'Deadly' Eduardo Barzini was the Barzini family's head racket boss. He was the eldest child of Ettore Barzini.

Biography[]

"Deadly Ed's other name is simply 'The End'. Capiche?"
Joey Blazes[src]

Also known as 'Deadly Ed', or simply, 'The End', Eduardo Barzini was Emilio Barzini's nephew, who was known to be a vicious and brutally effective enforcer. His sister Viani was a restauranteur who's club, the Va Va Voom Room, was a front for the family.

Because of this violent streak, Don Barzini sent him to manage the Barzini Hub in Midtown, keeping him off the streets. Eduardo was known to have had several run-ins with Corleone family enforcer Joey Blazes, which ended violently for both parties, although neither man was killed.

In 1954, he had become isolated, the racket chains taken down by the Corleones, so Eduardo took to carrying a pistol with him to work. Despite this, he was muscled into paying out for the Corleones. Aldo Trapani succeeded where Joey failed.
