</p><p>Between 1994 and 1996, Ferrara was trained and wrestled in the California-based independent promotion - Slammers Wrestling Federation. Ferrara worked under the ring name of Bruce Beaudine and on April 11, 1996 he won the SWF heavyweight championship.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>In 1998, Ferrara was writing for television shows on the USA Network. Executives at USA learned that he was working as an independent wrestler on the weekends, and set up a meeting with him and the <a href="World_Wrestling_Entertainment" class="mw-redirect" title="World Wrestling Entertainment">World Wrestling Federation</a> (WWF, later WWE). He matched the credentials required for the job including previous experience in wrestling and working in television production. He secured an interview with <a href="Vince_McMahon" title="Vince McMahon">Vince McMahon</a> and began working with the WWF at the <a href="King_of_the_Ring_(1998)" title="King of the Ring (1998)">King of the Ring</a> in 1998 during the <a href="Attitude_Era" title="Attitude Era">Attitude Era</a>.

</p><p>Ferrara appeared on an episode of <i><a href="WWE_Heat" title="WWE Heat">Sunday Night Heat</a></i> on March 14, 1999 when <a href="Tiger_Ali_Singh" title="Tiger Ali Singh">Tiger Ali Singh</a> called out a fan. The fan was Ferrara which Singh wanted to impersonate <a href="Jim_Ross" title="Jim Ross">Jim Ross</a>. While Ferrara did the impersonation, fans began booing. Ross and <a href="Steve_Williams_(wrestler)" title="Steve Williams (wrestler)">"Dr. Death" Steve Williams</a> came out to confront Ferrara. Williams German suplexed Ferrara and then attacked Singh.<sup id="cite_ref-411Mania_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-411Mania-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Eventually, Ferrara and Russo were offered a better deal to work for WCW, and left the WWF to go work there.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="World_Championship_Wrestling_(1999–2000)">World Championship Wrestling (1999–2000)</h3></div>
<p>Ferrara and Russo began working for WCW in October 1999, and they placed themselves within the onscreen product of WCW. They migrated their "Crash TV" formula from the WWF. Matches were shorter in length, speaking segments both inside and outside the ring were more prominent, and a far greater emphasis was made on pushing midcard wrestlers to the point that everyone on the card had a gimmick and/or storyline. Successful products of their initial tenure at WCW included Screamin' <a href="Norman_Smiley" title="Norman Smiley">Norman Smiley</a>, <a href="3_Count" title="3 Count">3 Count</a>, the re-invention of <a href="The_Outsiders_(WCW)" class="mw-redirect" title="The Outsiders (WCW)">The Outsiders</a>, <a href="The_Mamalukes" class="mw-redirect" title="The Mamalukes">The Mamalukes</a>, 'Psycho' <a href="David_Flair" title="David Flair">David Flair</a>, <a href="Revolution_(professional_wrestling)" class="mw-redirect" title="Revolution (professional wrestling)">The Revolution</a>, <a href="The_Filthy_Animals" class="mw-redirect" title="The Filthy Animals">The Filthy Animals</a>, and <a href="Chris_Benoit" title="Chris Benoit">Chris Benoit</a>'s main event <a href="Push_(professional_wrestling)" title="Push (professional wrestling)">push</a>, among others. There were some storylines which did not necessarily go over with fans the way they wished including <a href="Brad_Armstrong_(wrestler)" title="Brad Armstrong (wrestler)">Buzzkill</a>, <a href="Robert_Kellum" class="mw-redirect" title="Robert Kellum">The Maestro</a>, <a href="Buff_Bagwell" title="Buff Bagwell">Buff Bagwell</a>, and <a href="Debrah_Miceli" class="mw-redirect" title="Debrah Miceli">Madusa</a> winning the Cruiserweight title.
</p><p>Another storyline that didn't go over well with fans was Ferrara's controversial parody of WWF commentator <a href="Jim_Ross" title="Jim Ross">Jim Ross</a>, in which he took the <a href="Stage_name" title="Stage name">onscreen name</a> of <b>Oklahoma</b> and began parodying Ross on WCW programming, even going as far as to mimick Ross' <a href="Bell's_Palsy" class="mw-redirect" title="Bell's Palsy">Bell's Palsy</a> affliction. He had previously done an impersonation of Ross in the WWF during an angle with <a href="Tiger_Ali_Singh" title="Tiger Ali Singh">Tiger Ali Singh</a> where he was called from the audience as a fan and did his Ross impression.<sup id="cite_ref-oww_1-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-oww-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Ross would state that his impersonation was "personal" and "very hurtful".<sup id="cite_ref-411Mania_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-411Mania-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="Jim_Cornette" title="Jim Cornette">Jim Cornette</a> would later spit in his face and challenge him to a fight for making fun of his long-time friend, Jim Ross. He defeated Madusa for the <a href="WWE_Cruiserweight_Championship_(1991%E2%80%932007)" class="mw-redirect" title="WWE Cruiserweight Championship (1991–2007)">Cruiserweight Title</a>.
</p><p>Their initial stint was epitomized by the reintroduction of the <a href="New_World_Order_(professional_wrestling)" title="New World Order (professional wrestling)">nWo</a> after months of storylines which ultimately saw <a href="Bret_Hart" title="Bret Hart">Bret Hart</a> win the world title at the expense of his nemesis <a href="Bill_Goldberg" title="Bill Goldberg">Goldberg</a>. However, both Hart and Goldberg got injured a few days prior to a major WCW pay-per-view. WCW later formed a booking committee which consisted of former bookers including <a href="Kevin_Sullivan_(wrestler)" title="Kevin Sullivan (wrestler)">Kevin Sullivan</a>, <a href="Kevin_Nash" title="Kevin Nash">Kevin Nash</a>, <a href="J._J._Dillon" title="J. J. Dillon">J. J. Dillon</a> and <a href="Bob_Mould" title="Bob Mould">Bob Mould</a>. This would also mark the beginning of the end for the friendship between Russo and Ferrara who both took opposing positions. Russo refused to work in the booking committee as he felt he was "jobbed out" by the backstage politics of the company whilst Ferrara decided he would stay on as he had just relocated his entire family to Atlanta and so felt compelled to continue his work as a writer. This would be the last time Russo and Ferrara would willingly work with one another in a wrestling environment, until being reunited in TNA years later (see below).
</p><p>The success of the booking committee was limited at best. Ratings had plummeted and WCW was in a state of disrepair. Russo's and Ferrara's "Crash TV" writing style, which enjoyed immense popularity among the WWF's predominately <a href="Northern_United_States" title="Northern United States">Northern</a> and <a href="Western_United_States" title="Western United States">Western</a> audiences from urban areas, was openly resented by rural, traditional <a href="Southern_United_States" title="Southern United States">Southern</a> wrestling fans who made up the majority of WCW's fanbase.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The new committee also led to the mass exodus of the most promising mid-card wrestlers in the company. Now known as <a href="The_Radicalz" title="The Radicalz">The Radicalz</a>, Chris Benoit, <a href="Dean_Malenko" title="Dean Malenko">Dean Malenko</a>, <a href="Eddie_Guerrero" title="Eddie Guerrero">Eddie Guerrero</a> and <a href="Perry_Saturn" title="Perry Saturn">Perry Saturn</a> all walked out of WCW as Sullivan stated he had no plans to use them on subsequent programming. It was rumored that 17 wrestlers had asked for their release that night but only five of them got their successful release (this included <a href="Shane_Douglas" title="Shane Douglas">Shane Douglas</a> but he would return in April of that year). Within two months the booking committee was disbanded and in a desperate attempt to salvage their ailing product, WCW hired back Russo and <a href="Eric_Bischoff" title="Eric Bischoff">Eric Bischoff</a> to help out. This led to Ed Ferrara getting demoted to a road agent position.
</p><p>He did voiceovers that played over the intercom when non-<a href="English_language" title="English language">English</a> speaking <a href="L.A._Park" class="mw-redirect" title="L.A. Park">La Parka</a> was doing <a href="Promo_(professional_wrestling)" class="mw-redirect" title="Promo (professional wrestling)">interviews</a>, often getting La Parka in trouble with his opponents with the comments he created over the intercom.

<p>From June to August 2002, Ferrara did color commentary on the <a href="Total_Nonstop_Action_Wrestling" title="Total Nonstop Action Wrestling">Total Nonstop Action Wrestling</a> weekly pay-per-views alongside <a href="Mike_Tenay" title="Mike Tenay">Mike Tenay</a> and <a href="Don_West_(sportscaster)" class="mw-redirect" title="Don West (sportscaster)">Don West</a> when the company started.<sup id="cite_ref-oww_1-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-oww-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> At the time when the company was cutting costs due to lack of financial backing, Ferrara chose to leave<sup id="cite_ref-oww_1-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-oww-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> after being told that he would not be receiving a paycheck on a regular basis and that he would only be paid when the company was able to make that money back.
