Twitch streamer Tyler ‘Trainwreckstv’ Niknam, however had a different rant which left even the officials of ‘The Streamer Awards’and QTCinderella in astonishment. The streamer known for his bold takes replied to xQc’s tweet claiming, “all mainstream award shows thus far are monopolized circle je*ks.”
