and Savage's manager "The Boss" Chance Williams (Steve Martin). Buchanan, then known as the Punisher, formed a team with Savage in National Championship Wrestling
known as Body Count. The pair also wrestled in feuds against each other as well before Buchanan was recruited by Jim Cornette
for Smoky Mountain Wrestling
.
(SMW), where he competed as The Punisher. He was a member of Jim Cornette
's latest stable, The Militia where he rarely wrestled, instead working as Jim Cornette's bodyguard. He was involved in a feud with Boo Bradley
and Bob Armstrong
. Buchanan wrestled on the last SMW show, teaming with Tommy Rich
to wrestle Buddy Landel
and The Bullet
.
(USWA), where he was known as Recon of the Truth Commission
. With his partner The Interrogator
, Buchanan won the USWA World Tag Team Championship on March 6, 1997 when they beat Billy Joe Travis and Flash Flanagan. The duo only held the titles for a week before losing them back to Flash Flanagan and Billy Joe Travis. The Truth Commission regained the titles on April 19 when they beat Billy Kidman and Ace Darling in Memphis, Tennessee
. The second reign came to an end on May 14 when Steven Dunn
and Paul Diamond defeated “Recon” and the Interrogator. Two weeks later, the Truth Commission became three times champions and held them until the titles were held up on June 14. The titles were vacated because Truth Commission member Tank
teamed up with “Recon” and the titles could not be defended by a substitute. The Truth Commission left the USWA only a short time later as they were being called up to the World Wrestling Federation
.
. They made their WWF debut on the June 28, 1997 of Shotgun Saturday Night. The following week, Sniper
made his debut and soon after Tank was removed from the team. The Truth Commission stable was short lived; it disbanded in 1998, but Buchanan and Sniper of the Truth Commission stayed together as the short-lived tag team, Armageddon. After that team disappeared from TV, Buchanan remained under WWF contract, and was sent to their "developmental territory" Ohio Valley Wrestling
to improve his skills. While there, Buchanan and partner Mr. Black captured the OVW Southern Tag Team Championship
.
Buchanan returned to the WWF on the March 19, 2000 edition of Sunday Night Heat
, now under the name Bull Buchanan and dressed in a SWAT
Uniform, helping The Big Boss Man
attack Mideon
. Buchanan and The Big Boss Man continued wearing matching SWAT-Style Uniforms and teaming together as Buchanan acted as some sort of a protégé to Boss Man. The team had a decent amount of success as they defeated The Godfather
and D'Lo Brown
at WrestleMania 2000
, and beat the APA
the following month at Backlash. The team split on the June 5, 2000 edition of Raw is War
; after a loss to the Hardy Boyz
, Buchanan and Boss Man began to argue which lead to shoving and eventually Boss Man knocking out Buchanan with his nightstick
when Buchanan's back was turned.
Buchanan briefly struck out on his own after that alliance ended, but it was not long before he joined the Right to Censor
faction, led by Steven Richards
, in July 2000. As part of this group, Buchanan won the WWF World Tag Team Championship with The Goodfather
.
After Right to Censor was disbanded in mid-2001, Buchanan was once again sent to Ohio Valley Wrestling. In August 2002 he returned to the WWE after wrestling several matches with seemingly no character or purpose, until November 21 when John Cena
was pinned by Rikishi
. Buchanan came out and attacked Rikishi after the match thus aligning himself with Cena, who had recently developed a rapper gimmick in which he would freestyle rhyme about his opponent as he made his entrance. Buchanan stood as an enforcer character for Cena and eventually finished Cena's Freestyles with his own quote: "Boo-yah!" Buchanan also began using the name B-2 (also written as B², pronounced "B-Squared"). This pairing did not last long. On the January 16, 2003 edition of SmackDown!, Cena and B-2 lost to Los Guerreros in a tag team title match which led to Cena blaming B-2 after the match for being pinned. This led to Cena slapping B-2 and B-2 shoving Cena down. As B-2 went to attack Cena, Redd Dogg
debuted and came through the crowd and joined Cena in a beatdown on B-2; thus, Redd Dogg replaced B-2 at Cena's side. B-2's last televised match was on January 19 at the Royal Rumble
in which he entered at number 11 and was eliminated rather quickly. B-2's very last match was cut out of the January 23 edition of SmackDown! in which Redd Dogg defeated B-2. B-2 was released from WWE on January 26, 2003.
Buchanan made an appearance on the November 14, 2011 edition of Raw SuperShow in a segment where Mick Foley
was bringing out people from John Cena's past, claiming that Cena ruined his life.
, where he is known simply as Buchanan teaming with Taka Michinoku
, D'Lo Brown
, and Taiyō Kea
in the Roughly Obsess and Destroy
stable. On September 17, 2006, Buchanan betrayed RO&D and joined the Voodoo Murders
.
In October 2009 Buchanan debuted for Rampage Pro Wrestling in Warner Robins, Georgia. He defeated Micah Taylor within his 1st month to win the heavy-weight title. During his reign he defeated challengers such as former TNA star Austin "Consequences" Creed. In May Buchanan traveled to Japan where he successfully defended the belt. Buchanan held the title until June 2010 when he lost the belt to the returning Shaun Banks Afterwards Buchanan went on a 6 month hiatus from the company before returning in December to team with J-Rod to take on his old rivals Hot Like Lava. In January at Reloaded Buchanan was unsuccessful in capturing the heavy-weight title in a 4-corners match between himself, the champion Banks, Cru Jones, and the eventual winner J-Rod. On February 19 Buchanan won a 30-man battle royal to become number one contender for the heavy-weight title. In March RPW became a member of the National Wrestling Alliance. On April 2 Buchanan was defeated by J-Rod in Atlanta, Georgia at the Dragon Gate USA show. Buchanan's kicked out before the 3, but the referee called for the bell thinking he didn't.
