Crossword Genius

Many cheer wildly for Satan (4-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arch-enemy

'satan' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'many cheer wildly' is the wordplay.
'wildly' is an anagram indicator.
'many'+'cheer'='manycheer'
'manycheer' is an anagram of 'ARCH-ENEMY'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Another definition for arch-enemy that I've seen is " Principal antagonist".)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
