Quinton Jackson and the promotion that held the show said the incident involving Raja Jackson and wrestler Stuart “Syko Stu” Smith appeared to be a case of a planned spot gone wrong.

Raja Jackson, the son of former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, appeared to brutally assault a professional wrestler at an independent wrestling event in California on Saturday.

Rampage Jackson apologized on social media on behalf of his son and said the incident was a miscommunication. He said his son was unexpectedly hit in the head moments before Smith's match and was told that he could get his "payback" in the ring as part of the show.
