Who would have thought that Patrick Clark from Tough Enough would have a potential match of the year candidate in 2017! But that's exactly what happened when Clark, with the eccentric 'Velveteen Dream' gimmick, took on Aleister Black at NXT TakeOver: WarGames
The two put on a match so good that it threatened to steal the show from the War Games main event match. Clark, who is still incredibly young, could cement himself as a future star in the eyes of many members of the WWE Universe, many have pegged him as potentially the first ever black WWE Champion.
