The video, which starts with a simulated interview mocking Wolfgang, portrays him as making claims about his talent and independence, despite benefiting from his familial ties. Roth, 69, then proceeds to mock Wolfgang for allegedly accusing him of neglecting him onstage, recounting an incident where Wolfgang ejected a woman — mistakenly identified as Roth's girlfriend — from two concerts.
Roth's Instagram post sharing the video was captioned with a blunt "This F—in’ Kid," adding fuel to the already fiery situation.
Wolfgang, 32, has remained silent regarding Roth's remarks, leaving fans curious about his response. Meanwhile, Wolfgang is scheduled to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with his band, Mammoth WVH, on Thursday. Coincidentally, Friday marks what would have been Eddie Van Halen's 69th birthday, adding a poignant layer to the unfolding drama.
The rift between Roth and Wolfgang sheds light on the complex dynamics within Van Halen, a band known for its tumultuous history and lineup changes. Roth left the band after the release of their immensely successful album "1984" to pursue a solo career, only to return later. Eddie's decision to replace founding bassist Michael Anthony with his own son in 2007 marked another pivotal moment in the band's evolution, with Roth reassuming his role as frontman.
