Off topic, did Ed Whalen think wrestling was real? He always seemed more committed to the bit than the wrestlers

Nah, Ed just knew how to put on a show better than anyone I've ever seen. The guy just had a knack for it. I've never seen anything like it.
He wasn't even the best play by play guy, he just knew how to entertain while doing it. His tempo, tone, emphasis on certain plays; the guy could get you excited about things very easily.
Here's Pollock and Lownsbrough talking about their experiences with Whalen. The guy was special.
