Mr. Beast, Chris Jericho, more donate to Syko Stu GoFundMe campaign

After saying that he wanted to help out Syko Stu in the wake of Raja Jackson’s attack, YouTuber Mr. Beast has followed through with a big donation.
Mr. Beast (Jimmy Donaldson) made a $10,000 donation today to a GoFundMe campaign to help Stu, whose real name is Stuart Smith. The campaign has raised more than $90,000 so far with the money going toward medical expenses, recovery support, and helping Stu with the loss of income he’s going to experience during his recovery.
The attack happened on Saturday at a show for KnokX Pro Wrestling in Los Angeles, with the promotion calling it a planned spot that turned into a “selfish, irresponsible act of violence.” Raja Jackson, the person who attacked Stu, is the son of UFC legend Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.
With the incident making international news, it caught the attention of Mr. Beast, who has the most-subscribed to channel on YouTube with more than 420 million subs on his main channel alone.
“Dang man, this hurts to see. Especially because I read he was a veteran that used wrestling as an outlet to get over ptsd,” Mr. Beast tweeted earlier this week. “Genuinely, if anyone connected to him knows of a way I can help please reach out. If his kid is a fan or I can help with hospital bills idk but I’ll help.”
Stu’s GoFundMe has also received a $2,500 donation from Chris Jericho and a $1,000 donation from Swerve Strickland. Rusev, Ariya Daivari, and NBA player Kristaps Porzingis are among the other donors.
In an update last night, Stu’s brother Andrew Smith said Stu is “currently conscious and able to talk but will have a difficult recovery ahead.” He noted that Stu appreciates all of the love and support he’s received.
KnokX Pro was part of the WWE ID program prior to having its affiliation pulled after the incident.
An investigation into the attack by the LAPD remains ongoing.
