The promotion shared a statement on social media earlier today following Jackson's attack on Syko Stu. The company claimed that Jackson's actions were selfish and irresponsible. KnokX Pro added that they had never seen such a heinous act take place since they began operations 17 years ago.

"First and foremost our thoughts and prayers are with our brother Mr. Stuart Smith (Syko Stu) as he remains a priority and we are monitoring his well being. What was supposed to be a planned and agreed upon wrestling spot, turned into a selfish, irresponsible act of violence against Mr. Smith. This egregious act is reprehensible and never should have occurred. In the 17 years of operation of KnokX Pro Wrestling Academy, there has never been anything as heinous take place such as this and we apologize to our patrons and fans," read the post.
