He’s facing a felony charge and remains behind bars on a $50,000 bond, TMZ reports.
The violent outburst went down in August during a KnockX Pro Wrestling event in California.
Raja stormed the ring, slammed Stuart Smith – knwon as Syko Stu – to the mat and rained down nearly two dozen punches as Stu lay unconscious.
The brutal barrage, lasting around 10-11 seconds, only ended when other wrestlers pried Raja off.
Douglas Malo, one of those who helped break up the fight, recalled the incident during his appearance on the Scaling Up Podcast.
He said: “I see the slam, I see the first punch and the second punch. I kind of wish I would have just sprung on the slam.
“You watch somebody you care about, he’s a veteran and these are people who are supposed to love him and I’m the only one on the outskirts to be told to watch this apparently.”
Syko Stu’s family revealed he was rushed to ER with a series of horrific injuries.
He sustained trauma to both his upper and lower jaws, along with a deep laceration to his upper lip.
Doctors also confirmed a fracture to the maxilla bone, which reportedly caused the loss of several teeth.

His family said in a statement: “He has a long road of recovery ahead, but he remains in good spirits despite everything he has been through.”
The wrestler had reportedly clashed with Raja just before the event, sparking the attack.

He told journalist Ariel Helwani: “He dishonored my name.
“I know he’s my f*****g son. I’m not cutting him off for forever. I just haven’t talked to him.
“I talked to him after this s**t happened and he hid the fact that he did this s**t and you know put my other kids at danger based off what other people said. I just can’t talk to him right now.”
The UFC legend went further, saying his son needs to face consequences.
He called for Raja to serve “a little time” in jail, adding community service, anger management and therapy should also be part of the punishment.
The LAPD had been investigating the August assault before swooping in to make the arrest.
