I just found some interviews and TV commentary by Ed Capral at matches in the Carolinas after he had left Georgia. I thought he had retired to Florida. Does anyone exactly know what he did after Atlanta wrestling days? I think he has passed away.

Danny, The last time I saw Ed was many years ago and he had retired to Florida. I had a friend see him in Sam's Club in Panama City just before he died and they said he still looked and sounded great. He was the voice of Atlanta WRestling for many years wasn't he......

Yeah. I even had a hard time getting used to Gordon Solie at first because Ed Capral's voice just went with "Live Atlanta Wrestling." I'll never forget his match with Freddy Blassie. I didn't get to go but remember the TV promotions. Capral had Ray Gunkel in his corner but still showed up on TV the next day with his forehead taped,

OK I am bad on dates but he worked doing one of Crockett's shows I wanna say 1978-79. They had Mid-AtlanticChampionship Wrestling with Bob Caudle and his show was World Wide Wrestling. He was eventually replaced buy Rich Landrum. I never cared much for him but he was tons better than Landrum or that mark David Crockett.
