Billy Condolian is a Greek wrestler who claims to be a Greek God. " I have the body of Adonis" he shouts. He is at odds with many of his fellow Greeks, Big John Tolios, for one, is not happy with Billy's arrogance. Condolian began training for his Pro career as a teenager in the late 1970's. Like his colleague, Con Iakovidis, he knew he wanted to be a Pro Wrestler, and like Con, Billy too wanted to be the best.
He was taken under the guidance of former greats Roy Heffernen, Ronnie Miller and the late Larry O' Day. These legendary Australian superstars of the 60's and 70's were among those who schooled young Billy. It was the 1970's and Australian Championship Wrestling was no longer being programmed for TV. A once thriving live circuit was facing a downward spiral. The top stars were leaving our shores for the USA and Japan. The Clubs running shows became fewer and fewer and Billy Condolian was only a rookie just starting to make a name for himself. The diminished live circuit was where Billy dug in. It was men like Condolian who stayed here and kept the spirit of Australian Championship Wrestling alive.
During the 80's Billy Condolian faced all competition he had some classic matches against Wayne Pickford, Big John Tolios, Kenny Medlin and the Samoan Warrior. He claims to have beaten everybody but this is not completely accurate, to his credit he has beaten most of the top Australian stars during the 1980's but often by bending the rules. He has made many wrestlers loose their cool with his arrogant remarks and his overrated opinion of himself grinds on the nerves of many people.
Fans describe Condolian as unapproachable, rude and as one ringsider put it "He loves himself".The surly, beefy Condolian is not concerned with what the majority of fans say about him. He boasts " Listen mate, I am the most talented and the most experienced wrestler in Australia, I am the essence of Greek Classicism, I am like the Greek Gods of ancient times reincarnated in a modern day perfect human form. I have the best body out of all the Greek Wrestlers, much better than that punk Con Iakovidis". This much is true Billy Condolian is an aggressive wrestler he combines classic Greco Roman maneuvers with a Pro style that was shaped by some legendary Australian superstars Roy Heffernen, Ronnie Miller and the late Larry O' Day were but a few of the greats who helped make Billy who he is today.
