Syko Stu forgives Raja Jackson despite suffering “traumatic brain injury”

During the July 2 court appearance, Syko Stu explained that he harbors no ill will towards Jackson while detailing the extent of his injuries, which have left him unable to work.

“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,” he said.

According to the LA Times, Smith said the assault left him with memory loss and reduced cognitive function, and that he has been unable to work for nearly a year. However, he still forgave Jackson.

“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.”

In August 2025, Jackson entered the ring at KnokX Pro Wrestling Academy while streaming on Kick and repeatedly punched Syko Stu.

The clash followed an earlier moment where Stu believed Jackson’s appearance was part of the show and pretended to hit him with a beer.

The pair appeared to smooth things over afterward, but promoters tried to work the tension into a storyline. However, when Jackson stepped into the ring, he began throwing real punches before other wrestlers pulled him away.

Before the incident, Jackson told viewers it was his “dream to f**k up a pro wrestler” and said he was “really going to hit him.”
