DETROIT — A star wrestler is making headlines outside of the ring for the wrong reasons.

TMZ reports that World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wrestler Jimmy Uso, whose real name is Jonathan Fatu, was arrested after a confrontation with Detroit police.

Uso was allegedly pulled over by police when he got out of the car, took off his shirt and "squared up" as if ready to fight.  The wrestler was allegedly pulled over for going the wrong way down a road in downtown Detroit.

Uso allegedly calmed down when an officer pulled out an "energy weapon" and gave the suspect verbal commands.

Uso is half of the WWE tag-team known as "The Usos" which includes his twin brother Jey.
