The first Mountain Top Madness was produced by Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) on June 30, 1995, the night prior to Hardcore Heaven. The event was held at the Flagstaff in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania in the United States,[1] with around 385 attendees.[2] A "fan cam" recording of the event was released on DVD by ECW.[2][3]
Event
The opening bout was a tag team match pitting Dino Sandoff and Don E. Allen against the Pitbulls. The Pitbulls won the bout in a squash, pinning Allen following a aided superbomb by pinfall. The Pitbulls - who at the time were members of Raven's Nest - were accompanied to ringside by Raven, Stevie Richards, and Beulah McGillicutty; during the match, Francine, who was seated at ringside, flirted with Richards, resulting in McGuillicutty bickering with Francine until Raven led Richards and McGuillicutty backstage.[2][4][5][6]
The second bout was a singles match between 2 Cold Scorpio and Hack Meyers. 2 Cold Scorpio won the bout by pinfall following a 450° splash.[2][4][5]
The third bout was scheduled to be a singles match between Mikey Whipwreck and Taz, but Whipwreck was unable to compete due to a separated shoulder. He was replaced by Chad Austin, who sucker punched Taz. After Taz knocked Austin out with a Taz-plex, referee Bill Alfonso (who would incur the ire of the ECW audience by enforcing rules that were otherwise largely overlooked, invariably to the advantage of heels) disqualified him for striking his opponent before the bell. As Taz went to confront Alfonso, he was attacked by 2 Cold Scorpio, his opponent for the following evening at Hardcore Heaven, who injured his neck by giving him a tombstone piledriver followed by a somersault leg drop.[2][4][5]
The fourth bout was a barbed wire baseball bat match between Axl Rotten and Ian Rotten. Axl Rotten won the bout by pinfall after giving Ian Rotten a leg drop using the titular bat.[2][4][5]
Following the fourth bout, Cactus Jack confronted Shane Douglas in the ring.[2][5]
The fifth bout saw ECW World Tag Team Champions the Public Enemy defend their titles against Raven and Stevie Richards. Raven and Richards defeated the Public Enemy to win the titles when Richards pinned Rocco Rock after the Gangstas interfered, hitting Rock with a pipe and dragging an unconscious Richards on top of Rock. An attempt by a referee to reverse the decision due to the interference was in turn overturned by Bill Alfonso. Following the match, Richards issued an open challenge, prompting 911 to come to the ring and chokeslam Raven and Richards. After Alfonso confronted him, 911 chokeslammed him as well.[2][4][5][6]
The main event ECW World Heavyweight Champion saw the Sandman defend his title against Tommy Dreamer. Before the match, Raven and Stevie Richards attacked Dreamer as he approached the ring, injuring his hand. The Sandman won the bout after his manager, Woman, distracted Dreamer, enabling the Sandman to strike him in his injured hand with his Singapore cane then pin Dreamer using a small package to retain his title.[4][5]
