chokeslammed

Throttled then floored

Chokeslammed is the past tense of chokeslam, a professional wrestling move where one wrestler grabs another by the throat, lifts them, and slams them to the mat.

Outside wrestling, it describes being violently thrown down or, figuratively, being utterly dominated or defeated: The bill got chokeslammed in committee.
