Summary
- Adin Ross recently assured fans that he intends to stay on Kick “for good.”
- Ross abruptly disappeared from Kick in 2024, sparking rumors about the streamer possibly exiting the platform.
- The rumors turned out false, as Ross returned to Kick with a new livestream last weekend and apparently has “bigger” plans for the future.
Adin Ross has confirmed that he plans to stay on Kick “for good.” The former Twitch streamer had supposedly been toying around with the idea of moving away from Kick, but after making his highly anticipated return to the platform recently, it seems Ross is committed to staying the course, that too with ambitious plans for the future.
As one of the most popular and controversial streamers worldwide, Adin Ross joined Kick following his permanent ban from Twitch in 2023. His switch to the then-nascent streaming platform, alongside other content creators like xQc, hugely benefited Kick’s rise to prominence. Ross enjoyed a successful run on Kick throughout 2023, but 2024 saw him abruptly stepping away from the platform, leaving fans uncertain about his next move. This gave rise to reports of a potential falling-out between Ross and Kick CEO Ed Craven, but it appears the rumors were unfounded.

Adin Ross Responds to Kick CEO’s Remarks on His Rumored Departure
Adin Ross fires back at Kick CEO’s remarks regarding rumors of his potential departure, escalating speculation about his future with the platform.
During a livestream with Craven on December 21, 2024, Ross confirmed that he intends to stay on Kick after all, seemingly pulling a 180 after he hinted at an indefinite departure from the streaming platform for months. Now, Ross has reassured fans in a recent tweet that he’ll return to Kick and “stay for good this time.” The weekend of January 4, 2025, saw Ross livestream for the first time in 74 days alongside fellow content creators Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy. Now that Ross plans to remain with Kick for the foreseeable future, speculation of him potentially moving to other streaming platforms can be put to rest.
Adin Ross Will Stick with Kick and Has “Bigger” Plans to Announce
Adding to the excitement of Ross’ return, his tweet also teased that he has “something even bigger” in the works, but details around these future plans are currently shrouded in mystery. Many fans believe this could have something to do with Ross’ Brand Risk boxing events, which he previously described as a key project he aims to expand with Kick’s backing. Ross previously faced legal trouble with Misfits Boxing over unsanctioned boxing events in early 2024, so one can only hope that future Brand Risk ventures don’t experience the same pitfalls.
Ross’ decision to persist with Kick is no doubt a welcome relief for both his fans and the streaming platform, which has been working its way up thanks to deals with hugely popular content creators. Co-founder Bijan Tehrani stated a few months ago that Kick ultimately wants to either beat or buy Twitch. The goal may be rather lofty, but given Kick’s current trajectory, it isn’t entirely out of the realm of reason.
