It was a Danger Zone of tough fights and dirty tricks in Vernon last weekend.

Invasion Wrestling hosted the Saturday event at the Vernon Recreation Complex, which drew a crowd in support of the Boys and Girls Club and North Okanagan Neurological Association.

The event, which also took place in Rutland, not only provided entertainment but acts as a charity fundraiser.

Started in 2013, the wrestling cards have generated more than $100,000 in donations to local charity groups both in Kelowna and Vernon. Thanks to founders Mike Chisholm and Mike Rizzo.
