Oklahoma

Before becoming Oklahoma, Ed Ferrara began working as a writer with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) at King of the Ring in 1998, alongside Vince Russo.

Ferrara and Russo began working for WCW in October 1999, and they placed themselves within the onscreen product of WCW. One storyline that didn't go over well was Ferrara's parody of WWF commentator Jim Ross, in which he took the onscreen name of Oklahoma and began parodying Ross on WCW programming, even going as far as to mimick Ross' Bell's Palsy affliction. He soon defeated Madusa for the Cruiserweight Championship. He also did voiceovers that played over the intercom when non-English speaking La Parka was doing interviews during this time, often getting La Parka in trouble with his opponents with the comments he created over the intercom.
