After four years of hard labor, he escaped and moved to the United States in 1920 with help from his uncle Garabed in Massachusetts.[5] Ekizian began professional wrestling while serving in the U.S. Navy. He became the Fleet Championship in the middleweight, light heavyweight, and heavyweight divisions. After an international match in Copenhagen, Ekizian was awarded the title of World Champion Navy Wrestler and, in 1927, was honored at a White House Reception by President Calvin Coolidge. Ekizian started a professional wrestling career in 1932 after leaving the navy and moved to Los Angeles. On April 24, 1936, Ekizian defeated World Heavyweight Champion Dick Shikat in front of over 8,000 spectators in Detroit, Michigan. A rematch for the title took place on May 5th in Madison Square Garden. Ekizian won again and was formally declared the World Heavyweight Champion.[5] He was married to Alice Elizabeth Bagdoian. They had three children together. Ekizian was a devout Christian.[5] Championships and accomplishments
