Adin Ross Remains Committed to Kick, Hints at Major Future Plans
Popular streamer Adin Ross has officially confirmed his long-term commitment to the Kick streaming platform, ending months of speculation about his departure. Ross's unexpected absence from Kick earlier in 2024 sparked widespread rumors, but his recent return with a new livestream, alongside fellow creators, confirms his intention to stay "for good."
Ross, known for his significant online presence and sometimes controversial content, joined Kick after a permanent ban from Twitch in 2023. His move, along with other high-profile streamers like xQc, played a crucial role in Kick's rapid growth. While 2023 was a successful year for Ross on the platform, his sudden absence in 2024 fueled speculation, including rumors of a rift with Kick CEO Ed Craven. However, a December 21, 2024 livestream with Craven dispelled these rumors, confirming Ross's continued partnership with Kick. A subsequent tweet further solidified this commitment. His return to streaming on the weekend of January 4, 2025, after a 74-day hiatus, alongside Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy, marked a significant milestone.
Big Plans on the Horizon
Ross's announcement also hinted at significant upcoming projects. While specifics remain undisclosed, many fans speculate these plans involve his Brand Risk boxing events, which he intends to expand with Kick's support. Given past legal challenges with Misfits Boxing in early 2024, the success of future Brand Risk ventures will be closely watched.
Ross's decision is a significant boost for both his fanbase and Kick itself. Kick, aiming for dominance in the streaming market, has been actively pursuing deals with top-tier content creators. As stated by co-founder Bijan Tehrani, their ambitious goal is to either surpass or acquire Twitch. Given Kick's current momentum and the retention of key streamers like Ross, this goal appears increasingly attainable.
