Patrick Clark appears to be embracing his new “Velveteen Dream” persona. While there has been plenty of criticism, Patrick has embraced the opportunity and is giving the gimmick his all.
It's easy to point and mock, but sometimes we have to give things a chance, especially in this fickle world we call professional wrestling. I can only imagine the response some of the more provocative gimmicks got, especially ones like Adrian Adonis and now, Velveteen Dream.
The bottom line is that Patrick Clark is extremely talented and he has proven that fact on Tough Enough. This is one we just need to give a chance and see what evolves from it.

About the author

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
