What happened with Rampage Jackson's son Raja?

Video of the incident at a KnokX Pro Wrestling Academy event on 23 August 2025 showed Raja Jackson entering the ring during a match, slamming Stuart Smith to the mat before mounting him and punching him in the face more than two dozen times, prompting other wrestlers to pull Jackson away.

The incident was shown on Kick, a live streaming platform, and revealed Raja slamming Stuart Smith, also known as "Syko Stu", to the mat before punching him several times in the head while the wrestler was motionless on the canvas.

Smith spent several days in intensive care before being released on 31 August. He later detailed his injuries on Facebook, stating that he had a "serious head injury," as well as trauma to both jaws, a laceration to his upper lip, and a fracture to the maxilla bone, which resulted in the loss of several teeth.

Rampage was quick to address the incident publicly. In a post on social media, he explained his understanding of what had occurred.

It was bad judgement, and a work that went wrong. Raja is a MMA fighter not a pro wrestler and had no business involved in an event like this. I don't condone my son's actions AT ALL!

Rampage Jackson said the assault was part of a previously planned performance that "went wrong" after Smith apparently angered Raja Jackson by unexpectedly hitting him in the side of the head earlier in the day.

Speaking on The Ariel Helwani Show, Rampage said:

I think he should do a little [jail] time. Do a little community service, and go to anger management class, get some therapy.
