RVD Addresses Tweeting “I Got Raja’s Back” Following Shameful Incident At KnokX Pro Show

RVD is often outspoken and has never been worried about who he upsets in the process. Still, after saying on X that “I got Raja’s back,” regarding Raja Jackson’s savage attack on Syko Stu Smith, the WWE Hall of Famer has had to clarify his comments on his podcast. This would see RVD state he sees how this situation happened, and with Jackson not being a wrestler, he should never have been put in a position where this could happen, seemingly placing the blame on Rikishi’s KnokX Pro indie promotion.

“When I watched everything, and when I say that ‘I have his back’, I’m not saying I’m going to stand back to back and fight a crowd of f*cking million people that are trying to lynch him. What I’m saying is, I see the pathway that he took that led to what happened … He’s not a pro wrestler. He shouldn’t have been part of this at all.”Rob Van Dam

As of writing, the GoFundMe has been launched to help cover Smith’s medical bills, with the original target of $13,000 smashed in just a few hours, likely due to the story getting mainstream attention. However, while the money will obviously be a massive help to Smith and his family, it appears he has a long road ahead of him, with it noted that he lost several teeth and had blood flowing from his ears, suggesting he may have a permanent disability.
