EXCEL ESPORTS is pleased to announce that 14-year old Jackson ‘ Rezhexx’ Bradbury will be joining the team as its newest Fortnite content creator. Following the youngster beating Fortnite professional player Wolfiez at an open tournament at Insomnia in April, EXCEL decided to sign Rezhexx shortly after.

This April at the UK’s biggest gaming festival Insomnia, aspiring professional gamer and content creator Jackson ‘Rezhexx’ Bradbury took part in an open Fortnite tournament going against EXCEL ESPORTS’ pro player Jaden ‘Wolfiez’ Ashman. Dominating the tournament and beating out Wolfiez, EXCEL took notice of Rezhexx’s potential and offered him a role at the organisation shortly after.

Rezhexx joins EXCEL as a content creator, where he will film Fortnite gameplay, tips & tricks and him competing in upcoming tournaments. He will also be creating content around daily life on the coast in Cornwall and his other passion in life, surfing.

A lover of gaming and Fortnite in particular, Rezhexx began creating content during the pandemic lockdown on his mobile phone for his group of friends and also sharing clips on Instagram. He then began playing Fortnite live on Twitch and his follower count continues to grow every day due to his fun and engaging personality.
The signing follows a string of heavyweight content creator signings for EXCEL including League of Legends caster and creator Marc Robert “Caedrel” Lamont and variety streamer Leah ‘Leah’ Leahviathan.

EXCEL ESPORTS Talent Manager, Freeman Williams comments: “We’re thrilled to announce Rezhexx as our newest content creator. Signing Jackson was an easy decision – he’s clearly very skilled at Fortnite, constantly on the lookout for content to capture, and this is all mixed in with a keen can-do attitude – which we love to see. At EXCEL, we want to provide a home for all types of content creators. You can be a micro-influencer or a big-time creator; it doesn’t matter. All you need to possess is a great attitude, a clear path of progression and a personality that matches EXCEL and our aspirations – and we believe Rezhexx is a perfect fit.”

EXCEL ESPORTS new content creator Jackson ‘ Rezhexx’ Bradbury comments: “I’m really excited to be joining EXCEL as their newest content creator. I’ve been following the team closely over the last few years and believe their players and style are some of the best. I also really like the way EXCEL’s content creators edit their video and believe I can learn a lot from Wolfiez, Leah and Caedrel.”

Thunderpick, the leading esports betting platform delivering fans cutting-edge tools and experiences, announced that FURIA has emerged victorious at the Thunderpick World Championship 2025 — one of the tournament’s most competitive editions yet, featuring four of the world’s top 10 ranked teams. FURIA takes home the $500,000 first-place prize, with KSCERATO earning his first Grand Final MVP.

FURIA’s steady performance and relentless focus were on full display throughout the tournament, culminating in a Finals victory over Natus Vincere. After NAVI went up two maps to zero, FURIA did what many thought was impossible and completed a dominant reverse sweep with a 13:1 on the decisive map.

Natus Vincere finished second place, earning $150,000. The MongolZ, who won the Thunderpick World Championship last year, finished third after defeating Aurora earlier in the day, receiving $70,000 and $50,000, respectively. Venom, 9z, Imperial and OG all placed fifth through eighth, taking home $20,000 each.

“It is a privilege to congratulate FURIA as the Thunderpick World Champions! This tournament was thrilling, featuring exceptional gameplay. The success of our World Championship is thanks to the incredible teams, streamers, partners, staff, and everyone behind the scenes who made it possible, as well as the passionate fans who make this event so special,” said Kelly Sanders, Head of Strategy at Thunderpick.

This year marks the third consecutive Thunderpick World Championship. Last year, The MongolZ stunned HEROIC to claim their third international title of the season, cementing their status on the global CS2 stage. In 2023, FaZe Clan took the crown after defeating Virtus.pro, with Robin “ropz” Kool earning the MVP title. The TWC 2025 Finals are presented in collaboration with Hotspawn, a leading hub for esports news and analysis.
