- Margaret Cockman Pavilion, Wanneroo Showgrounds, Ariti Ave, Wanneroo - July 12th 2003 EPW Championship Match Before the commencement of this match, it was announced
that Slick Rick Sanders would be the special guest referee for this bout. With Jamie Jurah
at ringside, this clearly put the odds in Carnage’s favour. |

| Slick Rick would surely have to take the award for the most biased referee in the history of professional wrestling. He constantly fast counted the champ, while he refused to count when Jimmy had Carnage on his back. |

| With that said, this was a
tremendous back and forth match with both men showing why they are the elite in EPW. Some
fantastic wrestling on display, with each wrestler trying to outdo the other in the suplex
department. Azazal made his way down to ringside but Jimmy took out everyone in the ring.
He nailed Carnage with a gore and referee Brett Corvus sprinted down to register a two
count before Azazal pulled him from the ring. Carnage
was busted open after hitting his head on an exposed turnbuckle. As Carnage bled, Azazal
nailed Payne from behind and hit him with the ‘Fallen Angel’. Carnage stumbled
up to drill Jimmy with the piledriver for the win and the title. |

 |
| This was without a doubt, the biggest screwjob in EPW history. Storm and The Vagrant emerged to help Jimmy to the back, while The Uprising joined the Brat Pack to celebrate their win. |

 |
 |
| There can be no doubt that The
Uprising has reaffirmed their status as the men in charge of EPW. They have stated that
they don’t care about titles. Their only concern is to destroy all the top athletes
in EPW. But it appears as though EPW has a slight glimmer of hope in the distance. Exactly
how the team of Payne, Storm and The Vagrant recover from this event is yet to be seen. |
