AEW star Buddy Matthews made a surprise appearance at the
Rise Against event promoted by World Series Wrestling in
Australia.
Matthews, sporting all black attire including a mask,
blasted Dijak with a chair from behind before he unveiled
himself to a big pop from the crowd. Matthews then removed
the hoodie and curb stomped Dijak.
Looking all jacked and taking in the reception from the
crowd who chanted “Holy shit,” Matthews grabbed the mic for
a few words.
“In case you forgotten, my name is Buddy Matthews. And I am
the guy who kicked down the door for every Australian to
make it overseas,” he said.
He added that he might not be cleared to compete now, but in
October, he will be.
Matthews has been on the sidelines with an ankle injury
since February 2025, an injury he suffered during the Grand
Slam: Australia show while making his entrance for his match
against Kazuchika Okada.
