Knokx Pro Wrestling incident involving Raja Jackson and Stuart Smith
The organizer of the event featuring former UFC champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s son has condemned the altercation as “reprehensible.” Knokx Pro Wrestling said the episode, which involved Raja Jackson, should never have occurred.
Raja Jackson, a 25-year-old professional MMA fighter, is at the center of two incidents with wrestler Stuart Smith (also known as Syko Stu) that were streamed on the platform Kick. The first altercation occurred near the venue when US Army veteran Smith appeared to strike Jackson outside the arena. During the match portion inside the ring, Jackson climbed in, lifted a downed opponent, and slammed him onto the canvas, an action that appeared to render Smith unconscious. Jackson then allegedly struck Smith repeatedly before others pulled him away.
Knokx Pro Wrestling issued a strong statement: the incident was “a selfish, irresponsible act of violence against Mr Smith.” They described the plan as a simple, agreed-upon wrestling spot that devolved into a dangerous and unwarranted attack. The promotion extended its thoughts and prayers to Smith, emphasizing that his well-being remains a priority as the organization monitors his condition.
The organization also highlighted that in its 17 years of operation, it has never witnessed anything so heinous and apologized to patrons and fans for the incident. Quinton Jackson, who was in attendance, expressed that he was deeply concerned and very upset by what happened, calling it a “work gone wrong” in wrestling terminology.
Local authorities reportedly opened an investigation into the matter. TMZ reported that the Los Angeles Police Department is probing the incident, though no official statements have been released by law enforcement at this time.
