Last week, "3G" availed himself of the interference of his tag team partner The Technician to beat down opponent Jade Diamond, drawing a loss by disqualification. His opponent El Ninja was seeking to impress in his Off The Ropes debut by hopefully beating one half of the KPW Tag Team Champions. Morgan started by showing his power, but El Ninja weathered the storm of New Zealand's only third generation wrestler to come back with an amazing running shooting star press for a near fall. A massive spinebuster put Morgan back in the driving seat, but he arrogantly picked up the stunned El Ninja before referee Daniel Martins could complete the three count. Morgan then deigned to hit a massive gourdbuster on El Ninja for the pinfall win.
Winner: Kade Morgan "3G" with the gourdbuster for the win by pinfall.
Jonnie Juice from Team Pretty confronted Max "the Axe" Damage. As Mr Rumble delivered a Fire Safety Message of his own by checking a smoke detector in the background, Juice proceed to run down the big man's choice of attire, calling it "horrid". Damage fired back at Juice's business suit and reminded him of his recent loss to H-Flame. The argument between the wrestlers became heated, and Mr Rumble was forced to step in to ensure the action was kept in the ring.
Manager Charlie Roberts psyched-up the already psycho Inferno for the upcoming KPW Championship match against the defending H-Flame, intending to be the culmination of a two-year masterplan.

There was absolutely no love lost between the competitors in this match; in may ways, this championship match was the culmination of the battles they'd had up and down the country for the past two years. For the challenger Inferno and manager Charlie Roberts, this match was their best chance to end the dynasty of hated for H-Flame. For the champion H-Flame, it was another chance to prove he was the "fightingest" champ in KPW history and further extend his unbeaten streak.
The champ offered a clean break to begin, but Inferno wasted no time in complaining of non-existent hair-pulling. It wasn't long before the match just degenerated into a pure slugfest between the two wrestlers. The two competitors traded power moves, each seeking the advantage. H-Flame took the fight right to Inferno, beating the challenger senseless. Knowing he had to do something, Inferno's manager Charlie Roberts lured H-Flame outside the ring and into an ambush from Inferno.
Back in the ring, Inferno took control and tried to wear down the champ with slams and strikes. In the centre of the ring, Inferno clamped on the Cinderlock (Texas cloverleaf), the move with which he beat Lazarus Volt. H-Flame fought back and made it to the ropes, forcing Inferno to break the hold. Inferno "went to the well" once again, but H-Flame fought back to his feet and mounted a massive attack on the challenger. H-Flame scored with the H-Bomb (running pumphandle powerslam). But as H-Flame cinched up Inferno for a powerbomb, Charlie Roberts made a "Hail Mary" play and jumped up on the apron to distract the champ. H-Flame grabbed the hapless manager, and while referee Daniel Martins and H-Flame were distracted, Roberts managed to throw a chain to Inferno unnoticed. Inferno hit H-Flame from behind with the chain and hit the Extinguisher (lifting inverted DDT) for the tainted pinfall victory and championship, ending H-Flame's undefeated
Winner (and NEW KPW Champion): Inferno with the Extinguisher (and assistance from manager Charlie Roberts) for the pinfall win and KPW Championship.
Blair "the Flair" rushed backstage to interview the new KPW Champion Inferno. The KPW Commentator quizzed Inferno about the assistance from Charlie Roberts. Inferno violently disagreed and exulted at his victory and new championship belt, saying the KPW Championship would remain with him for a long time.
For KPW's "Off The Ropes", this is Blair "the Flair" saying, "See you at ringside!"
