Adin Ross Recommits to Kick, Hints at "Bigger" Plans
Popular streamer Adin Ross has definitively ended speculation about his future, confirming his intention to remain on the Kick streaming platform long-term. Ross's recent absence from Kick, spanning several months in 2024, fueled rumors of a potential departure. However, his return with a new livestream alongside Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy on the weekend of January 4, 2025, marked a decisive shift. This followed a December 21, 2024 livestream with Kick CEO Ed Craven where Ross solidified his commitment.
Ross's move to Kick from Twitch in 2023, following a permanent ban, significantly contributed to Kick's rapid growth. While his 2023 run on Kick was successful, his unexplained hiatus in 2024 sparked considerable uncertainty and speculation, including rumors of discord with platform leadership. These rumors now appear unfounded.
Ross's recent tweet not only confirms his continued presence on Kick but also teases "something even bigger" on the horizon. While specifics remain undisclosed, many fans anticipate this relates to his Brand Risk boxing events, a project he's expressed a desire 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 significant boost for both his fanbase and Kick itself. Kick, co-founded by Bijan Tehrani, has aggressively pursued growth by signing high-profile streamers, aiming to either surpass or acquire Twitch—an ambitious but potentially achievable goal given its current momentum.
