Top Rope Promotions will present a pro wrestling show at the Police Athletic League Hall on 31 Franklin St. in Fall River, MA. The show will be the biggest wrestling show ever held at the PAL Hall, celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Top Rope Promotions. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Police Athletic League programs. Top Rope Promotions has been in business since 1981, and has been promoting family-oriented shows at the PAL since 1990. Fall River Police Lt. Cullen is in charge of all the PAL activities and programs. The capacity of the PAL is a little over 400 seats, and the hall hopes to have all of them full for this exciting night of wrestling action. In March, we were able to sell out the PAL Hall and make a large donation to the program.
