpoint precision. The Black and Red Zeo Rangers were the Brothers of Destruction. Dick Tracy and Sam Ketchum were the biggest babyface tag team I had. However, the king of my ring was the ultimate Power Rangers baddie....Lord Zedd. Putting many opponents away with his dreaded DVD, followed by his devastating tope rope leg drop. He ruled with an iron fist, until a debilitating leg injury derailed his career ( his leg broke off, and I had to superglue it back on. He was never the same. Sigh.) Those were the days.

[@Hammerhead547]

My introduction to Sgt, Slaughter didn't actually come from seeing him on AWA or WWF tv. It came from and old USHRA (United States Hot Rod Association) videotape called Blood, Sweat And Gears where he and his "Battle Batallion" (a bunch of local indie guys from the area) were featured doing a three round tug of war against Bigfoot as a special attraction during the USHRA's tour in 1987. I'm fairly sure that the footage used in the video was actually shot at the USHRA event at the Metrodome in Minneapolis in january of 1987 because the video was released in the summer of that year and pretty much all of the footage used in its production was culled form tv broadcasts in the late months of '86 and the early months of '87.

[@DefendYoungstown]

I vaugely remember the tug of war with Bigfoot stuff... another thing people forget with exactly how big Bigfoot was back then. Also, wasn't there a later version of the "Battle Batallion" where Slaughter was swapped with Hogan? And I think it was also about the time when Gravedigger became the draw for the trucks instead of big blue?

[@ethankeller1835]

OMG I remember the commercials for that tape! That's awesome!

[@Hammerhead547]

@DefendYoungstown WCW did a monster truck sumo match at Halloween Havoc in the late 90's (I want to say '98) where hogan and the giant each had a custom bodied truck, hogan won the match and the segment ended ended with giant falling off the roof of Cobo Hall. Both of the trucks used were built by Bigfoot 4X4X4, one was a reskinned bigfoot 14 and the other was an old snakebite truck from 1994. They actually had bob chandler on the broadcast as an "expert commentator" for the match, but they didn't explain who he was or that his company built the trucks.

[@Hammerhead547]

@@ethankeller1835 There's also a hilarious bit at the end where there's a "music video" for big bad and blown and sarge is standing in the back of a super modified 4X4 pulling truck miming along to the song on guitar, but he's not even trying to pretend he's playing along too it. But the funniest part is that the guitar he's using is a budweiser logo shaped guitar that they scotch tapped a piece of white printer paper that says "slaughter" on it too, so it's a budweiser shaped logo guitar that says "Slaughteriser" instead.

There was a huge buildup and speculation which major star they would get.
