One of the hardest things about getting older is when all of your childhood heroes start to pass away. I always used to talk about my “Mount Rushmore of Men” from my youth. In no particular order they were Burt Reynolds (“The Bandit”), Lee Majors (“The Six Million Dollar Man”), Adam West (“Batman”), and pro wrestler, Ric Flair. It might have also included another wrestler, Superstar Billy Graham. Reynolds and West are no longer with us and Billy Graham is now on life support.

Before there was Ric or Hulk Hogan, Superstar Billy Graham was the man. In fact, as you watch this you can see the influence.
Graham has been on life support for weeks battling a myriad of problems. Per TMZ Sports, according to his wife Valerie, the situation is indeed grim. “Please urgent prayers needed for my husband. The doctors wanted to remove him from life support tonight. I refused. He’s a fighter and his will is strong even if his body isn’t. God is our hope.”
Graham’s real name is Eldrige Wayne Coleman. Back in the day, he was an iconic figure and champion in the American Wrestling Alliance and the World Wide Wrestling Federation (Now known as WWE). Along the way he mentored the likes of Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair. The latter of which spoke on social media about his friend yesterday.
