#4 Velveteen Dream

Don't be afraid to say his name.
Don't be afraid to say his name.

The Velveteen Dream is just 22. 22 years of age. That is absolutely insane, considering what a performer he already is at that age. He is one of the most enigmatic characters on NXT, and he has the in-ring chops to back it up. A terrific promo, his skills of working feuds and playing mind-games on his opponent make him one of the most entertaining wrestlers on the current NXT brand.

Patrick Clark Jr., in his guise as the Velveteen Dream already has a stellar resume. After a wonderful feud with Aleister Black, he won the award for the best feud of 2017. He worked that feud so well, that it became one of the most talked about feuds in wrestling at the time. He was also part of the NXT North American Championship ladder match, and in the process has become one of the youngest wrestlers to be awarded a 5* Match by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The only way to go from here is up for The Dream. Say his name, and remember it.
