NICKMERCS added that he did contribute quite a lot to the early stages of 100 Thieves but was never fully recognized for his efforts, also claiming that Braun was not present for much of the matters that he spoke on, sharing that “he came in way later.”
However, he also admitted that he does not hold any resentment towards Nadeshot for his actions behind the scenes or the public drama that ensued: “Matt was in a tough spot, I’ve admitted that you know, It was a very difficult spot to be in and I feel for the dude, it was not easy but its part of being of the boss.”
