Why Sgt. Slaughter's Iraqi Heel Gimmick Backfired on the WWF

Sgt. Slaughter was one of the WWF's greatest American heroes, a patriotic icon who transcended wrestling as the face of G.I. Joe. But in 1990, Vince McMahon turned him into an Iraqi sympathizer during the Gulf War, creating the most controversial angle in WWE history. In this wrestling documentary, we look at why Sgt. Slaughter's Iraqi heel gimmick backfired on the WWF, from the nuclear heat at the Royal Rumble to the death threats that forced him to wear a bulletproof vest. This is the story of how nuclear heat nearly destroyed WrestleMania VII, and why exploiting a real war ended badly for Vince McMahon. ► CLICK TO SUBSCRIBE:    / @stunnedbywrestling   ► More wrestling documentaries in this playlist:    • Wrestling Documentaries   ► More 90's wrestling in this playlist:    • 90's Wrestling   #wrestling #90swrestling #wrestlingdocumentary
