He competed throughout the United States and Canada primarily within the National Wrestling Alliance and captured the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship on January 1, 1946. At the fourth NWA member's convention in September 1951, Tillman was approved as a promoter within the National Wrestling Alliance for the Calgary territory.[3] He would later sell this territory to Stu Hart,[4] which would eventually become Stampede Wrestling. Professional wrestling careerTillman was one of the first prominent wrestlers within the National Wrestling Alliance, competing from at least 1934 until 1950. During his in-ring career, he had memorable feuds with wrestlers including Freddie Blassie, Sonny Myers, Stu Hart, Ken Fenelon, Dan O'Connor and Marshall Esteppe,[5] from whom he captured the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship on January 1, 1946 in Des Moines, Iowa. During his career, Tillman also promoted wrestling bouts and events. At the fourth National Wrestling Alliance convention in September 1951, Tillman was granted NWA membership as a promoter[3] for a territory spanning the U.S. Pacific Northwest to Western Canada.[6] Canadian wrestler Stu Hart was one of the mainstays of Tillman's territory and would eventually work as a booker. In 1948, Stu had created Klondike Wrestling in Calgary and in 1951 Tillman sold his territory to Hart for $50,000[7] allowing him to take over NWA membership for Calgary. Hart would later rename the territory Big Time Wrestling, Wildcat Wrestling and eventually Stampede Wrestling.[8] Championships and accomplishments
