What about Pepper Gomez ?Those two guys would come to our swim club in the early 70's..(Sebastapol Ca)The water would rise 1 foot when those two jumped in. They were so huge compaired to normal people.
He will admit that Dusty Rhodes taught him the lingo and style which Rhodes (swagger /persona) got off of one his black wrestler friend he admired in the early early 1960's !!!
Was happy to have seen Bruno in person back in 96. Hated backlund but just his acting persona. Which means he did it good. He was one of the greatest pure wrestlers in history. My brother would always use the cf chicken wing on me and I had to submit. Or the sharp shooter. I had to lay there and pretend I was dying lol. Loved wrestling in the late 80s early 90s. I wasn't around before that so I don't know what it was like before that. I know it's not very good nowadays tho in my opinion
its a honour to be able to listen to this man so close to his departure i hope he will live a long time and he empties his heart of all that he needs and wants. bless him .. blessings.
Watch that and tell me that Ventura & Hogan didn't steal the gimmick. Later on Steiner poached the goatee. But An entire generation of wrestlers copied Superstar's look and promo style. Hell Vince started calling all of his wrestlers "Superstars".
steroidsR4losers lies. Some dudes even with extra test still can't get gains with tons of steroids. You still haft to lift a shit ton to get the muscle fibers breaking and filling up with blood.
Man, I just discovered these outstanding interviews, thanks to THE HANNIBAL TV. I love Superstar Billy Graham. There is no doubt that he is "in the know" regarding anyone in wrestling, bodybuilding, and anyone who trained at Gold's Gym. Brutally honest
Back in the 80s Hogan was showing kids a shake that he drank. He threw all kinds of crap in that drink, even a raw egg and egg shell! But there was this one pill, he called it his python pill. No more elaboration at all on that one pill that he called his python pill. Everyone knew it was a steroid, lol.
anadrol more commonly known as an Abomb......make ya swell up like a water balloon but strength gains thru da roof!!...very hepatoxic tho you can only run it 2-3 weeks at a time or else itll rot out your insides
Hogan gets my respect, he got into the business in 1976 as an OUTSIDER! This man got his leg fractured by Hiro Matsuda, and came back and took more punishment for a full year!

I saw him down on the pier shooting commercial once. Girlfriends ran into him at nature path grocery on cleveland. fucked up what the radio DJ did to him
Hulk hogan isn't just a person, it's also a brand, a business, a family friendly business. To openly admit to taking drugs would put an end to all of it. It's also why we have so many 'fake nattys' in the fitness world and why most wrestlers to this day who are clearly using drugs all claim they aren't. It makes business sense to either not talk about drugs or flat out deny using them.
Exactly. These wrestlers are like comic book characters to kids. Adults are well aware that those giants are on heavy doses of steroids. They have to be to look like they do and to recover so fast from the beatings they take in the ring. I have a problem with the guys that refuse to admit to steroid use. Guys like Dwayne Johnson that obviously is taking steroids but refuses to acknowledge it.
Steriods it self doesn’t make you big but it makes it easier with recovery to make you workout more the the bigger guys are on hgh which causes the bubble guts
@@captmorgan101472 Since when does he he have to open up his Private Life to you . I mean do go around like a Open Book 📖 to Strangers out there that they know everything about your Personal 💻 Life .

Hogan definitely copied this mans persona in his career. Look at Superstar Billy Graham when he was younger and you can see where Hogan got his character.
Such refreshing honesty...zero bullshit..said take a lot of steroids and knew exactly how Hulk broke in. I've heard Hulk casually mention they messed with him and wouldn't let him in wrestling until he took a beating(Hulk says broke his leg) from that Japanese guy Matsuya. Graham knew they were sort of hazing Hulk. Hulk even took SO MUCH of Grahams style. I've heard Graham before Hogan talk about his "24 inch pythons" and even "Whatcha gonna do brother?".....True original pioneer of wrestling and straight honest man. Too bad he missed a little of the loot that came with the WWF revolution in the 80s.
He wasn’t a fraud... Steroids were legal then... and if he didn’t take steroids, he may not have become Hulk Hogan as we know him... He was larger than life... and as a big guy myself who never took steroids , I still strive to become him knowing I will never be that big
@@tomwk196 like Superstar billy graham said...If it wasn't for steroids you would have never heard of Terry Bollea. He can't wrestle this is a known fact in the business.
Hulk Hogan used to have an apartment in Atlanta by the Airport, I meet him there because my Father knew someone who lived in the building, then in Germany around 1990 I meet him again at a club in ludwigsburg Germany at a club called the Rock Park. Terry was vacationing there and I was a Soldier in the Federal Republic of Germany for the United States Army 5th Corps under General Colin Powell. Anyway, I even sat with him and drunk beer with him.
I joined the Marine Corps in 1986 and was an avid weight lifter/bodybuilder. The gym on Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville NC was the first time I ever saw steroids. Dianabol or Dbol was all around the gym. I was too young and too scared to touch the stuff but I saw some guys with tree stumps for legs passing them around.
Refreshing to hear his honesty, he is out of the business obviously as candid as he answers these questions that would get you blackballed today. Reality is , steroids have taken countless wrestling-stars from this world, too soon…
A man who knows his stuff. He certainly lost size and muscle in late 91. Mania 7! He was jacked, by survivor series 91 he was soft, stayed big and soft through 92 until he left. Came back in 93 pretty slim for him. I’m an interview in a UK magazine they said he was 235lbs.

When your gimmick is say your prayers and eat your vitamins like Hogans was its hard to admit you did all that with steroids. The adults should of been able to look at Hogan and realize he was using them.
Hogan does have a huge head. I saw it for myself at a Sheraton hotel I used to work in Universal Studios. This was around 1999 and Hogan was wrestling for the WCW. At the time he was down to about 6'4 or 6'5, but still solid 260 lbs ripped
THE HANNIBAL TV McMahon is a Duche. Didnt even induct stieners into his fake HOF!! No wrestler in wwf ever had the moves as the Younger Scott steiner (pre poppa pump)!
What? Wrestlers use steroids? When I was a kid I remember the Hulk saying that if I took my vitamins I could become strong and have muscles like him. I can deal with the whole steroid thin but the lies are what hurts the most. I kind of feel cheated. Even as a kid I knew they were all taking steroids but the bold lies from someone that you looked up to and trusted are was what hurt the most. Still love him as a wrestler but it changed my whole outlook and respect for him on a personal level. I use to go to Pro bodybuilding competitions and dream of being huge one day. Steroids were always a secret and never openly discussed among the bodybuilders nor were they discussed openly with the fans. These days it is openly discussed and you can even go online and find out what bodybuilders are stacking these days. Now as of the present or in the bodybuilding world today, synthol is frowned upon but some idiots are still shooting this into their bodies and you must have some type of serious insecurities in order to inject that crap. Anyway, thanks for the great childhood memories Hulk. Your steroid use never changed my views about you. Your lies did Brother.
I love how candid he is about gear. I have been a bodybuilder for about 10 years and used gear for 8 and everyone says the golden era guys never used big doses, well 1 shot everyday of test is probably damn near 1000mg a week!

I love his honesty here. Warrior was also honest and said he took steroids too. I disagree with that method however I agree with the outright honesty of people who just come right out and say, yeah I did it. I respected John cena a lot less after his CNN interview when he said, I can't tell you that I have and I can't tell you that I haven't. 0 respect for that.
The wrestlers of WWF/WWE are a prime case study in 'overuse' of 'roids(Vince McMahon is the Ultimate User IMO') ! Is there a safe limit? Only time will tell ....
I remember seeing this dude on NWA wrestling back in the late 60's I didn't know that they even had such a thing as steroids back then but I sure knew he had the Biggest arms I'd ever seen made Jerry Lawler and those dudes look like olive oil.
I thought I read an article years back that Graham had either lost his legs or could not use his legs anymore due to sterroid usage & that he went talked to young people not to use sterroids.
anything is bad if you abuse it..even too much oxygen can fuck you up..ive tried every drug known to man almost..only shit that hooked me..nicotine and opiates..those are the worst addictions..imo
Just switch sides, lol. I always appreciated Grahams honesty, he never denies the "shortcuts" he took, but it was also ridiculous how Wrestling became the boogeyman of steroids when every sport engages in it from amateur to Pro levels, Lance could have taken a lesson from Hogan. It says so much about Hogan he would smear the man that gave him the advice of his life.
Lance Armstrong wasn't on Steroids you do know there are other PED's than steroid correct? Lance was on EPO which mass produces red blood cells which is said to carry oxygen to the muscles giving you better endurance. It has nothing to do with muscle growth or testosterone production.
of course hogan lied about steroids. what was he going to do, cut his own throat and forgo his multi-million dollar per year career. who wouldn't have lied in his place? get real.
Billy Graham looked old when he was young but he’s barely aged since 1985. Looks basically the same.
True
I thought the exact same thing
I think he's aged from the neck on down.
Steroids can age you faster
He has the same genetics as Hulk Hogan.
Billy is a 100% class act.A lot of the other retired wrestlers are clowns.Thnks Billy for being so transparent.
Jeff Mayo just ignore clowns

Billy Graham is awesome. If it wasn't for him there never would have been a Hulk Hogan.
Please, don’t how that against him
Make the man some eggs woman
there wouldnt have been an inspiration to jesse the body ventura lol

Yep no way hogan was 6'7"or 6'6" in his life more like a strong 6'4" guy... Wwe has always exaggerated the height and weight of wrestlers
He was 6’6” in the 1970s till at least mid 1980s.
6'7 and 330 pounds at his biggest
Love hearing Superstar talk
Ladies and gents...the REAL Hulk Hogan.
Billy kept Hogan from quitting
Because Hogan built his brand on telling kids to say their prayers and eat their vitamins, he felt he would ruin his legacy if he admitted the truth.
Even Billy 's friend Arnold denied for years he took steroids.

Superstar Billy Graham. The man
I love his honesty here. Warrior was also honest and said he took steroids too. I disagree with that method however I agree with the outright honesty of people who just come right out and say, yeah I did it. I respected John cena a lot less after his CNN interview when he said, I can't tell you that I have and I can't tell you that I haven't. 0 respect for that.
All the biggest guys use that ..
I remember watching him as a kid long ass time ago he was great wrestler 🤘
Paul Heyman, Lanny Poffo, James Cornette, Arn Anderson, Vince Russo, And Superstar Billy Graham are all the Wrestler's I Can't Stand or Dislike !
Why
The wrestlers of WWF/WWE are a prime case study in 'overuse' of 'roids(Vince McMahon is the Ultimate User IMO') ! Is there a safe limit? Only time will tell ....
I remember seeing this dude on NWA wrestling back in the late 60's I didn't know that they even had such a thing as steroids back then but I sure knew he had the Biggest arms I'd ever seen made Jerry Lawler and those dudes look like olive oil.
Robert Reed jacked to the gills
There won't be another Superstar Billy Graham
I thought I read an article years back that Graham had either lost his legs or could not use his legs anymore due to sterroid usage & that he went talked to young people not to use sterroids.
I too heard that exact same story
Lol right if he can’t use his legs it’s definitely from the steroids and not from taking bumps on those hard rings for decades.
steroids werent always illegal...and it shouldnt be illlegal in pro wrestling..its entertainment...pre determined.
maddog76 it's technically considered a health risk....wwe doesn't want their stars dying early because of steroids
war hammers LOL to late for that
anything is bad if you abuse it..even too much oxygen can fuck you up..ive tried every drug known to man almost..only shit that hooked me..nicotine and opiates..those are the worst addictions..imo
maddog76 it's dangerous though
Caleb Willis they all fail steroids test & get off the hook as if it didn't happen
Billy Graham the originals
Just switch sides, lol. I always appreciated Grahams honesty, he never denies the "shortcuts" he took, but it was also ridiculous how Wrestling became the boogeyman of steroids when every sport engages in it from amateur to Pro levels, Lance could have taken a lesson from Hogan.
It says so much about Hogan he would smear the man that gave him the advice of his life.
Lance Armstrong wasn't on Steroids you do know there are other PED's than steroid correct? Lance was on EPO which mass produces red blood cells which is said to carry oxygen to the muscles giving you better endurance. It has nothing to do with muscle growth or testosterone production.
Well, duh who do u think gave hulk roids first?
The interviewer sounds like he was whispering from another room when asking Super Star Graham questions.
Legend . Love listening to superstar. R.I.P the man of the hour , too sweet to be sour.
Hogan was big but he never was cut and jacked like a Scott Steiner or ultimate warrior.
IronMeds He has cuts and then in the 90s and 2000s he got more cuts
@@actionfigurescollectionssu7854 Superstar was the best not Hogan.
@@actionfigurescollectionssu7854 I made a mistake..tgought you had said superstar wasn't cut. Hogan never looked good
Mike Tyson Hogan was bulkyer back in the 70s and 80s he got more cut up in the 90s and in the 2000s
@@actionfigurescollectionssu7854 I'm not a fan of Hogans physique. Superstar Billy Graham had the greatest physique ever in my opinion.
You the best superstar. My brothers n I luv ya since the 70's
Handsome Jimmy Valiant did this in 1970!
Awesome clip
of course hogan lied about steroids. what was he going to do, cut his own throat and forgo his multi-million dollar per year career. who wouldn't have lied in his place? get real.
Also during the reply to hulks tv interview he was lieing. He said you know many times. He was thinking up his reply.
Hogan started using right after High School. Went from 240 lbs. or so to 290 -300 in no time.
I can't believe Hogan hasn't keeled over yet like a lot of these other wrestlers from all the roids.
No. He was such an asshole that karma is going to let him be 100 but in a lot of pain
Did really people back then think that these bodies were all "vitamins"?lol
Yeah your mum did..
@@Jewtang HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!!!MOM JOKES!!!!!HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!.MY FAVORITE!!!!!....
@@MrMethadrine sorry I meant your dad :)
@@Jewtang You sure it wasn't your sister brother???
Superstar Billy Graham looked 1000 times better than Hulk Hogan and stronger too! Their physique wasn't even comparable.
