Most fans expressed their displeasure towards the former NXT Superstar. A few questioned his return and compared him to other WWE Superstars who got second chances, such as Jeff Hardy and Matt Riddle.

What did the Velveteen Dream do in WWE under Triple H’s creative leadership?
Patrick Clark Jr., aka Velveteen Dream, spent a couple of years getting promoted. Clarke first started out as a Tough Enough competitor before moving to the then-Black and Gold brand under the creative direction of Triple H, where she became Velveteen Dream.
Dream got his big break in NXT when he feuded with Aleister Black, and the two delivered a stellar match at WWE NXT Takeover: Wargames 2017. In 2019, Dream won the North American Championship from Johnny Gargano and became the longest reigning champion. A champion of the brand.
The record was broken by Wes Lee after winning the title in 2022. Later, he feuded with The Undisputed Era after Roderick Strong defeated him to win the title. After an absence of several weeks, he returned and feuded with Adam Cole for the NXT Championship, losing.
Eventually, there were teases that he would enter the tag team division with Dexter Loomis. Unfortunately, he lost to Kushita and went on a hiatus. In 2021, he was released from WWE and eventually left the industry.
