Scandal in the Ring: Raja Jackson Attacks Syko Stu
A shocking incident shook the world of wrestling. Raja Jackson, son of former UFC champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, was the protagonist of a brutal attack in the ring against professional wrestler Stuart Smith, known as Syko Stu. The incident took place at the KnokX Pro Wrestling Academy, where Jackson entered the ring and, off-script, attacked Smith. The attack, which was broadcast live and widely shared on social media, left the wrestler seemingly unconscious after receiving multiple blows to the head. After the assault, other fighters intervened to separate Jackson from Smith, who fled the academy located in Sun Valley, Los Angeles. Police authorities are already investigating the incident.KnokX Pro Entertainment & Academy issued a statement condemning the aggression and assuring that they are “monitoring” Smith’s health. The academy regretted what happened and apologized to its followers. Syko Stu, who presents himself as a military veteran, uses wrestling as a tool to manage post-traumatic stress disorder. Raja Jackson, 25, is also a mixed martial arts fighter, with a loss in his only professional fight in 2023. Rampage Jackson, for his part, also spoke about the incident through social media, indicating that Smith is “awake and stable.” He explained that the attack was part of a planned performance that “went wrong” after Smith allegedly angered Raja Jackson by hitting him in the head before the fight. The former UFC champion added that his son, being an MMA fighter and not a professional wrestler, “had nothing to do” at an event like this and that he does not approve of his actions. He also revealed that Raja Jackson had suffered a concussion days before the incident. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, who was the UFC light heavyweight champion in 2007 and 2008, has also ventured into professional wrestling and acting, highlighting his role as B.A. Baracus in the 2010 reboot of “The A-Team”.What was supposed to be a planned and agreed-upon moment of struggle turned into a selfish and irresponsible act of violence against Mr. Smith.
