According to a report from the LA Times, Raja Jackson did not contest one count of battery with serious bodily injury and also pled guilty to engaging in violent conduct and inflicting great bodily injury. He will also have to pay restitution to the victim amounting to USD 81,703.38.

Stu spoke at yesterday’s court hearing and had the following to say:

“What happened affected me deeply, and I do not minimize the seriousness of it. The injuries I suffered led to a long and difficult recovery that I am still trying to recover from, including treatment for a severe traumatic brain injury, a shattered maxilla, and a bone graft procedure.”

The District Attorney said that certain aspects of the nature of pro wrestling were taken into account, but that did not negate the serious harm caused to Stu. The now-retired professional wrestler also said he suffered memory loss and reduced cognitive function as a result of the assault and has been unable to work for nearly a year. However, he appeared to forgive Jackson for the incident.

“I do not stand here with hatred for a desire for revenge. I hold no grudges against Mr. Jackson. People can make terrible decisions in difficult moments,” Stu added. [H/T: LA Times]

What Happened Between Raja Jackson And The Professional Wrestler?

On August 23, 2025, a serious incident took place between Raja Jackson and professional wrestler Syko Stu at a KNOK X Pro Wrestling event.

Stu had smashed a can of beer on Jackson’s head just before the event, which appeared to antagonize the trained MMA fighter. Later during the show, and allegedly egged on by other wrestlers, Raja took matters into his own hands and attacked Syko Stu, who was in the middle of a bout.

He knocked the wrestler unconscious and kept assaulting him till he was pulled away by other athletes present at the scene. Stu was immediately admitted to the hospital with a serious head injury, including a facial fracture.

Jackson was eventually arrested for the act, and his bond was set at USD 50,000.
