From the Office of Edgar Excellence

Meow and greetings to all you cats and kittens, the Excellence fans! I am your Administrator of Excellence, Edgar Excellence!
The Excellence Office is closed today in honor of Thanksgiving. Last night, I celebrated my own personal tradition of watching a marathon of old Survivor Series pay-per-views, which I’ve been doing since I was a kitten. Then on Thanksgiving itself, I will spend today eating as much turkey as I can steal off the table, napping, and giving thanks! And I do truly have much to purr about!
First and most importantly, I’m thankful for all our excellent fans. Because of your support, Excellence has grown far beyond my litter box and wildest dreams to bring you the best wrestling and wrestlers in the world each month. At “20% Gratuity” we had our biggest crowd ever! Over 200 of you packed the Forrest Lodge to see us! Thank you for coming every month, bringing your friends and family, watching our shows, and spreading the word about Excellence.
Also from feline to human, I am very thankful for and proud of the Excellence roster and crew. Thank you everyone for your hard work, dedication, and devotion to Excellence, our fans, and being the best you can be!
I mentioned these fine folks on my Facebook, but they deserve to be acknowledged and thanked again because they also help make Excellence happen!
– Forrest Lodge VFW for giving us a great venue and home!
– Darren Championship Gold for creating the work of art that is our Championship!
– Amerikick Lansdale for the awesome intermission demos and your support!
– The great people at Chikara Pro for all your help!
– Leigh Valley Creations for printing our shirts!
– Hodgson’s Quick Printing for all the things we need printed!
– And to all the local businesses that allow us to hang posters and promote our shows!
Like I mentioned, “20% Gratuity” was a huge success! One Night Only and The Batiri proved they are two of the best tag teams in professional wrestling. Their match became an instant contender for Excellence’s “Match of the Year”. If you couldn’t be in Sellersville, be sure to watch the match on video. The Turkey Tumbler Gauntlet was a wild affair full of surprises and unexpected twists. At the end of Icarus and Hallowicked’s match, there was a shocking betrayal and the night ended with a brawl all over the Forrest Lodge that emptied the locker room!
Based on the aftermath of “20% Gratuity”, I signed two matches for our first show of 2016! On January 23rd, Ariela Nyx will lead Nick the Silent Assassin and Matt Sells against ONO! This will be their first time teaming together, but they are motivated for revenge after a sneak attack by Gangone and Quen at “20% Gratuity”!
The Prince of Goblins, Kobald was victorious in his return against Qefka the Quiet, but will have a huge challenge when he meets The Boar of Moldova. These two battled during the brawl at “20% Gratuity”. In January, they will fight to see who has the best spear. Will Kobald be able to flush the Boar or will Boar gore him back out of action? And speaking of Boar, Oleg the Usurper is still missing in action since his war with Boar at “Check Please!”
The Excellence Pro Championship was unveiled at “20% Gratuity”. If you haven’t seen it, here’s a picture. The wrestler who wins the Excellence Championship Series will get to hold it.
Speaking of the Series, Hallowicked is the first entrant after earning his 10th win against Icarus! After “20% Gratuity”, here are the standings: The Boar and Smiley have 9 wins; Dan Champion and Gran Akuma have 8; Oleg and Icarus have 7 wins each; Blind Rage and Ken Broadway have 5 wins; Argus and Sasha Jenkins have 2 wins; and Havoc has 1 win.
Love Excellence and need more in your life? We have a Facebook Page and Twitter, so be sure to like and follow us. We also have a YouTube channel featuring footage from Excellence Live, 5 Minute Matches, and other videos for you to watch anytime, day or night.
Don’t forget to friend me, Edgar Excellence, on Facebook. I don’t bite, although I do occasionally scratch! Also, visit our website at frequently for more Excellence updates and missives from me, the Head Cat of Excellence.
Until next time…Meow and Happy Thanksgiving!

The Calm Before: 20% Gratuity


As I write this, we are 24 hours removed from the time in which some of the most excellence fans in the world would embark on their journey to the Forrest Lodge in Sellersville. Some might be enjoying a meal before making their trek to the Home of Excellence. As for me, 24 hours from now I will be on the edge of my seat awaiting the closing remarks that the men and women of Excellence Professional Wrestling will make with their competitive voices to close out the 2015 Campaign.
It’s all about the Excellence Championship and it all starts with the Turkey Tumbler. As a nod to our first November event’s clever name, Edgar Excellence has created the most inventive way to allow Excellence’s stars to rise from the basement to the terrace in regards to the Excellence Championship Series standings. As of this writing, there are 12 superstars announced for this match. That means that someone like Rembrandt Lewis (who has been held winless in singles competition) could max out at wins should he win the Tumbler. But he would have to defeat each competitor in his path! The way the Turkey Tumbler works is that each win that is picked up in the gauntlet style match will count towards their final totals. You will definitely want to settle in because the Excellence Professional Wrestling scene could (and probably will) change by the end of the night.
On top of the Turkey Tumbler, we still have 5 great matches on the card, including two that could main event anywhere that wrestling is on the marquee.
On one side of the coin, the unconquered tandem of One Night Only looks to put perfection on the line once more as they take on a most demonic duo in the form of Kodama and Obariyon, The Batiri! While The Batiri will be making their Excellence Pro debut and will be stepping up to the plate against what some may say is the hottest thing going in Sellersville, they have every intent to cause chaos and play spoiler to One Night Only’s storybook reign of supremacy in tag team action. Will the self-proclaimed King of Strikes, Anthony Gangone, be able to attack his way out of The Seventh Circle? Will Marq Quen connect with enough CQC (Close Quen Combat) to avoid a good Skull Bronzing?
The opposite, two of Excellence Pro’s most decorated athletes go toe to toe as our very own “Winged Ring Warrior” Icarus attempts to play spoiler of the championship aspirations of “The Nightmare Warrior” Hallowicked. ‘Wicked does have 9 victories, making him one short of locking in his place in the Excellence Championship Series. Icarus is not far behind with 7 victories. Can Icarus soar to new heights and triumph over a familiar face or will Hallowicked add Icarus’ name to the list of the vanquished who he laid to rot?
Please don’t forget the returns of Damian Adams and Kobald, the debuts of Qefka the Quiet and Matty Ice, Too Many Cooks will be serving up the good eats and Vanity looks to settle a score with “Lady Excellence” Deonna Purrazzo!
20% Gratuity is sure to answer a ton of questions that 2015 wrote. Will our final chapter of this year write more questions? I know I’ll be there. Will you?
