What ever happened to the infamous Dr Disrespect? We have the answers.
What happened to Dr Disrespect? Herschel “Guy” Beahm IV, known around the esports community as ‘Dr.Disrespect,’ made headlines after being permanently banned from Twitch. There have been multiple speculations as to why Twitch banned him, but they haven’t given a tangible word on the exact reason.
Beahm has been vocal about his experience with Twitch, mostly due to the constant speculations surrounding his departure. “I’ve seen all the theories, I’ve seen all the possible conspiracies, and it’s just like, I’m just not interested in engaging in that type of stuff.”
Beahm wanted to make sure that it was clear to the gaming community that he had no idea about what happened and to give some sort of dialogue to his supporters. Unfortunately, due to Twitch’s lack of an official statement, people are still going to conclude what happened on their own, but that comes with the mystery of this whole situation.
Beahm spent about a month away from streaming after his ban became public and would quickly make his return to gaming on video-sharing platform Youtube.

Even without Twitch, it was clear that the Champion’s Club and Dr. Disrespect’s influence still ran deep in theesports community.

There is a section called ‘DrDisrespect Music’ with four songs that he created, which have all eclipsed a million views on his YouTube channel. His biggest hit is “Alleyways,” which has over six million views currently.
