In its heyday, the AWA was able to hold 'stadium show' supercards at Comiskey Park, the International Amphitheater, Rosemont Horizon, Soldier Field and other major venues. With Gagne promoted as a legitimate rival to the NWA World Heavyweight Champion, the AWA closely matched the NWA in terms of attendances.

The company was subsequently renamed the American Wrestling Association. In 1959, Verne Gagne and Wally Karbo took control of the company and left the NWA the following year. A founding member of the National Wrestling Alliance in 1948, Stecher controlled the NWA's 'Minneapolis wrestling territory' which included much of the Great Lakes and Upper Midwestern United States.
