Bret Hart and Sgt Slaughter are both WWE Hall of Famers but they are also stars in the animated TV world!

The Hitman appeared in an episode of one of the longest-running TV shows in history, The Simpsons. Hart starred in the episode “The Old Man and The Lisa” in 1997 where he plays himself. The episode revolves mostly around Lisa Simpson but it was a cool appearance by Bret Hart that stole the whole episode.

Hart also starred in a few non-animated TV roles where he played characters in TV shows like The Immortal and Lonesome Dove. Most recently, he was the voice of The Gas Mechanic in the Corner Gas Animated Series.

As for SGT Slaughter, he took his on-screen persona of the hardcore drill sergeant and took it as a lead in the animated GI: Joe series.

Slaughter starred as himself (at least his wrestling on-screen character) as he was a sergeant on team GI Joe. He appeared in well over 30 different animated episodes and a few animated movies.

He is also credited with appearing as himself in the Super Mario Brothers animated series based on the famous video game.

Other than these two projects, he has been doing stuff related to the wrestling business since the early 90s and has not appeared in any other non-wrestling-related TV projects.
