Prior to making his in-ring debut on WWE SmackDown Live this week, Buddy Murphy was quietly moved to the main roster in the wake of WrestleMania 35, but was given little to no TV time on the brand, to the point that most fans forgot he was a blue brand roster member.

During the episode of SmackDown Live in which Shane McMahon held the show's first-ever "Town Hall Meeting", Buddy Murphy spoke out during the show on behalf of Shane's leadership. This led to Shane informing Murphy he would not be a secret in WWE for much longer, and it looks like Shane's prophecy is coming true.

Believe it or not, however, despite a prolonged TV absence before finally making his in-ring debut on SmackDown Live, Buddy Murphy won gold on two occasions in WWE.

During his time in NXT, Murphy is a one-time NXT Tag Team Champion alongside his former partner Wesley Blake.

On main roster WWE TV, Buddy Murphy enjoyed a solid run as the Cruiserweight Champion, before losing the title to Tony Nese during the WrestleMania 35 kickoff show. When he won the Cruiserweight title back in 2018, he became the first Australian born wrestler ever to do so.
