Wild Bull Miller

Tom Miller (born May 5, 1962) better known by his ring name Wild Bull Miller, is an American professional wrestler.

Miller started wrestling at age 14 in junior high school, and would successfully compete as an amateur until he graduated high school in 1981. He tracked down former WWF star, Flying Fred Curry, before graduating, and Fred, along with his father, Wild Bull Curry, and former wrestler, Bobby Pico, trained Miller to become a professional.

Miller started wrestling professionally in late 1981 as Aaron Lee Star. His first match was in Circleville, Ohio, for the now defunct NAWA. That show actually resulted in a riot as several fans was not happy with the fact many of the star wrestlers advertised was not there.

As Aaron Star, he also had a few matches on Superstation WTBS, losing to the likes of Wildfire Tommy Rich and Brad Armstrong among others.

Upon the death of his trainer, Bull Curry, in 1985, Miller took the name Wild Bull in his honor. Throughout the 80's and 90's, he wrestled for a host of Ohio-based promotions as well as the Indiana-based World Wrestling Association (Dick the Bruiser's promotion) and the Detroit Michigan's NWA affiliate (ran by the Original Sheik).

In 1988 he started the International Wrestling Alliance (IWA) and was based out of Columbus Ohio. The IWA sponsored events mainly through Ohio and stands today as Ohio's longest running pro wrestling organization.

He started running a pro wrestling school in the late 90s and trained close to a hundred wrestlers over a ten-year period. Many of these wrestlers wrestled for the IWA promotion as well as several other federations. He closed down the original school in 1994 but still continues to train aspiring wrestlers on and off.

Besides wrestling, promoting wrestling shows and training wrestling hopefuls, Miller has also produced several pro wrestling television shows.
