KnokX Pro Management Reportedly Discouraging Talent From Speaking to Authorities Over Syko Stu & Raja Jackson Incident

– During the Scaling Up Podcast, it was alleged by a former KnokX Pro talent that the promotion is contacting wrestlers and telling them not to speak to law enforcement authorities regarding the recent incident between Raja Jackson and wrestler Syko Stu that took place over the weekend at at a KnokX Pro event (via Fightful).

The talent, who was not identified and wasn’t present at the event, was given details about how KnokX Pro is encouraging talents not to speak with the LAPD, who is investigating the incident. The wrestler stated the following:

“I was not present for this event. I was at home, I heard about it like everybody else, until I started communicating with my friends and colleagues at that organization, and they were giving me details. I have actually stepped away from the wrestling world because of personal growing safety concerns and social concerns in terms of my reputation. I have been slowly distancing myself from this brand because I am not surprised at all that this happened. There are some great people in this industry. There are a lot of bad people congregated at that place.

“The most disgusting thing, which is the reason why I ultimately decided to be present for this, given that my involvement wasn’t direct with the situation that has gone viral, which a blessing and a curse. Part of me wishes so bad that I was there to assist the situation and help my friend. The other part of me is glad I wasn’t there because there is a good chance I would have gotten locked up that night as well if I was present. The most disgusting thing is that people at this school are being encouraged not to cooperate with the police. From what I hear, the police were there investigating the scene shortly after Stu was removed and there have been multiple requests that have gone downstream from upper management to not talk with the police directly if they are contacted and to only let a certain group of individuals interact with the police. That is extremely dishonest. You let your friend almost die, and now you’re trying to have people lie for you. Fuck you to every single person who replied to them ‘Yes, sir.’ You are all weak sacks of shit and I hope you rot in hell. You are wasting oxygen other people can be breathing. Go fuck yourself. If you continue to be complacent in this investigation and you side with people who you know are wrong, I wish nothing but the worst for you.”

The podcast also revealed text messages from KnokX Pro wrestler Kevin Thomas who wrote, “Please refrain from engaging in comment sections on social media posts about this tragedy. It will be weaponized in potential criminal and civil cases. Fly low. If law enforcement or an attorney for the suspect contacts you in any capacity, let someone here know right away for guidance on how to address them.”

Another message from an individual named Miguel reads, “No one needs to be discussing anything. I’ll shut this feed down.” Miguel is likely referring to KnokX Pro’s booker, Miguel Diaz.

KnokX Pro is owned by WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi. It was noted during the podcast (via PWInsider) that Rikishi was not at the event or in California when the incident took place.

Syko Stu is still currently hospitalized as a result of Jackson’s assault. No arrests have been made yet in connection to the incident.
