The second semi-final match (third round) of the "Greatest U.S. Champion of All Time" tournament pits two classic foes against each other for the right to face Blackjack Mulligan in the finals. Author Mike Rickard has had a fun time weaving a great tale for this fantasy tournament and we are headed for a great finish I'm sure.

This week features Ric Flair vs. Wahoo McDaniel. Their feud began in the fall of 1975 when a young "Nature Boy" Ric Flair (only having that nickname for a couple of months at that point) upset the big Chief to win the Mid-Atlantic title. They would feud over that title for the entire year of 1976. After Flair won the NWA World title, Wahoo was one of his toughest challengers for the ten pounds of gold off and on from 1981-1986.

Rickard's fantasy tournament has been running for the past several months on the "Canadian Bulldog's World" website (www.canadianbulldogsworld.com) and is in the final stages, as this week we finish up the semi-finals.

So who ya got? It's one of Mid-Atlantic Wrestling's most famous rivalries.
