Indie wrestlers Douglas Malo and Ian Morgan, who wrestle for
KnokX Pro, appeared on The Scaling Up podcast to discuss the
Syko Stu/Raja Jackson incident from Saturday night,
revealing that an employee from the training school is
sending messages to students telling them not to speak to
law enforcement or anyone.
Two text messages allegedly from Kevin Thomas, who is a
former U.S. Army Combat vet himself, were shown during the
podcast.
“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,” the first text
said.
The second one read, “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.
@everyone.”
The two indie wrestlers praised KnokX owner Rikishi, who was
not at the event, and said that what happened on Saturday
doesn’t represent Rikishi in any way.
Syko Stu, real name Stuart Smith, is a military veteran who
used wrestling as to get over PTSD.
WWE has since cut ties with the training school and KnokX
Pro is no longer a WWE ID-affiliated promotion.
