You're correct, King Buxton wasn't in the pit. However, it also wasn't completely suspended over the pit like The Morgue was, as shown when Eric pushed it away. They're completely different scenarios and thus you can't say "this shouldn't have happened because this happened". It's kinda like saying Chaos 2 (a flipper) shouldn't have been able to overturn Hypno-Disc because Evil Weevil (a forklift) couldn't.
