WWE Hall of Famer “Superstar” Billy Graham was one of the biggest stars during his golden days in the industry. Fans of the golden ages fondly remember his rivalry with Bruno Sammartino for the WWWF Heavyweight Championship. He sadly passed away recently and now it appears his funeral services will be held this week.

Billy Graham sadly passed away on May 17th at the age of 79 after long and painful battle with numerous health issues. Fans all lost hope when his wife was advised by doctors to pull him from life support earlier this month.

The pro wrestling legend will be remembered as one of the most influential wrestlers, as quite a few pro wrestlers were inspired by his charisma and his mannerisms in general. People continue to mourn his unfortunate demise and yet, cherish his memories at the same time.
