Top Rope Promotions returned to the Police Athletic League Hall on
Friday for "Fan Appreciation Night". A loud and enthusiastic crowd was
present as new TRP Tag Team Champions were crowned. Full results of the event were: * Frankie Arion made a strong showing by defeating TRP veteran The Kreeper. * In a mixed tag team match, Vain & Taeler defeated the team of Buck Nasty & Lea Morrison. After the match, Lea verbally berated Buck for losing yet another match and before she left the ring, she slapped Nasty in the face. * Next was the "Freightrain Eating Contest" where Freightrain challenged anyone to face off against him in an Oreo eating contest. "The Strangler" Alex Payne took the challenge. Just as they were about to begin the competition, Freightrain announced that he had obtained the services of a special guest judge who turned out to be Spike Dudley, making his PAL Hall return. Throughout the competition, Payne was cheating as continually caught by Dudley. Frustrated, Payne clobbered Spike and he was then stopped by Freightrain. What followed next was an utter embarrassment to Alex Payne and the full video of the Eating Competition will be available soon at www.topropepromotions.com. * "The Lebanese Prince" Jalil Salaam came out to tell everyone that his arch rival Jay Jaillett was not going to be there tonight. Salaam challenged anyone to face him and suddenly the music of Big Daddy Bravo rang throughout the PAL Hall. Bravo stated that he had continued to look for Gino Giovanni who had clobbered him from behind with a steel chair over the past two months. Bravo said that since he could not find Giovanni, he wanted to fight someone and he accepted Salaam's challenge. Big Daddy earned the victory quickly by overpowering Salaam. After the match, Bravo once again called for Giovanni to come out and face him as he looked under the ring where Giovanni was hiding in June. As he looked under one of the sides, Giovanni appeared with a chair in hand and he went to nail Bravo from behind for the third straight month. However, Bravo caught Giovanni this time and cut him off. After a very brief physical altercation, Gino Giovanni left the ring, smirking and saying their battle would be on his terms. * In a match for the TRP Heavyweight Championship, BK Jordan challenged "Heavenly" Johnny Angel. The champion retained the title, battling through a bad knee and a hard fought challenge from Jordan. * In the Main Event, The Alden Brothers finally realized their destiny as they defeated their longtime rivals The Stroke in a Steel Cage match to become the new TRP Tag Team Champions. The Stroke gained an early advantage by locking one of The Aldens out of the cage. However, in the end, The Aldens overcame more adversity and emerged victorious.
