Velveteen Dream tells his side of the story.
Former WWE NXT star Velveteen Dream took to Instagram Live on Wednesday to share his side of the story in the accusations made by EC3 that he filmed WWE talent urinating without consent at EC3’s house party in 2018.
EC3 initially told Sportskeeda on September 4, “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 pisses, 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.”
The news made rounds again on Wednesday when EC3 told Steve Fall of NBC Sports Boston said this incident was made known to WWE management.
“I’m not one to share it and gossip. It was known. Talent was involved. It’s a wild tale and a lot of people did know. Even being part of it where I was kind of at the forefront of it because it was my home, taking it up the chain, being there, getting there, people sometimes don’t want the boat rocked from an office perspective. Sometimes, talent is doing well and drawing money, they’ll be protected. At the same time, I’m an adult male who does not need someone else to fight my battles. ‘This sucks. I don’t like it.’ Guys that were involved, ‘this happened.’ Ridicule from peers. No lesson was learned. Why it came up here and now, somebody asked. Nobody ever asked. I was asked about him and when it rains it pours.” (h/t Fightful)
Velveteen Dream explained in a brief Instagram Live video that EC3 fabricated parts of the story while alleging that cocaine was involved at the party.
“EC3 has gone to the dirtsheets saying he had a party at his house one night, and if I’m correct, this is 2017, 2018, EC3. I’m not going to tell people who was at this party out of respect for our mutual friends, but one of our mutual friends is a former NXT talent that no longer works for WWE and the other person is a current Monday Night Raw talent who used to wrestle talent for NXT. Mike, EC3, you go out here, after I give you the best match you’ve ever had in your entire career. You go out here and, I’m tired of people throwing dirt on my name, you throw dirt on my name by saying I tried to record you in your bathroom. Let’s be honest, Mike. You’re leaving out a lot of details. What were we doing that night, Mike? What type of powder was on the table, Mike? Let’s be real. Let’s not leave out all the details. We were all drunk, you were pissy drunk because you were in your place. You were damn near passed out in the corner. You and your homegirl, whichever chick you were screwing at the time. The other two people, the mutual friends were there.”
“I left my phone on your bathroom counter and because you were not sure of my sexuality at the time because of the character I played on TV and because we’re not friends in real life, at all. You try to accuse me of recording you in your own home. So what did I do? I went to our mutual friend who no longer works for the WWE, a former NXT talent, and I showed him my phone and had him go through my photos and videos, and my recently deleted, just to prove to you and the other person that was there, who because I respect him and he has a job, I’m not going to put him out there. I had him prove to you that I was not recording you. Cocaine is a hell of a drug, EC3. Get your shit together. If anyone would like to go to my friends list and check out who follows me, EC3 is a follower of mine. If you thought that much of me that you couldn’t trust me, you definitely wouldn’t be following me on social media all these years later, EC3. You’re pathetic. Now control that narrative, you asshole.”
