Syko Stu (real name Stuart Smith) has been discharged from the hospital following the harrowing incident.
Last month, the pro wrestler found himself at the center of chaos during a KnokX Pro Wrestling show in Los Angeles. What began as playful banter with Raja Jackson, who was live streaming the night on his KICK channel, was momentarily diffused, only to resurface later.
Still fuming, Jackson was given the green light by the promotion to exact scripted revenge on Stu, setting the stage for a dramatic in-ring showdown that played off their earlier clash.
However, the playful banter quickly got out of hand after Jackson was given the green light by a production staffer. Fired up by backstage tensions and encouraged by his livestream audience, the son of former UFC champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson carried the fight into the ring, slamming Syko Stu hard to the mat and unleashing a series of unanswered punches that left him unconscious before other wrestlers rushed in to stop the assault.
