Rampage’s son beats a wrestler into a coma! At in indie wrestling event!

[don't ask]

I was never under the impression that they would tell him that. That's why I refuted it by asking the questions on WHO that information came from. Raja and Rampage probably.

And Trabaho yes I've seen the videos. I don't remember him/they specifically telling him to punch him. Just that he was gonna get some "get back".

Check out the video of Raja walking down the hallway with the guy in the cowboy hat. The entire conversation was about Raja letting him have it. I'm less confident Raja is going to jail after seeing that video.

oh absolutely 100%. my only question is where the hell the people who were supposed to pull him off were at.

Rajas friend was supposed to pull him off but he let it continue. It was another wrestler that finally got him off. The wrestler friend of Raja should be charged as well.

tagging @deviake bc u seemed interested in this
@flektarn no thumbs up yet..

Tragic photo. I hope he makes a miraculous recovery.

 

[pātrēärkē]

He did what they told him to

No one told him to do what he did, as if that should even matter to a functioning brain. This ain't 13 sins

 

[HerpDerp]

Didn't Kick let some guy be tortured for years on their platform? One would think as soon as they found out people were making lots of money by torturing a fella that they would ban them immediately. I only know about this because there was a headline like a week ago that said the dude ended up dying.

They did.

Guy ended up dying from a literal lack of sleep I believe, his central nervous system just gave out and shut down.

Kick is a soulless, morally bankrupt platform owned by Stake that doesn't run with an aim to generate a profit from ad revenue and the like, but solely to promote their shitty gambling service to gambling addicts. Fuck them.

78 pages?!?

It's super simple: an unhinged maniac - irrelevant if he was supposed to put on a wrestling show or not, as it would anyway have been staged not real - slammed a man on his head rendering him unconscious and then punched him as hard as he could over a dozen times, stopping only because multiple people dragged him off and restrained him.

That is at least assault and possibly attempted murder (attempted assuming the victim makes it through and without permanent disabilities): it's a complete farce if he doesn't do serious time.

It's totally undefensible.

You're forgetting how many morons and racists are on Sherdog. This thread would be twice as long if Psycho Stu was a woman.

I read somewhere that that guy isn't actually part of the promotion and is just a random wrestler who happened to be there and he's also a friend of Raja's.

 

[HockeyBjj]

What do you think the promoters will tell the coppers? Would arguing for it being a shoot gone bad be better for them?

I don't know enough about wrestling to know. But that's a conversation the cops will want to have before recommending charges to the DA and getting a warrant

Oh my god. This gets dumber and dumber.

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

Apparently that guy is not part of the promotion and is just a wrestler who was there and who also was friends with Rafa.

I can't remember where the fuck I read it now and it's going to be a bother to try and pull it up.

In that case, I hope he realizes how badly he fucked up, and I get that he couldn't have possibly known what he was party to instigating.
But it would probably send me on a downward spiral to find out that my throw away tough talk while playing a character was taken as "giving the go ahead" to someone who did what he did that less than an hr later.

Same with the Samoan/Hawaiian guy who suggested incorporating the misunderstanding into the story of the match when they had literally just shook up and squashed it.

Again, obviously they can't be expected to notice something that they don't even know to be on the look out for.
Maybe it's time to define the lines between "working and not working" more clearly, this happened one goof up at a time, one after another after another right under all of their noses.

The blurring of reality and make believe will end up costing multiple people untold amounts when it's all said and done

 

[Natural Order]

Cali courts will get him to do a PSA and he'll be on probation for 2 years.

Won't you think of this man's future to society!?!

 

[CodCommando]

I heard Raja has a concusssion two days prior. He's likely get a light sentence. Of previous good character too. And also even though the retaliation was pre med -- he was still assaulted an hour before the attack, which lawyers will argue worsened his mental state. No doubt Rampage will be footing a hefty mult mil payout too.

 

[DougieJones]

"lept into action" fuck everyone involved in that carnie show.

What in the everloving fuck

 

[BForrester]

im 79 i could buy your whole family 10 times over. i won in my life.

Suuuure you could.

 

[DougieJones]

not just that but they blatantly told him to go "tag his shit"



if only all these clips were around yesterday, i wouldn't have looked like such a dumbass thinking this thing was a work.

Bro today is the 25th

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

I don’t live in the US, but here in my third-world country, the guy would already be detained at a police station or held in preventive custody. I read in the news that the police are still investigating. So basically you can just attack someone freely and stay out of jail until someone decides otherwise?lol

My guess is that they know it's about open and shut case, they have everything they in terms of evidence.
The only thing that could fuck it up is if they goof up anything between now and when they they eventually book him on charges.

OJ and Casey Anthony are notorious examples of murderers being found not guilty due to the prosecution making mistakes, either in chain of custody or which charge they will actually be able to prove, not just go with the harshest one available and risk leaving a loophole for a mistrial

Honestly, it happening at a pro-wrestling event will certainly complicate things all around. They kind of police themselves. This isn't the first fucked up beatdown at an indie show. There was a notorious one at a hardcore show(think it was Ian Rotten's promotion) years ago, where they invited some random indie wrestler who was taunting the promotion for being afraid of him or some shit. They book the dude and then proceed to kick the ever living fuck out of him. Like full on top rope head stomps onto a ladder with extremely bad intentions. I don't believe anybody got charged. The Mass Transit incident is the only one I can think of that got close to having legal consequences. New Jack alone was a walking lawsuit, who took pride in maiming wrestlers wherever he went. Nothing serious ever happened to him.

 

[don't ask]

Just caught up. Five new pages overnight. Less than I was expecting. Three pages when I skipped over the dipshits.

Classic FAFO

Yes to people who dont belong in a civilized society and belong in prison, yes i agree.

Same thing with Rampage.

Lets say his son actually goes to prison.

Now he can rewatch himself tormenting his son for being a bitch to those wrestlers backstage which only made him more desperate to prove something.

Watching that and knowing the outcome can't feel great as the fucking dad...
