"Foreign Object"
By Peter Staniforth
"An Open Letter to Herbie, of TWCFight/The Wrestling Channel"
For reasons I'm actually quite unsure of, in recent months, I've had to put up with what I feel is unjustified abuse, sarcasm, and general childish comments; from the direction of the person that this is written about/to.
I have absolutely NO idea what Herbie's apparent issues are with me, but from cheesy little playground style comments on a certain UK based wrestling forum that blatantly encourages such behaviour, to comments left on You Tube video's involving myself; and more - I've decided, since I can't seem to get any reply from him or any justification for these remarks; to take this public in the hopes to find out just what his problem is.
So I ask you, Herbie; what is it? Is it my 1PW past? One thing you cannot do is blame me for whatever issues you've had in the past with Steven Gauntley, because 1PW and TWC forged their one time working arrangement after my involvement in 1PW ended; and I have absolutely nothing to do with 1PW now.
Is it the fact your 'Wrestling Channel' went from interesting, with shows people wanted to watch; to a muddled up botch of shows that even the message board and forum smarks that you care so much about criticise the viewing quality of? You lost TNA, which was a main reason people tolerated your channel for god's sake. Are you just bitter with life because of that, and I'm a random target?
But, the thing is, what's bothering me isn't the fact you're saying it; it's just that I want to know WHY you're constantly taking cheap shots at me. I mean, I don't care that people might take this seriously because you're saying it; because no-one takes you as a person seriously. And I can now show the world why this is, with just one simple click of the link below :

Because, whatever you're saying about me, this picture of you speaks a thousand words. It's like a random picture of a typical self righteous smartmark who has zero place in the wrestling business. With the t-shirt of one company worn, and the replica belt of another company over his shoulder; pretending to pose like a wrestler and making a complete idiot of himself and an embarrassment of the wrestling business - this, ladies and gentlemen, is Herbie.
I don't claim to be perfect, I have a well known kayfabed ego (which those who know me know is an entirely different matter deep down), but I have an beyond intense love for professional wrestling; and a desire to continually chase my dreams whilst still respecting the past, present, and future of this business. You.... what do you have? A channel that is on the slide, and once it goes down for the count; you'll have nothing. And then you'll slide on out of the business like every other failed smart mark who didn't belong in it in the first place.
