Summary
- Adin Ross has confirmed his continued commitment to Kick, stating he'll remain on the platform "for good."

- He hints at "bigger" plans for the future on the platform.
Adin Ross, the popular and sometimes controversial streamer, has ended speculation about his future by confirming he intends to stay with Kick indefinitely. After a period of absence in 2024 that led to rumors of a potential move away from the platform, Ross’s recent return with a new livestream solidified his commitment to Kick. He's not just staying; he's got ambitious plans for the future.
Ross, who joined Kick after a permanent ban from Twitch in 2023, played a significant role in the platform's rise to prominence alongside other high-profile streamers like xQc. While 2023 was successful for him on Kick, his abrupt departure early in 2024 sparked rumors of a rift with Kick CEO Ed Craven. These rumors proved unfounded.
During a December 21, 2024 livestream with Craven, Ross confirmed his intention to remain on Kick, reversing months of speculation suggesting otherwise. He further reassured fans in a recent tweet, promising a return and pledging to "stay for good this time." This return materialized on the weekend of January 4, 2025, marking his first livestream in 74 days, alongside Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy.
Adin Ross Will Stick with Kick and Has "Bigger" Plans to Announce
Ross’s tweet also hinted at "something even bigger" in the works, though details remain undisclosed. Many fans believe this relates to his Brand Risk boxing events, a project he aims to expand with Kick's support. Given previous legal issues with Misfits Boxing in early 2024 stemming from unsanctioned events, future Brand Risk ventures will likely focus on avoiding similar pitfalls.
Ross's decision is a significant boost for both his fanbase and Kick, which is aggressively pursuing growth through deals with major streamers. Kick co-founder Bijan Tehrani recently stated their ambition to either surpass or acquire Twitch—an ambitious goal, but one that seems increasingly plausible given their current momentum.
