I thought PD3 was done wrestling

He recently tweeted out a pic of his USA Wrestling card saying he was back, lucky us.....

And wrestling at a non Olympic weight, which doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Not for sure in this case, but USA wrestling oftentimes limits how many guys they will send per weight, or the tournament limits how many from one country per weight. My guess is the timing and past issues put him pretty far down the pecking order and with three guys at 86 kilos he wasn’t able to go. But he wanted to wrestle so he took an empty spot at 92.
 
Well, he won’t be wrestling in the olympics either, so the symmetry is nice.
The Olympics could soft-ban him by implementing the David Taylor No Tech Falls rule.

We know Downey can't compete under that rule.
