    SGT. SLAUGHTER Inducted by Davey O’Hannon Listen up, maggots! The Sarge was once beautiful, and that attracted enemy fire. In 1974, “Beautiful” Bobby Remus was preening around a ring in Vancouver, British Columbia, when he heard fans laughing. “I looked behind me and there was Bob Ramstead behind me blowing me kisses,” Remus said. That night, Slaughter told his wife that “Beautiful” Bobby was getting a dishonorable discharge. He cut his hair, returned it to its normal dark brown, and wrestled as “Bruiser” Bob Remus, one step in the transformation to the jut-jawed, gravel-voiced Marine Sgt. Slaughter, the first celebrity to become a G.I. Joe doll. In 1984, after Remus flipped from a decade as a heel to an American hero, Hasbro inked him as part of its G.I. Joe product line. Remus voiced his own character in the animated G.I. Joe TV series, had his own action figures, and worked as a spokesman for Hasbro. As befits a future soldier, Remus got hooked on wrestling through clandestine ops. Born in August 1948 in Meeker County, Minnesota, and raised west of Minneapolis, Remus was four or five years old, sleeping on a pullout couch, when he heard what sounded like people being killed in an adjacent room. “Here was my father and bunch of his friends and my uncles yelling at the TV screen, watching professional wrestling,” he said. “I started to fake like I was sleeping on Saturdays and I’d crawl out there and watch the show without them even knowing it.” After he graduated from high school, served in the Marines, and joined his dad’s roofing company, Remus trained with Verne Gagne.

Not many people know this, but I’ve always considered myself an artist of sorts. Ever since I was a young kid, I invariably find myself passing the time by doodling, drawing, and, on occasion, even painting. In the space between my paper and pencil, and in those moments when inspiration would strike, my imagination would run amok and these bigger-than-life personas - football players and comic book characters and, of course, professional wrestlers - would come to life. I wasn’t aware of this until much later, but for all those years my mother would quietly steal away my drawings, saving them for all prosperity, and perhaps giving her a way to relive all of those memories of me as a child. That’s exactly what happened to me when she showed me those old sketches of Iron Man and Walter Payton and Fred Flintstone and Hulk Hogan. I found myself instantly transported back to a time where things were simpler and characters were real and the art was pure. I get a lot of really similar feelings when I look at the incredible art that Rob Schamberger has shared with 2 foreward us all. Rob’s passion for art and for professional wrestling struck me immediately as someone that has equally grown to love and appreciate both, and by Adam Pearce truth be told I am extremely jealous of his talents.

  • WWE and Their Flawed Hall of Fame
    WWE And Their Flawed Hall Of Fame Author : COMMENTARY - Once again, WWE has stirred up a bit of controversy with its latest Hall of Fame honoree. News broke Monday afternoon that Beth Phoenix would be joining a star-studded class that includes Kurt Angle, Diamond Dallas Page, The Rock and Roll Express and Teddy Long. Phoenix is certainly worthy of such distinction, but as a fan and writer, I question decision based on other women who are just as worthy and are still awaiting the call to the hallowed hall. [DavidL] Don’t misconstrue what I am saying about Phoenix and her honor. It is well deserved. However, I think there are other females who came before her aren’t part of the fraternity, most notably Chyna, Velvet McIntyre, Miss Elizabeth, and Sable. While Phoenix was the most dominant performer of her time in the business, these other women are more than worthy. WWE’s Hall of Fame selection process is as political as any invitation to Cooperstown or Canton. And so it would seem that anyone who put on a pair of boots and won a title or two is given a key to the golden city, past performers are shuffled to the back of the line as recently retired stars are getting the accolades. The 36-year-old Phoenix (now married to Edge in real life), is a three-time Women’s Champion and a one- time Diva’s Champion and only the second woman to compete in the Royal Rumble match. She was a woman amongst girls in a time when parading around in bras and panties was more important than holding a title.
