I think the son of Ramage Jackson attacking the indy worker was one of the worst things ever. You?
I'd rather not compare awful events that have happened, but I will agree that this was an abhorent, disgusting thing that I think everyone with common sense obviously wishes had never happened. It could have led to someone's death for the most meaningless reasons. It made pro wrestling look like trash.
I am shocked that there was a locker room instructed basically not to talk about the Raja Jackson stuff without the blessing of the knokx company. Are you as shocked as I am?
No. It's been alleged, so we can't say they are doing that 100%, although the screenshots involved look damning on the surface. One has to assume they are obviously in protection mode. This is a world where there were talents who didn't want to break ranks against a locker room after Bruiser Brody was murdered in Puerto Rico, so I can't be shocked there could be some at Knokx who would want their locker room to close ranks and stay silent. They don't know what the fallout will be in terms of lawsuits or criminality, so they are scared and trying to protect themselves. It's not the smartest move but I am sure there's worry and paranoia running rampant right now, because there's no way they can know what the ripple effects will be as long as there's an investigation ongoing. But, that doesn't excuse them allegedly telling talents to come to them first.
Mark Henry said that the victim deserves some of the blame on TMZ. I am thinking he is crazy. Isn't he? It comes off like Mark is excusing what happens.
No. The first person to do something physically was Syko Stu, and by all accounts Raja Jackson didn't know why he was physically assaulted. If the argument is that Stu precipitated everything, Mark has a point. What Jackson did was horrible, but it wasn't just a case of someone not knowing what a worked punch is and instead connecting. He was angry and decided to, I am assuming, respond to what happened earlier. But, had he not been hit, I think it's a valid point that nothing would have happened. I don't believe for a second Mark Henry would ever excuse Raja Jackson's behavior. No way.
Should Doug Drago get a medal or something?
In a perfect world, I'd like to see AEW or WWE at least offer him a tryout, because, based on his actions, that's the type of person you want in your locker room. He saved someone's life.
Has WWE commented on the situation????
No, and they shouldn't. It didn't happen under their roof and they quickly moved to distance themselves from the company. What more can they do?
Do you think Syko Stu's family sues?
I have to think that's a worry for another day. They have to get him healthy. I would assume a lawyer will want to pursue civil action and get them as much money as possible, but whether they decide to go that route remains to be seen.
