Loss Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Every time I see Van Hammer, I can't help but think of Cactus's book. I CAME HERE TO SAVE THE COMPANY. In all seriousness, he had a great look and decent charisma, and would have been a star if he could work even a lick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hammer headbangs while playing his guitar in some suspiciously wide shots. The video and the concept really aren't bad for what they are--he does look like a buff, badass Sammy Hagar, after all, so what else are you going to do with him?

Kevin Ridge Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Van Hammer appears to be putting no effort into trying to play the guitar. Him jumping off the top rope in mid riff was nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 This video looks really out of place late in 1991 when the menu music featured all Nirvana songs. I dont think Hammer had a chance to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 This video definitely gets the "Heavy Metal" part of Van's gimmick over, but not much else. I'll have to see him in a promo or in the ring before I can really comment. So he thought he had come to WCW to save the company, huh? Since he was so forgettable that I got him mixed up with jobber Zan Panzer when I first saw his name on the disc menu, I'd guess that any success that the company had while he was there was in spite of him, not because of him.

dawho5 Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 I love how wrestling's music taste is usually a few years behind. But you know what, I could see this being a Whitesnake or Poison or Van Halen or some other hair band video. So I guess mission accomplished...right?
