YMMV / Sgt. Slaughter

Go To

  • Accidental Innuendo: When you are in a tag team called "The Privates"...

  • Ass Pull: Slaughter's 90s heel turn made sense. But even following the logic that caused him to turn heel, having him defect to Iraq just didn't make any sense at all.
  • Fan Nickname: "The Large Sarge", or just "The Sarge".
    • In México he is better known by his action figure's name overseas "Sargento Bravo" (Roughly translated as "Sergeant Rough").
  • X-Pac Heat: Inverted, when he defected to Iraq he got just the right type of heat for his actions and his character, but it worked too well as Robert Remus began getting death threats. Fans back then treated wrestling as more real than they do now. Like those who are seen as The Scrappy and Creator's Pet they wanted Slaughter to go away and die, but in this case literally.
