Because I would hate to know that anybody ever [held] back to protect me. Because that’s not what I’m about. I’ve made my money and I’ve done well and all that. Why I wrestle now is because I enjoy this. As long as I can go out and I can hang with our top guys, I got no reason to leave.”

Indeed, after completely burying the calf, the badger built a den next to it. “For about two weeks it hung out underground,” said Buechley. “Down there it has got this awesome food source.”
