About this listen

He was the voice that could shake an arena and the presence that could command a nation.

From the squared circle of the wrestling world to the battlefields of pop culture, Sgt. Slaughter became more than a performer — he became a symbol.

In The Unauthorized Biography of Sgt. Slaughter, author Tim Simpson traces the life and legacy of Robert Remus, the man behind the mirrored sunglasses. From his early days under Verne Gagne’s demanding tutelage to his rise as one of wrestling’s most recognizable figures, this audiobook reveals the man who transformed discipline into art and patriotism into performance.

Follow the journey from the bright lights of the WWF to the legendary mail-away G.I. Joe figure that united millions of childhoods — and onward to his rebirth as commander of the modern Action Force. This is the story of loyalty tested, of conviction challenged, and of a hero who never stopped saluting.

A portrait of courage, controversy, and legacy — told with honesty, reverence, and heart.

The mission never ended. It simply changed battlefields.
