Say hello to the "Superstar"
I am the man of the hour, the one with the power, too sweet to be sour
Bios:
Billy Graham truly was a trail blazer in the sport of wrestling. From the look, the feathered boas, the tye-dye outfits, the mic skills, to the very persona, The Superstar is the very definition of the old cliche "often imitated, never duplicated".
It is well documented that Graham's look was later copied by the likes of Jesse Ventura and Hulk Hogan. Graham's fast talking, slick approach to promos was used by Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair and countless others. Quite simply Superstar Billy Graham was the embodiment of what would become today's "sports entertainment".
Superstar Billy Graham reached the very pinnacle of wrestling when he became the man to dethrone Bruno Sammartino, finally ending title reigns that had accounted for seven of the previous ten years. Graham would hold that tilte for just a shade under a year before dropping it to Mr. Bob Backlund.
During his title reign and chase, Graham repeatedly sold out Madison Square Garden, in fact Graham has been known to boast selling out MSG at a higher ratio than any other wrestler ever, a staggering 19 of the 20 times he main evented.
Sadly, all of his success came at a very heavy toll. In order to develop his Herculean physique, Graham had abused steroids. Claiming to have relied on the drugs for the better part of three decades; the steroids would eventually lead to Graham needing a liver transplant, two hip-replacement surgeries and both of his ankles to be fused causing the man to literally shrink from 6'4 to 6'0.
The psychological effects of the drugs were prevolent in Graham too, causing him to turn against Vince McMahon at one point and testifying against McMahon in federal court.
Today all has been forgiven though, Graham is now a member of the WWE Hall of Fame and exists as a reminder of the horrowing effects of steroid abuse .
ing perfect.
