EPW News & Rumours
08/07/04 - INSIDE Hell or Highwater 2004
Normally, after every event, I, THE INSIDER, like to take a look at the winners and losers from each event. But on this occasion, I, THE INSIDER, will deviate from that pattern and bring you some going ons from the EPW Dressing Rooms.

Brock Freeman may have been the biggest loser from Hell or Highwater. He lost his sole member of Freemanism, Shane Haste. And he appears to have also lost his mind. He needed medical attention after receiving a post match con-chair-to from Haste and Kiel E. Lectrifying. I, THE INSIDER, tried to get a comment from Freeman. He mumbled something in Japanese before passing out yet again.

Jimmy Payne was again noticeably absent from Hell or Highwater. He was at the Community Centre earlier that day and I, THE INSIDER, managed to catch up with him. He revealed that his back injury was more serious than first thought. “I thought I was close to 100% after Evolution but something still isn’t right,” he said quietly, “I wrestled at the house show and felt great but could hardly move a day later.” He went on to say that he blames Tommy Cartel for his time out this year and will be looking to take the big man out when he returns. “The longer I’m out, the more fired up I’ll be when I return. There will be hell to pay for Cartel and Blade.”

James Street was upset at being held off the card at Hell or Highwater. “Why would they want to keep the sexiest man in EPW off the card?” he asked. “People only come to see James strut his stuff. But I’ll get my chance. I’ll win the Invitational Tournament and then they can’t leave me off anymore”. Easier said than done James. Almost every wrestler in EPW will be gunning for that title. Not only that but I, THE INSIDER, have heard rumours that interest has come from over East as well. Will we see the first interstate wrestler in the EPW Invitational tournament?

Well I, THE INSIDER, called it after Black Friday. On the topic of Davis Storm and Mikey I, THE INSIDER, said QUOTE: “Anyone think that there may be more to this story before the year is out?” Now, after Hell or Highwater, we head to Re-Awakening with Mikey as #1 contender and Storm as PW champion. The two had a heated confrontation after Storm’s win that wound up with punches being thrown and both men needing to be restrained. But was that confrontation ‘all business’ as both men claimed. “Like I said, as long as he’s the champ and I’m #1 contender, we have issues,” said Mikey after the confrontation. “I’m not going to be pushed around and I’m certainly not going to accept being slapped in the face. I think he’s worried about Re-Awakening. And he should be.” Storm was in a great mood after his win but his mood quickly changed when the name Mikey arose. “I don’t care who you are. If you come out looking for a fight after someone has just won the EPW title, then you deserved to get slapped in the face!” he shouted. “ Like I said earlier this year, a lot of people seem to have forgotten what he put some of us through last year. I haven’t forgiven and I haven’t forgotten. I respect him as an athlete but not enough to just hand my title over. He’s in for the fight of his life at Re-Awakening.”

That’s all the Inside goss that I, THE INSIDER, have for you.
