MrBeast has made a touching gesture to support wrestler Syko Stu, who is recovering from a brutal attack by Raja Jackson.
Stu, whose real name is Stuart Smith, suffered serious injuries during a KnokX Pro Academy event earlier this month.
Raja Jackson, son of MMA legend Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, body slammed the 42-year-old Army veteran before delivering more than twenty punches. The assault sent him to critical care, though his family later confirmed he is stable.
Supporters quickly launched a GoFundMe titled “Help Support SykoStu’s Recovery Journey” to cover medical bills. Organizer Contessa Patterson explained that Stu’s injuries include facial fractures, tooth loss, restricted movement and speech impairment.
“This incident has not only caused major physical harm, but will also disrupt his career inside the ring and outside of it,” she wrote.
The fundraiser set a $110,000 goal, with donations going toward treatment, rehabilitation and lost income. More than 2,500 people have contributed so far. AEW stars Chris Jericho and Swerve Strickland joined the list of donors.
Rampage Jackson also addressed the situation. On social media, he admitted his son showed “bad judgment.” He wrote, “Raja was told that he could get his ‘payback’ in the ring, I thought it was part of the show.” He later condemned the assault and wished Stu a speedy recovery.
One name on the donor list stood out. MrBeast made the fundraiser’s largest single contribution, instantly pushing the total closer to its goal. His gesture spread quickly online and turned a small wrestling campaign into an international story.
