WWE has cut ties with KnokX Pro and removed the promotion and training school from its WWE ID affiliation.
This comes in the aftermath of the horrible incident which happened this past Saturday when Raja Jackson, the son of former UFC fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson knocked out indie star Syko Stu and unloaded 22 unprotected punches to the head and face of Stu, who stayed motionless in the ring.
KnokX Pro, run by WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, was one of the first WWE ID-affiliated promotions along with Nightmare Factory, Elite Pro Wrestling Training Center, Reality of Wrestling, and Black & Brave Academy.
All references to KnokX Pro have been removed from the WWE Recruitment website.
The LAPD are currently investigating the incident from Saturday night which was premeditated and live streamed on Kick. The streaming platform confirmed to CNN that it has banned Raja permanently.
The incident was picked up by major media outlets including CNN, ABC News, NBC News, BBC, and others.
