• Buddy Murphy On How He Rubbed People The Wrong Way In WWE

During a recent appearance on “State of Combat” podcast, former WWE Cruiserweight Champion & current SmackDown wrestler Buddy Murphy talked about losing his passion for wrestling, rubbing people the wrong way & more.

Below are the highlights:

On losing his passion when WWE broke up his tag team with Wesley Blake:

“That really got me down because what I see today is what I feel like I always had to offer. But I guess maybe some other people didn’t see that at the time. It was a lot of soul searching. I was kind of running through the motions, and to be honest, counting the days left. You can only do so much.

On rubbing people the wrong way in WWE:

“I rubbed people the wrong way because they wanted it a set way, but I felt like I had to do what I loved and I wanted to bring back what I loved. That was the starting point for what you see today. The love for wrestling is back in me, and I think you can see that by the quality that I want to produce. I want to be the best I can be and be known as one of the best in the world and for people to realize that I was always this from the beginning.”

On WWE officials laughing at him when he asked to be a part of 205 Live:

“They kind of like laughed in my face like, ‘No, don’t worry about it. That’s not happening.’ I asked so many times that I decided to just get in a little bit of trouble because I kept asking the same question over and over again and the answer was already, No.'”

On facing Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan on SmackDown:

“Just being in there with Roman, it’s crazy. He’s the Hulk Hogan and John Cena of today, he’s the [Steve] Austin and The Rock. To just stand in the ring with him, when his music went off, it gave me goosebumps. I got a little bit nervous but then I just said, ‘I belong here. This is all happening for a reason.’

For him to want to step into the ring with me is awesome, and it’s an honor. It felt like magic happening. And Bryan truly loves wrestling. To do what he did for me and has done for others, it just tells you what kind of person he is in real life, and I can’t thank him enough.”

On having a big chip on his shoulder:

“I’ve got one big chip on my shoulder to prove to the world. It’s not just to prove to the people of the world, it’s to prove to the people of NXT. It’s to prove to the people in the back when I wasn’t being used what you were sitting on. Everyone is jumping on the Buddy Murphy train now even though it was just, ‘This guy still works here? I thought he was released.’

It’s a big chip, and I’m out to prove to everyone that I’m real and I’m here to stay. The character of Buddy Murphy is me but with a huge chip on my shoulder, and I think over the next couple of months you are going to see what I’m truly about.”
