Rampage Jackson’s Son Injures Wrestler in Viral California Event

Raja Jackson, son of MMA legend Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, was involved in a controversial incident during a Knokx Pro Wrestling event where he attacked wrestler Stuart Smith, also known as Syko Stu, with real punches after an apparent knockout, leading to widespread backlash. The fight, originally intended to be staged ('a work'), escalated unexpectedly when Raja, who had suffered a recent concussion and is primarily an MMA fighter, retaliated after being hit moments before the match. Rampage Jackson publicly condemned his son's actions, apologized to Smith and the wrestling community, and clarified that Smith is awake, stable, and recovering despite rumors of his death. Rampage emphasized that Raja had no place participating in a wrestling event and expressed concern for both his son's health and Smith's wellbeing. The viral video sparked calls for better safety measures at wrestling events and led to Raja being banned from the streaming platform Kick. Knokx Pro Wrestling, affiliated with WWE, has been approached for comment but has not provided an update on Smith's condition.
