Buddy Matthews Wants to End Dirty Dom

2 months ago By Jhon Woug

In professional wrestling, the wrestling storyline is the main focus of the wrestling programming and can turn the events in the wrestler’s life into soap opera plots. At the moment, one of the best stories in WWE is about Buddy Matthews, an outstanding performer who is now an avid fan of mowing down Dominik Mysterio, Dirty Dom—as fans and critics call him. This rivalry has interested WWE viewers; not only is it rivalry between two athletes, but also rivalry between two personalities with two different ideas of wrestling.

The Rise of Buddy Matthews

Buddy Matthews, who used to work under the ring name Buddy Murphy, is one of the most talented wrestlers in WWE today, who also possesses excellent storytelling and character acting skills and is also charismatic. Later on, Matthews moved to the main roster after performing impressively in NXT, where he won the NXT Tag Team Championship alongside Wesley Blake. Despite having some fluctuations in his career, he has been very determined to fight and become one of the best wrestlers of all time, especially when the cameras were with him and The Mysterious.

Buddy Matthews: It’s a Champion in the Making

The transition of Buddy in WWE has been one of the best transformations I have seen. He is best known for speed, acrobatics, and striking, which has been praised by the fans and fellow fighters. However, it is his storytelling skills that made the difference and enabled him to reach the audience in a very special way. Matthews has been portrayed most of the time as the person who will fight for the underdog, but the recent character changes and transformation of Matthews into a more aggressive and determined man, a man who is ready to do anything in order to succeed and win.

In the case of Buddy Matthews, now set to face Dominik Mysterio, he is in a position where he can not only display what he brings to the ring but what drives him. He wants to put an end to “Dirty Dom” not only due to career advancement but also because of bitterness towards his former comrades as well as the Mysterio family.

Dirty Dom: The Controversial Champion

Dominik Mysterio, the son of the legendary wrestler Rey Mysterio, has found his niche in WWE, but one that has not been well received by the WWE Universe. Described as an arrogant character, Dominik has taken on the ‘Dirty Dom’ character, which he receives a lot of heat for from the fans. It is for this reason that he has become a figure of controversy, with the boost of his father’s fame and affiliation to The Judgment Day.

Dirty Dom is a documentary that was produced by the British Channel 4 and the Swedish broadcasting company SVT as a part of the international TV series called “Tartan TV.”.

Since heel turn, Dominik has embodied the wrestling character fully, walking around with arrogance and entitlement. His connection with The Judgment Day has immensely doubled the villainous nature of his character and goes against his father’s legacy. This has made him a focal point of many fans, who regard him as an individual who has no right to be part of wrestling.

Dirty Dom and his actions, along with him using his father’s name to gain a reputation for himself, have angered the fans as well as Buddy Matthews. Matthews knows the significance of paying respect to legacies in wrestling, and Dominik’s portrayal of the Mysterio name as an addition that nobody cares about has been enough to make him want to rise up and face what he believes is injustice.

The Anticipation of the Feud

There had been animosity between Buddy Matthews and Dominik Mysterio for a while now due to one-on-one and tag team matches, backstage brawls, and promos. The animosity started to rise when, in return, Matthews accused Dominik of using his family name and that he does not respect the sport.

Personal Encounters and Tensions

The nose-to-nose confrontation came during a multi-man tag team match in the Monday Night RAW where the two were on opposite teams, Matthews and Dominik. The match was very crazy and unpredictable, and both men were doing their best to outdo each other in terms of their abilities. Things were getting even tenser, and as usual, Dominik was not shy of using any method; Matthews was on the receiving end of a low blow.

Talking backstage with Matthews after the match, he asked Dominik why he behaves this way and started fighting with him. This was one angry disagreement that led to the exchanging of bitter words and raised emotions that the two were to manifest in the coming battle. The feud between the two men escalated even more as Buddy Matthews pledged to end Dominik’s foolishness and bring the honor back to the Mysterio family.

Character Development and Motivations

It is the chance for both wrestlers to develop their personas more and give them something to play out. As for Buddy Matthews, this rivalry means an opportunity to prove his courage and tenacity. He represents the spirit of a hardworking competitor who respects his opponent and cares about the legacy he is going to leave behind and contrasts with the arrogant character of Dominik.

On the other hand, Dirty Dom’s character is completely entwined with his focus on the desire to become a champion at any cost, even if it means to lose respect and honor. While his actions might be more than dubious, they stem from a desire to leave a mark on the world and make something that most of the fans would consider to be tainted.

The Match: The Battle of Styles

With WWE gearing up to feature Buddy Matthews and Dominik Mysterio in the ring, audience wait for a good bout between the two. The different temperament of the two men shall ensure that the rivalry is spiced up by conflicting styles of the two chess players.

Buddy Matthews’ In-Ring Style

Buddy Matthews is particularly characterized by his powerful blows, speed, and great techniques. Because of his versatility in the types of moves he uses, he is in a position to challenge anybody and be a match to any wrestler. Murphy’s Law and V-Trigger, as some of the spectacular moves that are characteristic of Matthews, provide a good indication of his flexibility and strength that will help him overcome all the toughest opponents.

Also, there is good psychology in the ring and with the character-driven storytelling where Matthews excels. He is also able to go from heavy blows to submissions with ease, thus giving his opponents no idea of what is coming next.

Dirty Dom’s tactics

Dominik Mysterio, on the other hand, uses smarts and quickness in order to be able to stand his ground when it comes to wrestling matches. His speed makes him avoid blows and perform aerial moves, but he depends on the help of The Judgment Day or other strategies. This has made him a subject of hatred by fans who consider him a weak guy who cannot struggle to win on his own.

During the match, fans will see Dominik employing all sorts of tricks to defeat his opponent, while in the same manner, Matthews will seek any chance to show his strength and desire to win. There is no doubt that the match between the two competitors will be an exciting one, and therefore the match will be among the most-watched events.

The Aftermath: What is in It for Them?

The end of the bout will have a major impact on both Buddy Matthews and Dominik Mysterio. The victory for Matthews could help him gain a better standing in WWE while at the same time bringing back the respect for the Mysterio name as they defeat a champion that most people do not think deserves the title.

On the other hand, a victory for Dirty Dom will strengthen him as the heel in WWE, and the WWE Universe will continue to get annoyed with him as he will continue to be the champion. It would also help Dominik to feel that he has really created a persona for himself for which he could say, ‘I told you, so I am somebody.’ This is irrespective of the fact that he has made himself somebody by any means necessary.

WWE’s Broader Impact on the Storylines

This rivalry is not just a battle between the two wrestlers since it also helps to create and advance existing storylines in WWE. One of the things that are recurrent in professional wrestling is the conflict between the old guard of warriors and the new generation of fighters, and the story between Matthews and Dominik is a perfect example of this conflict.

A Clash of Generations

In the course of the rivalry, it captures the stereotypes of the traditional wrestlers such as Buddy Matthews and the new generation wrestlers like Dominik Mysterio. The theme of honoring wrestling tradition is present here as Matthews wants to punish Dominik for his deeds and at the same time stress on the values of graft.

This story will be well received among fans who enjoy the history and the roots of wrestling and will remind everyone that championships should not be handed down. In this respect, Matthews stands for the wrestling business and what it ought to be, and Dominik for what some fans deem as more crass and unbecoming.

Conclusion

This is the battle of the two different worlds, opposite values, approaches to wrestling, and two different generations’ perspectives: Buddy Matthews has his goal—to defeat Dirty Dom. Before the two wrestlers step into the ring, the WWE Universe awaits one heck of a battle that will not only serve for amusement alone but will also trigger some level of reflection on the topic of respect and legacy in wrestling.

The rivalry is there for the taking and has the ability to build both men as well as give them stories that people can buy into for years. In Buddy Matthew’s case, it is not simply a desire for revenge for Dirty Dom but to give the character the respect he deserves.

As this rivalry continues to unfold, one thing is certain: the WWE Universe will be waiting to see who will be the winner of this bitter battle of personality and approach to wrestling.
