Former WWE Star Shawn Daivari says he used a REAR NAKED CHOKE HOLD to save a train full of people last week ... after an unruly passenger allegedly threatened to kill them.
TMZ spoke to Daivari ... who says the incident went down last Thursday on an airport bound train from Minneapolis. The WWE star says an uncontrollable passenger in his car became violent ... shouted racial slurs and threatened to kill his fellow passengers.
Daivari says multiple people pressed the emergency button to call for help -- but NOTHING happened.
The pro-wrestler then took matters into his own hands telling TMZ, "I wasn't going to wait any longer to see if a cop showed up." Daivari says he threw the guy down, slapped on a rear naked choke hold on him and then threw his ass out at the next stop.
One witness, who was on the train when it all went down, tells us Daivari choked out the passenger so hard ... he peed his pants.
A rep for the Metro Transit Rail tells TMZ ... "Metro Transit police responded after being alerted by the train operator to a fight on board. The investigation is ongoing."
Daivari is a great talent! I was shocked to see him advertised to wrestle in a run down old nightclub in Morecambe, England not so long ago. The place holds like 200 people! He should still be with WWE ffs!
He threw him out at the next station, what if the madman go all bonkers at the next station and start attacking everyone at that station?
Idk how this should end but it's.. just too scary.
Great on the part of Daivari.
