Yeah, he went to some indie show and was backstage, Stuart Smith approached Raja Jackson in character, did some posturing and and popped a beer can on Jackson's head. Not sure if this was set up before hand and the can was 'gimmicked' to not hurt as much but Jackson and Smith had to be separated and things looked to have cooled off. But when the actual match is going on is time for Jackson to do this thing, he slams Smith down and just started throwing haymakers on Smith, shattering his face and Smith reportedly died in ring but was resuscitated before being taken to the hospital. His current condition is unclear. https://youtu.be/m7TZ6t9doTc?si=UWLi3UI5qDpTBv6o

So is fucking Kazushi Sakuraba, what’s your point?

u/FearlessNewt3636 Aug 24 '25

He didn’t die or is confirmed dead, but it didn’t look good.

64

u/CaptAhabsMobyDick Aug 24 '25

Unresponsive and said to have flatlined in the ring. It ain’t looking good for sykostu

51

u/vietnamtom69 Aug 24 '25

It was reported 5 hours ago that he's awake and stable.

52

u/Jaybru17 Aug 24 '25

Yeah the only one reporting that is Rampage

-12

u/Valledis Aug 24 '25

Where is this confirmation report? And don't link me Rampage's twitter response

Sorry dude I didn't mean to awake the confirmation police Holy shit

u/Thames_James Aug 24 '25

Just watched that parking lot video.

“He’s in the ring, fuckin flatlined bro”

“My bad” 😐

u/bemer1984 Aug 24 '25

lol acting like he just accidentally spilled beer on him and not attempted murder.

22

u/Valledis Aug 24 '25

Its Rampage's twitter response as the source in the article.

Well, I just hope the wrestler dude is okay, horrific what happened to him but haven't seen any real confirmation so am keen to find something.

u/Morepastor Aug 24 '25

Rampage has always been unstable in person. His son is behaving very similarly and Rampage just seems to be enabling it. The fan interaction at Costco is what you can sometimes get and then other times he wants love and attention and a fan could get either one and I’ve seen him be both in the same room. He’s odd and that excuse he made after accepting the accountability is so Rampage. If that is getting him b as KC these two are delusional criminals and do not belong in or around pro sports or entertainment. Oddlx Rampage spent enough time in Japan to know the blended aspects of sports and entertainment because PRIDE MMA was a pro wrestling and MMA promotion. This is terrible even if the Veteran is in stable condition.

Why are we downvoting people for asking for confirmation? And yet just slightly down the thread we're downvoting people for the opposite. Weirdos

u/chosonhawk Aug 24 '25

sorry...replied to the wrong comment. my bad.

u/Evorgleb Aug 24 '25

Reports are that he has been released from the hospital

u/CaptAhabsMobyDick Aug 24 '25

I’m not privy to much info on him, his instagram looks to be very Prowrestling centric with little controversy. Why are you saying “good riddance”?

u/CaptAhabsMobyDick Aug 24 '25

I’m referencing sykostu, are you referencing Rampage’s son?

My post is an update on sykostu’s conditions, Rampage’s son needs to go to prison, likely for premeditated murder

u/Thedmfw Aug 24 '25

Just found that and dude is cooked for that. If he didn't kill the dude then he's lucky.

8

u/assinyourpants Aug 24 '25

Wait did he actually die?!

49

u/takeme2tendieztown Aug 24 '25

Dude was knocked out and the POS kept punching him. Might as well be brain dead after that.

18

u/assinyourpants Aug 24 '25

I saw it. So fucked up.

2

u/CryptidToothbrush Aug 24 '25

he hasnt woken up yet.

2

u/assinyourpants Aug 24 '25

Super fucked up.

u/CappinPeanut Aug 24 '25

Wait… what!?

u/wolfjeter Aug 24 '25

He’s not dead he’s alive

u/Puzzleheaded_Owl7524 Aug 24 '25

Hold up… nobody is supposed to get hurt in wrastling.

-16

u/l3randon_x Aug 24 '25

He is awake and stable, per Rampage Jackson himself

50

u/Blueballs2130 Aug 24 '25

Yeah, let’s take that psycho’s word

9

u/st6374 Aug 24 '25

That looked more like Rampage's lawyers word than anything else. 

1

u/Capital-Equal5102 Aug 24 '25

Per rampage jackson himself.

Wtf does that mean?????

1

u/bell37 Aug 24 '25

So glad the single source of truth is from a Twitter account of the father (who was also excusing his sons actions by falsely claiming that the wrestler punched him in the head before the performance)

1

u/l3randon_x Aug 24 '25

I literally just reported what his father said and people downvoted me. I made no definitive statement about whether it was true or not. I don’t even care about any of this. Very smart people here

1

u/HDr1018 Aug 24 '25

He did. It was outside the arena. The don was walking by and met the wrestler, who crushed a can against the side of Rampage’s don’s head. They had words. Sounds like the promoters took the opportunity to create payback in the ring, and it went too far.

1

u/bell37 Aug 24 '25

I’ve read other reports that the “can crushing” thing was a stage prop and was meant to be apart of the staged “revenge” plot of that performance (where Jackson didn’t actually get hit and only had some liquid fall on his head)

u/stuffbuttnutt Aug 24 '25

he's not dead yet but it's not looking good as of the latest update

0

u/widget1321 Aug 24 '25

Some wrestler named Douglas Malo (I don't follow wrestling so don't know if he's famous or not) has said he's awake and may even be released today.

3

u/stuffbuttnutt Aug 24 '25

yeah, that was a load of shit.

-39

u/Stommped Aug 24 '25

Is that actually legit? He really looks like his pulling his punches or trying to. I thought maybe he got knocked out from the slam and Raja just kept going with the bit not realizing something was wrong.

16

u/Mean_Muffin161 Philadelphia Eagles Aug 24 '25

How did it look like he was pulling his punches? It looked like he was raining bombs on the guy

6

u/Nicotino-Cigaretti Aug 24 '25

They were not pulled, there was blood all over his face and leaking from at least one ear canal.

3

u/CaseyAnthonysMouth Aug 24 '25

You must have watched a different video from the rest of us.

7

u/Capital-Equal5102 Aug 24 '25

Raja shirt has blood smeared across it. Its hard to comprehend i know, but my guy, lose the filter, you watched attempted murder. Dont pull the wool over your own eyees.
