Former WWE Superstar The Velveteen Dream has allegedly been involved in an incident with a gym employee, which included Dream “punching” and “biting” him.

Patrick Clark, the controversial ex-WWE Superstar known by his Velveteen Dream moniker, has been busy in recent weeks, being arrested on a number of occasions for a series of incidents. One of these saw him involved in a verbal and subsequently physical altercation with a gym employee.

As reported by TMZ, the incident occurred on 20 August at Club Orlando, where a senior employee had reportedly asked the one-time NXT North American Champion to leave an area of the facility that was “closed for cleaning”. The verbal abuse continued from Dream’s side, with threats allegedly being made that he would “kill” the unnamed employee.

When things got physical, The Velveteen Dream is said to have punched and bit the man. Documents from the incident noted teeth marks on the employee’s “left chest”; the real-life Clark was taken into custody on account of battery and trespassing after receiving a warning.

Although released on bail, he’ll be required to attend an arraignment hearing on 29 September.

The once-popular NXT Superstar made headlines in 2020 for having allegedly sexually harassed minors. An internal investigation conducted by WWE supposedly found no issues, but Dream was ultimately let go the following year.
