#2 Legendary WWE wrestler Billy Graham wrestled Terrible Ted
Billy Graham was an incredibly popular wrestler in the 1970s, and his character inspired the likes of Hulk Hogan and Jesse Ventura years later. He is a former WWE Champion, and defeated fellow wrestler Bruno Sammartino for the coveted belt, which he held for just over nine months.

While he was in the San Fransisco territory, Billy Graham was asked to wrestle a bear. As per his autobiography, Graham found the idea of wrestling a bear ridiculous and stated that it killed his heat as a villain. The pro-wrestling legend didn't mince his words while opening up about his experience wrestling a bear.
"I can still feel the beast's coarse, wiry fur, smell its foul breath, and hear it snorting through its muzzle as it looked me dead in the eyes. Ted wasn't a happy bear, and I wasn't a happy wrestler," said Graham.
Billy Graham was recognized for his contributions to pro-wrestling in 2004, and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame that year. Graham has been openly critical of WWE's product since then.
