Buddy Matthews opens up about fantasy feud involving Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio

Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio have been involved in a feud ever since the latter betrayed the former at SummerSlam earlier this year. While Buddy Matthews, Rhea’s IRL husband has weighed in on this feud time and again, he’s recently spoken about being involved in a feud with the both of them.

In a recent Instagram live session, he said that he was the solution to the Dom problem that fans have been talking about. At the K&S WrestleFest, the House of Black member opened up about a potential storyline with both these WWE Superstars.

Buddy Matthews talks about a potential Forbidden Door angle

The Forbidden Door is a concept that has been exclusive to AEW so far, where stars from other promotions such as ROH and NJPW have made appearances in the Jacksonville-based promotion and vice versa.

At the K&S WrestleFest, Buddy Matthews suggested a similar concept. He said, “So, and then again, with where we are with wrestling today, you can break that fourth wall in a way. They do in Deadpool & Wolverine… Maybe there’s a forbidden door that’s unknown and may open up eventually. Who knows? But, all we can do is play cards that we have in front of us down so, you know, you never know what’s gonna happen tomorrow that could be good, bad. Anything can happen in any given day whether it’s in the ring, in business, it could be at home, could be on the way to the airport. You just don’t know, so, anything could change.”


While speaking about the potential feud involving the three of them, he said, “Oh, 100 percent (there’s potential for an angle with myself, Rhea Ripley & Dominik Mysterio)… And we’ve fantasy-booked and I’ve thrown ideas at her. She’s like, ‘That would be so cool.’ Obviously, don’t wanna let it out because if it ever eventually did ever happen, it’s something cool to kind of play off but, it’s definitely ways to do it which would be very smart and catch people.

But, I had Dom’s first or second match in WWE. I was there with Seth (Rollins) when he hit him with a Singapore cane 100 times. I ‘dated’ his sister, you know what I mean? I was a part of the Mysterio family. Long-term storytelling is there if we wanted to go back and do it, and the footage is there so, whether it is a relationship-form or just insert — there’s ways of doing it.”

At this point, it’s unclear if a feud is possible, but if Tony Khan and Triple H can come to an agreement, this fantasy feud and a lot of other feuds can be made possible.
