Social media influencer Mr. Beast wants to make an indie wrestler’s bad situation a bit better.

Raja Jackson, the son of UFC legend Quintin “Rampage” Jackson, was involved in an incident at a KnokX Pro event over the weekend. Jackson went off-script and ultimately injured Syko Stu, who was already knocked out and lying unconscious in the ring.

TMZ reported that the Los Angeles Police Department was called, and they opened a police report for an investigation into the incident.

“First and foremost our thoughts and prayers are with our brother Mr. Stuart Smith (Syko Stu) as he remains a priority and we are monitoring his well being,” a representative of KnokX Pro Wrestling Academy wrote in a statement. “What was supposed to be a planned and agreed upon wrestling spot turned into a selfish, irresponsible act of violence against Mr. Smith.”

Rampage Jackson also issued a statement about his son’s actions after the incident took place. USA Today reported that Syko Stu (Smith) was awake and able to speak in the hospital, but he had suffered broken bones in his face and lost several teeth. Smith’s brother, Andrew, says that his family has not started a GoFundMe campaign as of the time of his Facebook post on Sunday night.

However, that has not stopped Mr. Beast from trying to help out. Mr. Beast (real name Jimmy Donaldson) is a YouTube star who is best-known for his elaborate stunts and philanthropic efforts, including a $40 million campaign for clean water access around the world. Beast saw a post about Smith’s status and wrote the following on Twitter/X, offering to help in some way:

“Dang man, this hurts to see. Especially because I read he was a veteran that used wrestling as an outlet to get over ptsd,” Mr. Beast wrote. “Genuinely, 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.”
