Former WWE wrestler Buddy Murphy likely has some major downtime on his hands after leaving the promotion earlier this month, and it looks like the 32-year-old has been using it to get insanely jacked.

Murphy posted the following photograph to his Instagram page over the weekend:-

Though he was never a small wrestler, even when competing in the cruiserweight division, the Australian looks noticeably bigger than the last time we saw him on WWE television.

The Instagram post came with the following caption:-

Sometimes we gotta look in the mirror and evaluate… I’m evaluating! And the chip on my shoulder is getting bigger! Watch out! I’m the hungriest wolf! #newbeginnings #fitness #motovation #wrestling #wolf #workout #gym #cantstopwontstop

Let go by WWE on 2 June, if Murphy is bound by a standard 90-day non-compete clause he will be free to sign with and appear for other promotions from 31 August. He has already added an email address (presumably for booking enquiries) to his Twitter profile.

As previously reported, at least one wrestler released by WWE recently has had their non-compete clause shortened following successful negotiations with the promotion. There is no indication that this is Murphy.
