Overview
- LAPD received a call on the night of the show, later classified the case as felony battery, and reported no arrests as of late August.
- Stuart “Syko Stu” Smith remains hospitalized with broken facial bones and lost teeth but is conscious, with family warning of a difficult recovery.
- Wrestlers who intervened say the beating could have been fatal, and some allege Andre Joel Hudson encouraged Raja to deliver a backstage “receipt.”
- Quinton “Rampage” Jackson says he does not condone the attack, notes his son recently suffered a concussion, reports racist death threats, and says he will let the legal process play out.
- A GoFundMe for Smith has surpassed six figures with donations from public figures, and KnokX Pro apologized, calling a planned spot that devolved into violence unacceptable.
