New damning Raja Jackson clip emerges from before Syko Stu attack and it doesn't look good
A damning clip of Raja Jackson speaking to his chat prior to his violent attack on professional wrestler Syko Stu has resurfaced online.
The 25-year-old, the son of former UFC star Rampage 'Quinton' Jackson, left former US army veteran Stuart Smith in hospital with lost teeth and broken facial bones after slamming him to the mat and hitting him with more than 20 punches while unconscious.
Jackson was streaming at the Knokx Pro Wrestling's show in Los Angeles, California and had a backstage altercation with Stu, who smashed a beer can on the side of his head and told him, "You need to be worried about Syko Stu"
When made aware that Jackson was not in the wrestling business, he apologised multiple times and the two appeared to bury the hatchet.

It was then arranged for Jackson to have a spot in Stu's tag-team wrestling match but he went off script completely after another wrestler, AJ Mana, told him to exact revenge and deliver a "f***ing receipt".
The police are reported to be investigating the incident and there is plenty of material to look at as the entirety was broadcasted live on Raja's Kick.

Ringside for the match, Jackson told his chat what he was going to do to Smith, saying: "I'm going to show him you can't just hit a can on my face. I'm really going to hit him. I'm telling you. I'm dead serious, this s*** isn't going to be scripted. I know wrestling is scripted, I'm talking about what I'm going to do to the guy."
Jackson said he was going to hit Stu as many times as he wanted and appeared to do just that when he entered the ring.
Wrestlers, including Douglas Malo, ran in to stop Jackson from continuing his attack and he continued to get physical with them. Strangely, Smith was still pinned by an opponent to finish the match when completely out cold.
Jackson was escorted from the venue and did not seem to offer much remorse for his actions, continuining to stream outside and venting to the camera.
"I'm tired of motherf***ers playing with me, bro. Real sh**," Jackson, with Stu's blood on his t-shirt.
"I'm tired of everybody f**king playing with me and sh*t. Think I'm always playing and sh*t, call me b**ch and sh**. I'm not no f***ing b**ch, bro.
"At the end of the day, I'm going to stand up for my f***ing self because I'm tired of everybody f***ing playing with me. Real sh**!"
In an update delivered on Facebook, Stu's brother Andrew shared a picture of him "resting" in his hospital bed and stated that he "does have some recollection of the events" which transpired.
A GoFundMe set up to cover medical expenses, recovery support and loss of income has surpassed $60,000 - with donations from WWE legends like Chris Jericho.
