WWE fans furious with Velveteen Dream’s return, #FireVelveteenDream trends on Twitter

Velveteen Dream returned to WWE NXT a few weeks ago after being out of action for months. The former North-American Champion was missing from WWE TV after he was accused of having indecent online interactions with underage boys during the #SpeakingOut movement. The NXT superstar later admitted that while some inappropriate messages and pictures were sent to minor kids from his Instagram account, he wasn’t the one who sent it personally.

After Velveteen Dream made his in-ring return on August 12, 2020, WWE drew criticism from all corners. This took a turn for the worse this week as #FireVelveteenDream started trending on Twitter while the superstar was facing Ashante Adonis on the show. Some fans also thanked NXT star Kushida who made his way to the ring after the match and attacked Velveteen Dream.

SpeakingOut movement: Triple H takes a stand for Velveteen Dream

A couple of weeks ago while talking to CBS Sports, WWE NXT chief Triple H said that the promotion carried out an investigation after Velveteen Dream was accused of sexual misconduct but found nothing. Triple H claimed that Velveteen Dream was not away from WWE TV due to the allegations, but was away because he got into a car accident almost a month ago. Triple H revealed that Velveteen Dream returned after he recovered from his injuries and was medically cleared to fight.

“We looked into what was there and we didn't find anything,” said Triple H to CBS Sports.
