EC3 recalled a strange occurrence that took place during his time working for WWE in NXT that involved Patrick Clark Jr., better known as Velveteen Dream.
This week, Dream was featured prominently in the news due to his arrest on August 26 for possession of drug paraphernalia. Prior to that, on August 22, Dream was arrested for battery and trespassing.
During an interview on “The Wrestling Outlaws” show on Sportskeeda, EC3 told an in-depth story about Dream’s behavior at a house party that EC3 was hosting. EC3 began by saying that Clark has a lot of demons in the closet, and that there had been speculation in NXT that he was a little off, but that you welcome that, and that you can be friends with someone like that.
“We had a party and it was at my place, and he came over because I’m being friendly and I’m top guy, and I tried to welcome everybody into the thing. He left his phone in my bathroom with the camera on trying to capture people taking pi**es, so there.”
“He got arrested again. When’s he gonna get rehired? Probably not if that’s on his record, plus he has a lot of demons in the closet. Oh, what do you mean? I’m glad you asked, why not? Because in NXT there was always some speculation about him being a little off, but you welcome that. You can be friends. We had a party and it was at my place, and he came over because I’m being friendly and I’m top guy and I tried to welcome everybody into the thing. He left his phone in my bathroom with the camera on trying to capture people taking pi**es, so there. How did I know? Because it’s my bathroom. When I walk in there and I see a phone selfie-style, propped up, on, filming, where if somebody is going to take a pee, they would have their phallus out urinating into the water.”
“I’m like, ‘What is going on? Am I tripping?’ I shouldn’t be because I don’t do drugs that would trip me out, so I’m like, ‘This is actually happening.’ What I did was I took the phone, I stopped the recording, I made sure the pee pee video of my wee wee was deleted because that was happening in my home, by the way. So delete, put it back, turn it back on so it looked like it was still happening… ha ha, the big elaborate ruse… I walk out of my own bathroom because this is where I live, I sit on the couch, I go and I wait, and he goes right back in the bathroom,. I go back in right after that… phone’s gone. I’m like, ‘I can’t believe this.’ Here’s the problem. Unnamed talents, that I will not name, in this moment in time were probably doing other things in that bathroom, so instead of a blatant confrontation, I just said, ‘Everybody get out, I’m going to bed, go, get out.’”
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com commented on the story, saying, “this is one that was a well known off the record thing for a while. I’d first heard this a couple of years ago off the record and couldn’t get anyone on the record since.”
