Daniel Stephen Rodimer (born May 22, 1978), also known by his ring name Dan Rodman, is an American retired professional wrestler, former football player, and former political candidate.
[7][8][9][10] Just minutes before the March 5, 2021, filing deadline, he announced his candidacy for Texas's 6th congressional district special election.
[11] On March 6, 2024, an arrest warrant was issued for Rodimer in Las Vegas on a charge of open murder.
[13] Rodimer grew up in Rockaway, New Jersey, and attended Seton Hall Preparatory High School in West Orange.
On September 24, he had his first televised match in DSW as Dan Rodimer, defeating Tommy Suede.
He was noted for dramatically changing his accent and persona in his campaign ad compared to his run in Nevada the previous year.
[25] Prior to this, the family lived in Las Vegas, where Rodimer was a member of the Clark County School District Safety Advisory Committee in 2018.
In that agreement he admitted to committing the offense, and upon completion of a six-week anger management training course the charge was dropped.
He was also accused of assault in 2011 and 2013, according to records from the Collier County (Florida) Sheriff's Office; however, in both cases no charges were filed.
