On This Day In Pro Wrestling History (July 16, 1995) – Bash At The Beach 1995

Bash at the Beach PPV

On this day in Professional Wrestling history on July 16, 1995, WCW aired ‘Bash at the Beach 1995’ LIVE on PPV from the beach in Huntington Beach, California. This marks the first, the last & the only Professional Wrestling PPV that has ever happened on an actual beach instead of inside an arena.

But not only the World Championship Wrestling cameras were filming the event, the 2 main events of the show were also shown on an episode of the TV Show Baywatch featuring David Hasselhoff & Pamela Anderson.

The only possible excuse for not doing another PPV on the beach could be that none of the 9,500 people in attendance paid any money to see it. Other than that the PPV had a great & special feeling to it, not so much because of the actual matches (they weren’t bad at all though) but because of the great California beach atmosphere.

Here are the official PPV results from Bash at the Beach 1995:

– WCW United States Heavyweight Championship

Sting def. Meng

– WCW World Television Championship

The Renegade def. Paul Orndorff

– Kamala def. Jim Duggan

– Diamond Dallas Page def. Dave Sullivan
