Sports Illustrated reported that Uso was taken to the Escambia County Corrections Center in Pensacola before being released on a $1,000 bond.

Uso was arrested in February in Detroit for disorderly conduct and obstruction. The grappler was also previously arrested for DUI in 2011 and 2013.

Uso is one half of tag team The Usos, alongside his twin brother Jey Uso. He is married to WWE star Naomi.

John Cena recently mocked Uso's arrest record on WWE's Monday Night Raw program when he was challenged by the tag team to a rap battle.

"Respect for calling me out but ain't no way I'm getting bested/ Ya'll look just like you're mugshots/ How was it getting arrested?" Cena said.
