00:00Welcome back to TMZ Live.

00:02There is ongoing fallout for the son of Rampage Jackson.

00:06Who is under investigation by the LAPD for almost killing a man in the ring.

00:10Right, and that investigation is still going on.

00:12But professionally, there are already consequences that he is suffering from this brutal beatdown

00:20during a professional wrestling match last weekend here in the L.A. area

00:26where he just snapped and no one really understands why.

00:32Well, there was beef. There was beef before because...

00:35But even that doesn't add up.

00:37Well, nothing justifies it, but he seemed pissed off at the guy

00:41because the guy hit him over the head with a cup, which was part of an act.

00:46And this guy then took it personally.

00:48Almost killed that wrestler. Almost killed him.

00:51Psycho Stu.

00:52Psycho Stu.

00:53So Raja is now under criminal investigation.

00:56And hopefully he will be charged for that.

00:59But the fact that it got a lot of publicity seems to be why his name popped up on another wrestling promotion.

01:08But TMZ Sports has done a little digging into this.

01:12And it seems like someone just wanted to profit off of this controversy.

01:19But it actually turned out that even if they were going to use him in a weird way.

01:26Right, right. So two parts to it.

01:28So this danger wrestling promotion, that very small kind of indie wrestling promotion,

01:33they post that we've signed Raja, buy tickets, he's going to wrestle at one of our events.

01:38And people are losing their minds then.

01:39Like, what? How's this guy going to perform?

01:42Well, why would they let him?

01:43Why would they let him?

01:44Turns out they didn't.

01:45It was just a publicity stunt.

01:47A publicity stunt by the organization.

01:49By the organization.

01:51So then Lucas talks to the venue.

01:53And the venue says, no, he's not booked.

01:56And by the way, he's not allowed.

01:58So he's not...

01:59What do they mean by he's not allowed?

02:01He's not welcome.

02:02So this is how it all played out.

02:04They posted this flyer right here.

02:06And so I called the venue that's listed underneath the flyer saying,

02:09hey, are you aware of what's going on here?

02:11I would just like a statement and just see where you stand on all of this.

02:15Because you told them about what happened with Raja.

02:17Yes, I sent the links and everything.

02:19They were completely unaware.

02:20They said, look, no, he's not going to be there.

02:22We didn't even sign him or anything.

02:24He's not going to be there.

02:24You know why the venue said no, right?

02:25I mean, there is massive liability if they would allow that to happen.

02:30And the venue is because they're on notice of what he did.

02:33This guy could be facing an attempted murder charge in a matter of days.

02:36He may be.

02:37He may be.

02:38Yeah.

02:38He may be.

02:39I think he should.

02:40I'm Marie LeBetter from Fort Smith, Arkansas.

02:42This wasn't a, quote, work gone wrong.

02:44It was a reckless assault by Raja.

02:46Psycho was just doing his job in a scripted environment.

02:49Look, there's no place for this in wrestling or combat sports.

02:52My thoughts are with Psycho and his family.

02:55And I hope he makes a full recovery.

02:56Well, he almost died.

02:58How is he right now, by the way?

02:59How is Psycho doing?

02:59Do we know?

03:00He is.

03:01Yeah.

03:01Steve talked to the guy who actually rescued him, one of the wrestlers.

03:05He's in the hospital still.

03:06Still?

03:07Still in the hospital, but he's conscious and he's communicating.

03:09He's got family, friends visiting him.

03:11So I think he's on the road to recovery, but still hospitalized.

03:14After how many days?

03:15It's Saturday night.

03:15It's a week almost.

03:17Wow.

03:18Wow.

03:19Wow.

03:20Wow.

03:21Wow.

03:23Wow.

03:25Wow.

03:27Wow.

03:29Wow.
