Okay, so I saw this headline floating around – “Is Buddy Matthews Coming Back to WWE?” – and it got me thinking. I’m a huge wrestling fan, and I remember Buddy from his first run, so I decided to do some digging and see what’s what.
First thing I did? I fired up Google. Straight up, just typed in “Buddy Matthews WWE return.” You know, keep it simple.

I scrolled through a bunch of articles. Some were just pure speculation, fan wish lists, that sort of thing. Others referenced some tweets and interviews, but nothing concrete. It’s all very “he said, she said” at this point, it seemed.
Digging Deeper
Then, I checked out some wrestling news sites. You know, the usual suspects. I figured if there was any real smoke to this fire, these guys would have it.
- I spent like a good hour just reading through articles and forum posts.
- I compared notes. Are multiple sources saying the same thing? Or is it just one site running with a rumor?
- I even went to Buddy Matthews’s social media. Nothing really revealing there, lots of workout pictures.
Honestly, after all that, I came away with… not much. It’s all just rumors and speculation at this point. There’s no official word from WWE, and nothing definitive from Buddy himself. Could it happen? Sure. Anything can happen in pro wrestling. But right now, it’s all just wishful thinking, and I’ve set my expectations accordingly. It’s fun to think about but do not bet on it, that’s for sure.
So, that was my little investigation. I started with a simple question, did some basic searching, and ended up realizing it’s all just a big “maybe” for now. I’ll keep my eyes peeled, though. You never know!
