WrestleVotes reported that WWE asked Sgt Slaughter to appear on Lacey Evans vignettes last January. However, the WWE Hall of Famer has rejected the offer.
“Adding to the Lacey Evans / Sgt. Slaughter story… back in January WWE asked Sarge to appear in the Lacey return vignettes, where he would “teach” & pass down the Cobra Clutch. Slaughter adamantly denied any involvement.”
