12. Van Hammer

Van Hammer is one of the stars which WCW tried to push it to the moon after his debut but he just falls flat on the face and lost his momentum. Hammer debuted in WCW in 1991, with a nickname ‘Heavy Metal’, and portrayed a typical rock star in leather pants and Slash-style top hats.

He is one of the few wrestlers who never won the title in his entire run and when you saw the in-ring skills of Hammer, you’ll understand what’s the reason behind it. He just sucks in the ring and his skills are really cringeworthy. WCW tried so hard to push him but Hammer never got the place in the card which the company wanted. Later, in the mid-1990s, Hammer ditched the hair metal theatrics for a more hippie-meets-grunge look. Unfortunately, he still sucks in the ring and lost in oblivion.
