In a small bowl, mix the ground turkey, half the buffalo sauce, water, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Form into a single patty about 1 inch thick, then press a shallow dimple into the center with your thumb so it cooks evenly.
Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey patty and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the patty and cook for another 3 minutes.
Top the patty with the blue cheese. Cover the pan and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes until the cheese is soft and slumping. Remove the patty to a plate to rest. Done when the center is no longer pink, 165°F.
Place the bun halves cut-side down in the same skillet. Toast over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.
Layer the arugula and red onion on the bottom bun. Place the rested turkey patty on top, drizzle with the remaining buffalo sauce, and close the burger with the top bun.
