Popular video streaming platform Rumble announced a major coup today, securing a deal with top-tier gaming streamer Dr Disrespect. Known for his over-the-top persona, signature mullet, and dominating gameplay in titles like Call of Duty and PUBG, Dr Disrespect will bring his “Champions Club” community to Rumble, offering exclusive content on Rumble Premium.
The deal, which includes equity in Rumble with performance-based milestones, marks a significant investment in the platform’s gaming vertical. Dr Disrespect will not only stream on Rumble but also act as an advisor, helping to shape the future of Rumble Gaming.
“Rumble is in a new era, and I’m laser-focused on expanding into two categories: gaming and crypto,” said Rumble Chairman and CEO Chris Pavlovski. “Dr Disrespect will give a much-needed injection into our gaming category.”
Dr Disrespect, who previously streamed on Twitch and YouTube, boasts a massive and dedicated following. His move to Rumble is a major win for the platform, which has been steadily growing its user base and expanding its content offerings.
Fans can catch Dr Disrespect’s first Rumble stream on December 2nd, 2024. He will continue to offer free content on the platform, with exclusive content and community features available to paid subscribers. To celebrate the partnership, Rumble is offering a $10 discount to new subscribers of Dr Disrespect’s community with the promo code VSM.
This strategic move by Rumble signals its ambition to become a major player in the gaming streaming space. With Dr Disrespect leading the charge, Rumble Gaming is poised to attract a new wave of creators and viewers to the platform.
The news comes on the heels of Rumble’s launch of its dedicated gaming X handle, @GamingOnRumble, which provides updates and highlights gaming content on the platform. With this latest high-profile signing, Rumble is clearly making a bold statement about its commitment to the gaming community.
