Dear Mr. Baily:
As you know, World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. is the exclusive owner of numerous trademarks, service marks, and copyrights, including numerous copyrights for the images of its talent, and show footage. As owner of numerous copyrights, we vigilantly protect our copyrighted works and will not tolerate any infringement of the same.

In addition, under U.S. Federal Criminal law, you may face criminal sanctions, including imprisonment and fines (18 U.S.C. §2319).
In the interest of avoiding costly legal proceedings, we demand that you:
1. immediately and permanently cease posting any WWE images and/or footage on your
www.pwtorrents.net website, and agree not to post any WWE copyrighted works, now or in the future;
2. immediately remove WWE copyrighted images and footage from your
