With our 4th Round pick, The Second City Saints select:

As our Personality

Ed Whalen

While at his CHCT job, Stu Hart asked Whalen to work for him on his new wrestling show. Whalen gained worldwide fame for being the ringside announcer of the wildly popular Stampede Wrestling from 1958 to 1983 (plus its later revival from 1985 to 1989). The show popularized several Whalen catch phrases including "It's going to be a ring-a-ding-dong dandy!" and his trademark sign-off, "In the meantime and in-between time."
