A former WWE Superstar is reportedly done with AEW and will be leaving for a hiatus in the very near future.

Buddy Matthews is apparently out of the All Elite promotion, according to a recent report from Fightful Select.

“Buddy Matthews may be done with AEW for a while, or at least on his way out, sources familiar with the situation tell Fightful” the site revealed.

“After this week’s AEW Rampage Grand Slam, Fightful was informed that the Great Muta spot was a way to write Buddy Matthews off television for the time being” the site confirmed.

“We weren’t given context as to whether or not Matthews was being released, but had heard numerous times over the previous couple of months that he’d expressed dissatisfaction regarding his situation. Specifics of that aren’t yet known.

“One source contacted Fightful after the New York City tapings and said they believed it was Buddy’s ‘last night,’ but that hasn’t been confirmed” Fightful concluded.

If WWE are able to bring both Malakai Black and Buddy Matthews to the company around the same time then we may well see them team up again on RAW or SmackDown. There’s even a chance they could be bound for NXT.
