Buddy Matthews is scheduled to make his MLW debut at the Blood & Thunder tapings in Dallas, Texas.

The promotion announced the addition of the former WWE talent on Friday morning just hours before the event at Gilley’s.

The promotional release indicates he will be wrestling on the show but no opponent is listed.

Matthews wrestled as ‘Murphy’ in WWE and was part of a series of mass cuts in 2021.
