In 2019, Watkins started streaming. His fans posted videos on TikTok showing his violent behavior during livestreams toward gamers and other players. These videos gained attention and became memes. His outbursts have led to suspensions from streaming platform Twitch and video game Valorant. Kotaku described Watkins as "one of the largest and fastest-growing streamers" on YouTube. One game that has played a role in his rise in popularity is Talking Ben. The videos of Talking Ben the Dog of Watkins are credited with bringing the app to new heights of popularity. Bradley wrote a text-to speech donation asking Watkins, "Which soccer/football club do you favor?" Speed smiled and responded, "Cristiano Ronaldo sewey" in a resemblance to Ronaldo's famous goal celebration. This drew a lot of attention and led Watkins to start supporting Ronaldo and to make him part of his own identity. Speed would eventually meet Bradley in the month of November 2022.
