Dr Disrespect’s controversial career and the events leading to his bans on major platforms remain a significant topic in the gaming community. His move to Rumble marks the latest chapter, as the streamer aims to rebuild after years of scrutiny and setbacks.

The move to Rumble is the latest development in the Dr Disrespect streaming saga that began four years ago. In 2020, Dr Disrespect, whose real name is Herschel “Guy” Beahm, was banned from Twitch with little explanation mere months after signing a multi-million dollar exclusivity deal.

Guy Beahm, the streamer better known as Dr Disrespect, has joined the right-wing streaming platform Rumble, not just as a streamer but also as lead of Rumble Gaming —not esports talent agency of the same name, which is unrelated, but the platform's gaming-focused livestream category.
