the problem wouldn't solely be the name. if someone else owns his name, they surely own his likeness as well. so, you may be able to get around the name by calling him The Sarge, or something similar, but if they have to change the characters appearance so he doesn't look like Sgt. Slaughter either, what would be the point of making some random figure that looks nothing like him and is named something different as well?

ThreeHGame is right. Hasbro would have to work out a deal with Jakks Paciffic. Most likely that would have to include a deal with the WWE as well, which brings McMahon back into the picture. I would think the best shot would be for Hasbro to "lease" the molds of Roadblock, Gung-Ho, and a few others to Jakks for a limited run of "WWF/WWE Superstars" in the same scale as Modern Era GI Joe. Odds of that are a million to one. Big companies aren't known for shareing their products. Still, imagine the line you could have if it was like an '80s superstar series (Sgt. Slaughter, Rowdy Pipper, Hulk Hogan [like there would be any doubt], the Iron Sheik, and wasn't there a Russian dude).
