With the sad news on the current health of ‘Superstar’ Billy Graham, Ric Flair has spoken of how he was one of his heroes.

‘Superstar’ Billy Graham was a huge star in the 1970s and into the 1980s thanks to his imposing figure. Graham has openly spoken about how steroids helped him along the way. In April 1977, Graham ended Bruno Sammartino’s long title reign to become the WWWF Champion before he lost the title to Bob Backlund in February 1978.

Over the last few days it has been reported that Graham is currently on life support, which the doctors seemingly feel he should be taken off of, and his wife has been told to prepare for the worst.

Now, 16-time World Champion Ric Flair has spoken on the subject, taking to social media to call Graham one of his heroes and an influence on so many in the professional wrestling industry.

So Sad To Hear About Billy Graham’s Health!! Make No Mistake- Talk About The Influence He Made On ME And So Many Others! Hulk, Dusty Etc! You’re Beautiful. Bonnie Dyed My Hair In 1972!! Stay Strong My Mentor! FYI- You And Dusty Rhodes Were My Heroes! You Made Me!

Naturally, everyone at TJRWrestling wishes the best for Graham, his family and friends.
