Big wife guy Buddy Matthews.
Buddy Matthews and Rhea Ripley might work for separate wrestling promotions, but when they get downtime together, they make sure to make the most of it.
"Sometimes it becomes a bit of a pain in the ass. But we just kind of lock in that well, she's definitely on a Monday, whether she's on live events or not, depends. But then if I'm on a Wednesday or a Saturday, then we get a couple of days in there. But we learn to work it out," Matthews told Chris Van Vliet on Insight.
He continued, "She's also, I get kind of emotional talking about it, I've married my best friend. There isn't anyone that I'd want to spend any more time with. I only need her. That's it. I don't need a massive group of friends. I don't need approval. As long as I have her I could be the clown too, and we can just be chilled. I don't need to go out. Give me a pizza, my wife, a horror movie, and we are good. I'm on cloud nine, and then generally, I'll fall asleep, but that's because I'm comfortable. That's a good thing for a guy, if a guy could fall asleep. So yeah, but she's my best friend, and now I'm very lucky."
Matthews and Ripley married in June 2024.
Elsewhere during the interview, Matthews gave an update on his ankle injury. You can find his full comments here.
