Raja Jackson, 25, son of UFC legend Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, was arrested Thursday following a violent altercation at a Knokx Pro Wrestling event in Los Angeles late last month.
TMZ Sports reports Jackson was booked on a felony charge of battery with serious bodily injury. Jail officials confirm he has since bonded out on $50,000.
Shocking Incident at Knokx Pro Wrestling
The melee unfolded when Jackson reportedly got into a dispute with wrestler Syko Stu (real name Stuart Smith) prior to the event. Security footage shows Raja slamming Smith to the mat and landing nearly two dozen punches while the wrestler was unconscious.
Witnesses say the assault lasted 10–11 seconds before other wrestlers intervened. Smith was hospitalized for several days with multiple injuries, including a fractured maxilla, but has since been released and is recovering at home.
“It was completely uncalled for,” one attendee told TMZ Sports.
Rampage Jackson Responds
Quinton “Rampage” Jackson weighed in on his son’s actions, calling for accountability.
“He should spend some time in jail. A little community service, anger management, and therapy would be good for Raja as well,” Rampage said.
The UFC star’s public statement underscores the seriousness of the incident and the family’s desire for corrective measures rather than just ignoring the event.
Legal and Public Reaction
Jackson’s arrest has sparked conversation across social media, with many expressing shock over the level of violence and the fact it occurred in a professional wrestling setting.
Legal experts say a felony battery with serious bodily injury charge carries significant penalties, potentially including prison time, fines, and mandatory counseling or community service.
Jackson’s case is ongoing, and authorities continue to review evidence from the wrestling event.
The violent attack has left fans and attendees rattled, while Raja Jackson’s bond release signals the beginning of what could be a lengthy legal process.
