10 Wrestlers Who Insulted Their Opponents With Their Attires
3. Velveteen Dream
Velveteen Dream's electrifying TakeOver matches have been a staple of the supercards ever since Patrick Clark's magnificent alter ego broke through on NXT, but his brief move away from the luxurious long tights for his TakeOver: Philadelphia clash with Kassius Ohno.
'The Sweet Science' hangs heavy over the 'City Of Brotherly Love' thanks to its rich boxing history as well as deep-rooted links with the Rocky movie franchise, but Dream had more than just the locale to draw from - he was jabbing his opponent as well.
Known as a knockout artist as the black-and-gold brand's original 'KO', Ohno's striking game served as his preeminent threat against his cocky upstart opponent, but Dream set out to beat him at his own game.
Trying to prove that the 18-year veteran wasn't ready for him, Dream shot out of the blocks with a series of shots to try and floor him in the 30 seconds he'd predicted. Ohno bounced back of course, dislodging Dream's mouthpiece with a fierce hammer blow that forced the fiery newcomer to get f*cking serious en route to victory.
