The 1995 December to Dismember was a professional wrestling event produced by Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW). It took place on December 9, 1995, at the ECW Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as a non-televised supercard. Though this event was held only once by ECW, the "December to Dismember" name would later be revived as a 2006 pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) for their ECW brand.
One half of the double main event was an Ultimate Jeopardy steel cage match as the Public Enemy, the Pitbulls and Tommy Dreamer faced the Heavenly Bodies, the Eliminators, Raven and Stevie Richards. The Public Enemy, the Pitbulls and Tommy Dreamer won the contest after Dreamer pinned Richards. The other main event match on the card was a three way dance for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship between champion Mikey Whipwreck, the Sandman, and Steve Austin, which was won by the Sandman.
Excerpts from December to Dismember appeared on episodes #138 and #139 of ECW Hardcore TV on December 12 and 19, 1995. The three way dance for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship was featured in the 2007 DVD The Legacy of Stone Cold Steve Austin, while the Ultimate Jeopardy steel cage match was featured in the 2013 Blu-ray WCW War Games: WCW's Most Notorious Matches as a Blu-ray exclusive.
