	R.I.P. Ed "Wahoo" McDaniel
		Wahoo was a larger-than-live being to me. As a young child, one of the feuds I grew up captivated by was Wahoo McDaniel's 1986 rivalry with "Gorgeous" Jimmy Garvin.
		When he was not in the ring, Wahoo was often seen at his gimmick table, interacting with fans young and old, always courteous and cordial to all that approached him.
		Chief Wahoo McDaniel was among the last of a generation of professional wrestlers who hopefully will not be forgotten by time and the new generation of casual, uneducated fans.

		McDaniel was the last in a fantastic series of top notch singles wrestlers that Jim Crockett Promotions brought in from mid 1973 to mid 1974 that would soon transform the Mid-Atlantic area from a sleepy tag team territory to one of the major hotbeds of wrestling in the United States.
