- WHAS 11 in St. Louis reports that a four year old boy is believed to have killed his two year old brother by imitating a pro-wrestling move he saw on WWE Smackdown, according to the boy's mother.
Jacqueline Davis says she came out of the shower and found her two-year-old son Jacquion unresponsive on his bedroom floor.
She says her four-year-old son told her and police that he was pretending to be WWE professional wrestler who he watches dominate opponents on the Friday night show.
The 4-year-old allegedly choked his brother with part of a curtain.
Rescuers flew Jacquion by helicopter to Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital where doctors treated him in intensive care for four days until he died Tuesday.
Sources familiar with the case tell News 4 that autopsy results could take two weeks and that a police investigation is pending.
The victim's mother says she's convinced exposure to professional wrestling played a part in the tragic murder.

Not to be an asshole or anything like that but this is straight up bad parenting. First off, why would you let a 4 year old and a 2 year old child watch wrestling to begin with, and secondly which wrestler has ever choked out another wrestler with a curtain? Parents need to step up and start to take responsibility for this kind of stuff and not always blame tv shows or wrestling or video games for what their kids have done…
This reminds me of that story that came out like 2 years ago where a guy blamed Smackdown vs. Raw for him killing a homeless guy on the streets.
