Sgt. Slaughter has been vocal about WWE star Lacey Evans using his gimmick and his submission Cobra Clutch. The Hall of Famer recently responded to a fan claiming that he is a stolen valor because he isn't a real marine and just played a character in the Stamford-based promotion.
Slaughter thinks Evans should have asked him before she started using his gimmick. He has bashed The Sassy Southern Belle multiple times in the past few weeks.
Fans came in support of Evans, who is a former marine, and called out Slaughter for going after her even though he isn't a real-life marine. The WWE Hall of Famer recently replied to the claims of stolen valor.
He took to Twitter and gave an example of Hollywood star John Wayne, who was known for military and war movies. Slaughter wrote that John Wayne has been in many military and war movies but wasn't a real marine either.
