Graham was one of the first professional wrestlers to achieve popularity principally on the basis of his character rather than his wrestling skills.

Career

A former football player and bodybuilder, Coleman selected his ring name as a tribute to the famous evangelist Billy Graham, at one of whose revival meetings he had converted to Christianity. The name was used to make him a kayfabe brother to the earlier Graham Brothers (Eddie Graham, Dr. Jerry Graham and Luke Graham).

World Wide Wrestling Federation: The First Stint (1975-1978)

Graham defeated Bruno Sammartino for the WWF Championship on April 30, 1977 in Baltimore, MD. When other heels had won the WWWF/WWF title, they had almost immediately lost it, serving as a conduit between face reigns. Graham, a "rulebreaker," held the title for almost a year, including winning several rematches against Sammartino. To this day, Graham's 296-day reign is the longest single world title reign of any heel in WWE history. Bruno Leopoldo Francesco Sammartino (born October 6, 1935), is a former professional wrestler, best known for being the longest-running champion of the World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF), holding the title across two reigns for over 12 years in total, as well as the longest World Heavyweight Championship reign in...

Graham suggested to Vincent J. McMahon that Ivan Koloff should turn on him, thus starting a feud that made Graham a babyface. McMahon refused because of a handshake deal to make Bob Backlund the new babyface champ. He did not want to go back on his word. It was also unheard of for a character like Graham to be a face, because McMahon and many old promoters saw Graham as a heel. Fans were making Graham a popular figure on their own — even Roberta Morgan's 1979 kayfabe book Main Event had to admit that, "Although he is a rulebender, [Graham] has managed to stay very popular with the fans, probably because of his skill, strength, and colorful personality" — but the era of explicit and intentional "cool heels" did not come until the 1990s with the likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock and the nWo, and then later in the 2000s with Triple H, Chris Jericho and Evolution.

National Wrestling Alliance: The Second Stint (1983-1986)

After a run in the Florida territory, first as a member of Kevin Sullivan's Army of Darkness and later as the group's opponent, Graham spent some time in the NWA's Jim Crockett Promotions working for Paul Jones in his feud against Jimmy Valiant. It was during this time that the Superstar returned to the tie-dyed look, growing a full goatee and dyeing the mustache blond.

World Wrestling Federation: The Third Stint (1986-1988)

Graham returned to the WWF one more time in 1986 as a face. After a few appearances, it was diagnosed that Graham required a hip replacement, the result of steroids deteriorating his body. The footage of Graham's hip replacement surgery was shown on WWF TV as a means to promote Graham's comeback. He returned in mid-1987 and feuded with Butch Reed for a few months, but the strain on his hip as well as his ankles also deteriorating proved to be too much. One Man Gang retired him from active competition permanently with a big splash maneuver on the concrete floor during a match against Reed. Don Muraco came to Graham's aide, and the Superstar became Muraco's manager. Graham was scheduled to wrestle in the main event in the first-ever Survivor Series, but Muraco took his place once Graham retired.

Graham also testified against McMahon when the steroid allegations became a federal trial after Vince was accused of distributing steroids to his wrestlers.
