The Huffington Post is reporting that former WWE and TNA star Shawn Daivari used a rear naked choke to subdue an unruly passenger on an airport-bound train from Minneapolis this past Thursday. The following is an excerpt from the report:

Former WWE star Shawn Daivari told TMZ that he performed an expert wrestling move and saved the day when a passenger went berserk on an airport-bound train out of Minneapolis on Thursday.

"I wasn't going to wait any longer to see if a cop showed up," Daivari said.

Witnesses said Daivari squeezed the violent passenger's neck so hard he peed his pants. Then the wrestler threw the man out at the next stop.

Metro Transit Rail told TMZ that "Metro Transit police responded after being alerted by the train operator to a fight on board. The investigation is ongoing."
