LAPD Probes Raja Jackson’s Wrestling Assault as Bans Expand and Legal Scrutiny Intensifies

A wrestler who intervened says a detective expects prosecutors to take the case.

Overview

  • The venue for an upcoming Danger Pro Wrestling show told TMZ Sports that Raja Jackson will not be allowed in, following KnokX Pro’s condemnation of the Aug. 23 incident.
  • California attorney Ugo Lord said video shows Jackson went off script and continued striking an unconscious performer, concluding the conduct would constitute battery.
  • LAPD has confirmed an active investigation into the attack that left Stuart “Syko Stu” Smith hospitalized with severe head and facial injuries.
  • Smith’s family reports he is conscious and able to speak, though a long recovery is expected, and fundraising efforts are underway to cover medical and income losses.
  • Quinton “Rampage” Jackson was confronted on a livestream and said he and his family have received racist and death threats, adding he does not condone his son’s actions.
