MrBeast offers to help injured wrestler Syko Stu after Raja Jackson attack
YouTube star MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson) has pledged to support independent wrestler Syko Stu (Stuart Smith) after a violent incident at a KnokX Pro Wrestling event left Stu hospitalized with severe injuries.
The incident took place Saturday night in Los Angeles when Raja Jackson, son of MMA legend Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, entered the ring during a planned spot. Instead of following the script, Jackson allegedly knocked Stu unconscious and continued striking him until officials intervened.
KnokX Pro Wrestling condemned the altercation, calling it a “selfish, irresponsible act of violence.” The Los Angeles Police Department has since opened an investigation. Stu’s brother later confirmed on social media that the wrestler is in “stable but critical care.”
I want to clear up the misinformation about my son Raja. I’ve been confirmed that the wrestler ( Stewart Smith aka Syko Stu) is awake and stable. Raja was unexpectedly hit in the side of the head by him moments before Smith’s match, Raja was told that he could get his “payback”in…

MrBeast addressed the situation on X, expressing sympathy and offering financial or personal assistance. “Dang man, this hurts to see. Especially because I read he was a veteran that used wrestling as an outlet to get over PTSD,” Donaldson wrote. “If anyone connected to him knows of a way I can help please reach out. If his kid is a fan or I can help with hospital bills idk but I’ll help.”

Quinton “Rampage” Jackson has also issued a statement distancing himself from the attack, condemning his son’s actions. Meanwhile, fans across the wrestling community have shared messages of support for Syko Stu as he continues to recover.
The case remains under police review as officials determine whether charges will be filed against Raja Jackson.
