Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson has returned to streaming on Kick days after his son’s attack on wrestler Syko Stu. The father of Raja Jackson hopes to one day shake the wrestler’s hand and ask for forgiveness.
The son of former UFC champion Rampage Jackson livestreamed a vicious assault on August 23. Raja Jackson was attending a local independent show hosted by KnokX Pro Wrestling.
After a ‘worked’ altercation earlier in the day, Raja was infuriated for the rest of the Kick stream, assuring viewers multiple times over that he’d get his revenge on local wrestler Syko Stu. At one point, he was even asked ‘How many gifted [subs] to knock him out?’

Jackson eventually entered the ring, slammed Stu to the ground, instantly knocking him out, before landing over a dozen unanswered strikes to the head. Stu has been hospitalized ever since.
Now, Raja’s father has returned to the public spotlight, speaking in detail about the incident and assuring viewers he fully agrees the actions of his son were wrong.
