3 NXT Superstars Vince McMahon will push, and 3 he won't

#2. Will get pushed: Velveteen Dream

This too may come as a surprise to many, because fans feel that Velveteen Dream's "androgynous" persona will be a detriment to him on the main roster. But we disagree. There are a few reasons why.

For one, there's far more upside to Velveteen Dream, aka Patrick Clark. Clark turns 24 years old in 2019, and this means that he has over a decade to thrive and become a major player. Secondly, though he can't be described as a prodigy, he has a certain "it" factor about him, that's seen him improve tremendously since his time at Tough Enough.

He has the passion and drive to improve, and even John Cena has praised Velveteen Dream, calling him "The One". Cena clearly sees a major star in him, and McMahon might see an improved version of Goldust that he can push to the moon. The fact that he's a homegrown talent definitely helps.
