Steroids are nothing new wrestling although the attitude has changed towards them as allegations of steroid use have found their way to Buddy Matthews. While Matthews was always wrestler who appeared to be a fit superstar during his WWE run, his recent appearance has some fans concerned that he’s juicing to keep up his ripped physique.
Fans Are Concerned That Buddy Matthews Could Be Using Steroids After Ripped Transformation
The concern also stems from the number of wrestling deaths where steroid use over the years aggravated health conditions and caused talent to deteriorate rapidly when their careers were winding down.
Following his release from WWE in 2021, the future for Buddy Matthews was a mystery. He was in the U.S to wrestle in the WWE system but afterward he had to keep going since he was in the States on a work visa. After going through New Japan and MLW for brief spells, he landed in AEW—which most of us saw coming—and was plugged into the House of Black faction.
Now, he looks like he could have a solo run at the World championship. The guy looks prime time TV ready—pretty much one of things that WWE aims for at the top of the card. After an appearance for Melbourne City Wrestling in early February 2023, a picture of the House of Black member posing on the turnbuckles made its rounds.

While some fans were surprised by just how jacked Matthews appeared, some were concerned that not only was he jacked, but there was probably some assistance of the PED-persuasion. However, looking at Matthews over the years, it’s pretty evident that he has constantly worked on his body to get it where it is now.
But what do you think? Do you believe it was the gym or the juice—or a mix? Does it ultimately matter? Share your thoughts in the comments.
