The day after Sgt. Slaughter returns to wrestling, a G.I. Joe action figure is abducted by insurgents in Iraq. Coincidence?
Posted by Stephen Silver at February 1, 2005 11:58 PMIf Sgt. Slaughter starts wrestling on a regular basis, I might take a hostage or two myself.

P.S. Who connected you to that site? Or are you on the WWF e-mail list?
