Not for the first time, The Velveteen Dream has managed to lash out at WWE via social media. Dream responded to WWE’s Instagram post asking the WWE Universe which WWE Hall Of Famer should return to the ring. Options included Goldberg, Bret “Hitman” Hart, and “Stone Cold” Steve Austin to name a few.
Velveteen Dream, however, took issue with WWE’s question, firing back with the following tweet:
“N O
They Had Their Time
It’s Past Their Prime
If I wanna see these guys I’ll spend $9.99 on the NETWORK
Use What U Got b/c
We’re More Than A Generation of Dreamers
WE ARE
The DREAM Generation
And YES
I am The One 2 Talk#MoneyWhereTheMouthIs”

Dream On
The NXT Superstar has previously courted attention from WWE’s executives, sporting tights telling Vince to call him up to the main roster. He has also harnessed social media to great effect in the past — most recently addressing his ‘worth’ prior to NXT TakeOver: Phoenix.
“I Know My Worth. The past year I’ve created a special atmosphere at NXTTAKEOVER. Until WE* can come 2 an agreement as 2 what MY WORTH actually is, there won’t be any appearances or performances from “The Velveteen DREAM” or my likeness.”
Do you agree with Velveteen Dream’s issue? Should the WWE stop looking to the past and focus on upcoming and current talent? Is the Dream overreacting?
