Adin Ross Recommits to Kick, Hints at "Bigger" Plans
Popular streamer Adin Ross has confirmed his long-term commitment to the Kick streaming platform, putting to rest rumors of his departure. After a mysterious absence in 2024 that fueled speculation about a potential exit, Ross's recent return with a new livestream alongside Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy marks a significant shift. His statement, "stay for good this time," assures fans of his continued presence on the platform.
Ross, known for his controversial yet engaging content, joined Kick following a Twitch ban in 2023. His move, along with other high-profile streamers like xQc, significantly contributed to Kick's rapid growth. While he experienced success on Kick in 2023, his sudden departure earlier in 2024 sparked rumors of a rift with Kick CEO Ed Craven. However, a December 21, 2024 livestream with Craven dispelled these rumors, confirming Ross's intention to remain.
Beyond his return, Ross hinted at "something even bigger" on the horizon. Speculation centers on his Brand Risk boxing events, a project he intends to expand with Kick's support. Given past legal challenges with Misfits Boxing earlier in 2024, the success of future Brand Risk ventures will be closely watched.
Ross's decision is a boon for both Kick and his fanbase. Kick, co-founded by Bijan Tehrani, has ambitious goals, aiming to either surpass or acquire Twitch. With its current momentum and the continued presence of top-tier streamers like Ross, this ambitious goal seems increasingly attainable.
